Still sounds like a ricer with a fart can when you add an exhaust. It sounds like a nice ricer, but it still sounds like a ricer. If you want sound, get a V8. As long as you are OK with a quieter truck, then the Eco's are awesome.

Would hate to see a BA Raptor pass me on the freeway, to only have it fart in my ear on the way by.

butt....it doesn't.

My 500whp mazdaspeed3 didn't sound anything like a 'ricer', and it was 2.3L 4-banger. And, course, i'm sure there were many negative opinions of the exhaust sound by all the cars that got passed...

Obviously you're letting your opinion get in the way of fact, but that's ok.

Leave it stock, or put a 3.5 XLT system on it.
Clearly, you've never heard a Honda before.




Just saying, it's clear you hate anything but a V8 with ignorant posts like this. Welcome to the new world fellas, V8s are a dying breed.

No, "clearly", I've heard lots of Hondas, etc.

LOL! Hell, even the horse at his first turn around was looking at the hooded angel of stupid like "WTF"!!!!! Like the first time wasn't what he expected. Per ol' Uncle Albert, "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"
Sounded a lot like the hive of bees my neighbour tends.

Rice is nice, in food. LOL
Nope, don't hate everything but a V8. A RR Merlin is the sexiest engine I've ever heard, and an olde double row Wright, or an Allison ain't bad either.
And, I've got a V6, 3.0 Ranger, with custom exhaust, why it doesn't sound like rice, I'll never know.

I would say this one is not bad for a V6, but it will never be the V8 sound people want. Its too bad some genius can't invent a muffler that will make a V6 sound like a V8; he would be rich.
