Black FX2 SCREW
My '13 FX2 is the only truck I haven't had exhaust on... And in case y'all haven't noticed, step into the throttle on the 5.0's... It's got a pretty good sound...
Granted, I cut the tip off and dumped over my axle - think that woke it up a little bit...

You wanted to know why & how for me here it is:
I'am 51, For Me it all started in my teenage years, grew up around my Dad's Trucks & heavy equipment Dozers and Graders and then Operating them and loved the loud sound and the power.
At 16 my first Exhaust was my 1972 GMC 1/2ton, we put a 350LT1 in and Hooker Headers & Glass Pack Mufflers which were also called Blue Bottles came in 3 size's and I put my exhaust just in front of the rear wheels It was very loud and sounded great!!!!!!!!!! and I was hooked ever since. Not to mention my Brother in-law owned a Garage and sold Superior Muffler, and everyone I knew my age was getting it done, when I was a kid my Dad had a 56 gmc stepside and had dual side pipe's coming up the back of the cab and it was so cool as a kid. So its been around my whole Life since I was a kid, and I loved the sound on my Muscle cars I had, and my buddies trying to out do each other for sound, at that time putting more bends in the snapper it sounded, not realizing the restriction it caused to some that were doing it with the Bends.
I purly love it for the sound and If I gain any Hp or mpg's so much the better, I love the Rappp it makes
I plan to put on Solo Performance Mach duals out the side's with dual tips, like the low quiet exhaust they have, plus I can put a larger spare under there when Im done. Im running 34" now and plan to go bigger.....

LMAO
I actually did that on my very first car, I was 16 and had a 76 Honda Civic, I also had a boombox in the back seat that had an external mic jack for recording to cassette, I got a mic with a long cable and attached it to the frame right next to the muffler. Sounded kewl as hell.That was my version of having a fart can on an import.
hey I was only 16 after all. .

My friend here at work has a Viper truck, and the prevoious owner upgraded the exhaust on that. That is one bad truck, but I know the only thing he hauls with it is nothing but pure untainted A**! I would have to say that truck will give most a run for their money, maybe even a Challenger SRT8. lol! Yes a lot of us just mainly do a exhaust because its just the right thing to do, that one sweet touch to compliment a very fine vehicle. O and I do love the challenger, looks really sweet.

[MENTION=134559]Rnlcomp[/MENTION] LOL This is so so funny. It reminds me of stuff we did back in the day. We use to put boomboxes and the regular stereo house speakers in our car so we can play music. My first car was a 1977 Chevy Chevette and it only had AM radio. With the boom box we could play our cassette tapes, go to the park and hang out and listen to music.
should we high jack this one and turn it into "share your first car/ teenage experiences" ?Lol
These two last posts, bring back so many memories.... Lol
My magnaflow is STILL awesome...
