I would think it would sound like a huge exhaust leak.



What happened to an exhaust actually sounding tuned??? Seems most people just want loud, so loud that you can't hear **** in the truck!

Like always, to each, his own...

I have heard a few around here with just cats and no muffler. It is abnoxiously loud when you lay on it good. But the tone sounds like crap to me. Really raspy. Like an old big block with glasspacks. But to each his own...

So the other day i let my friend take her for a spin, and he did a drive by for me, and now i see what you guys mean. It's definatly louder than i thought.

Now since i have switched from the side dumps to straight out the back, i cant get both sides lining up properly. One side is on an angle out and further away from the middle. I want to play around with them but some how one of the connections has bonded together, even though i used anti seize on it.

What are some ways/tips to make this connection loosen up??

thanks

Sorry for the delay. It's like WD-40 on Steroids! It's PB Blaster, I goofed up the spelling on the first go.
