Exhaust popping with just a new tip installed
Anyone else have this experience?
All I did was cut off the straight section of tailpipe and install a 2.5" inlet, 4" outlet exhaust tip. It sounds a bit deeper at idle and a little louder when I rev it, but when I let off the gas it pops pretty loud.
I remember hearing popping on decel on videos of trucks where aftermarket exhaust/mufflers were installed, but not just from a new tip.

Besides just what I could hear from inside the cab, I also took a before/after video. I couldn't hear any popping with the stock pipe, but you could be right. It may have been too quite to hear.
Just not sure if the popping is normal. I haven't had a gas powered truck for a long time and I don't remember my '81 Bronco or '75 F150 popping much, but they had loud exhaust (dual glasspacks and dual flowmasters).

Drove it around with the tip installed and couldn't get it to pop at all. I guess it only happens when free revving it.
Oh well. Just kinda strange.
