well firstly id recommend you stop shouting at your feet.

secondly, if you like the way the trucks on youtube sound, so the exhaust mods theyve done. no one here has had every muffler out there on one truck.

it seems no one can make an orignal post these days....everything is H/C/I/E related. and its always the same question.

It is impossible for written words to come even remotely close to describing what something sounds like much less what it might sound like when it's "what if".

It is going to sound like what it sounds like. No more, no less.

A muffler "muffles"...that is what it does. When one changes to a big "performance" muffler it usually "muffles" less than a stock muffler. I don't know of any way one can maintain the same "sound" only much louder because then it is no longer the same sound. I think you are looking for something that does not exist.

when i was doing my exhaust, i fired it up with the stock open manifold (nothing after the stock mani) just to hear it, and it had the same tone, it was just louder. Im sure ill get flamed for this (i dont care, so take your best shot) but i wasnt really impressed with it. Alot of guys seem to think that a 300 with an open header is some dope-***, waking-the-dead beast, and its just not. Regardless, if you want it to be louder with the same tone, i'd say run no muffler at all. straight pipe. Cat or no cat, wont really matter that much. Theres just not enough going on here to have the muffler drastically change the sound.

Am i the only one sick of guys on here butchering the english language? im sure ill never get that to change, but still, is there a problem with it the way it is? Maverick, man, come on....
