Would this sound good?

ok i have a 92 f-150 with a glasspack on it with pipes goin out through the rear. a while back ago i was hauling a pretty good load of feed and i was out at out barn and hit a low spot in the drive and it smashed my pipes a little. ive lived with it for a while and here latly it has kind been gettin on my nevers. i was wonderin if it would sound as good if i just cut the pipes off right after the glasspack at the Y pipe? Or what are some othere suggestions on what to do?

wheather is sounds good or not is up to you but if you don't like the smashed pipes its just as well to get rid of them. Try it and if you don't like it just go get new tails.

It would sound like a straight pipe if you busted the guts out of it. Just pull the muffler off if you want to hear the diff. Fordboy, he is talking about the Y where it splits from the muffler into 2 tail pipes not the headerpipe (Y pipe) at the engine.

hows that sound? If you pull the glasspack it will just attract the cops attention.
