Straight Pipe ???
So I put on the straight pipe today and got rid of the stock muffler. I love it so far except the flutter. Is there anyway to get rid of the flutter that I am hearing. I guess this is normal??

I've heard of that complaint before, so it happens if it's not "normal". I don't get any on my system (4" turbo back with muffler). Thinking about picking up the muffler delete pipe just to see (hear?) if I like it...

No, exhaust flutter when you're heading down the road.

I think the only way to get rid of the flutter is to put a muf on and who wants to do that let her roar.

Mine doesnt have the flutter, but I also took the whole rear section of pipe off. Slid it off from the connection in front of the muffler. I'll eventually get a 45 and run the pipe out in front of the tire.
