damn nowww i really wanna get exhaust on it haha

would a longer glasspack make it sound like a rice burner?

these engines are really picky with the exhaust i heard one yesterday that some kid put his own exhaust on, and it sounded so much like an import i almost chased him down to make sure that was a ford engine and not some import junk haha

yes a longer one will make it sound like ****,it also depends on the size of the pipe,i get more of a crack cause my exhaust diameter is smaller and my backfire is louder

My truck sounds pretty deep. I'd suggest you get 2.50'' pipes. Use the shortest glass pack you can.

Keep us updated!

I know what you guys are saying about getting funny looks. Everyone that sees has has to crack up. Im just wondering tho, is it because of the way it sounds or the fact that the rest of the truck is covered in mud and there's a nice shiney chrome stack sticking out of the bed? Haha

I was kind of disapointed when I started it for the first time when I heard the it wasn't nearly as deep as it had sounded when I was expermenting. Must be because I was using alot more flexpipe then. Oh well tho, it still sounds nice.

Sound clips coming soon!

Well mine is already rusty but it doesn't have any holes in it yet so I guess I'll use it until it does.


When it does I'll replace it with solid pipe.
