Definitely going to have to agree that it's the best sound I've heard off an ecoboost. Love that you can hear a bit of the turbo in there now. Can't wait to hear it once you get your AFE on. And agreed with everyone else. Do a couple drive bys/accelerations.

p.s. Still like my V8 better :P lol

Is there a diagram you can put up with measurements and such I might do the same thing. Is your truck exhaust a 145" or bigger? What will sell me is if there is no drone on highway speeds. It does have a deep rumble. Also do you plan on dyno'ing it to see if there were any gains? Probably to late since you used your stock exhaust to do this.

that sounds excellent. its the most non-wussy sounding ecoboost i've heard to date. but all that matters is you are happy.

I have doubts. The Flowmaster Super 10 is the loudest muffler Flowmaster makes. I have a feeling that in person it might sound pretty obnoxious. Although this clip does sound good I would like to hear take off and cruising speeds.

Hey guys sorry about the delayed response. I did do one video this week in the cab while I was driving. It is short but you will get the just of it. The sound isn't obnoxious but it is full bodied. A tiny bit of rice sound creeps in at 2500 rpm and during shifting. Anything from 3,000 over is very cummins diesel-like. Under 2,500 hundred is unique enough I can't describe it... mix of a v8 and a ducati twin. TONS of turbo though which is why I love it! Ill post the in cab video tonight or tomorrow and I'll take an outside pull this weekend.

If I get enough free time ill make some technical drawing of the configuration... but until then this description should help.

Cut the pipe off of the back side if the flange after the cats. Cut the pipe at the back of the muffler. Weld a piece of 3" pipe, flex pipe and flowmaster 10 series in line to fill the gap of what you just cut out. Make a few hangers and enjoy the forced induction symphony!

Why would you do the same thing? Don't you have the SOLO exhaust on your truck? Thought you loved it as I saw you were a big propenent of it when it was still in development..

I like the sound of this. Then I have always been partial to Flowmaster sound. IMO, nothing sounds better than a cammed up V8 with Flowmasters... mmmm... My 76 has long tubes, dual 3" and super 44's. LOVE the sound.

I am also curious about this Pong. If you think the Solo duals are too quiet, it may be the performance exhaust I've been looking for. I would like maximum gains with minium sound. A sleeper if you will.

Sounds mean to me. Can you take a couple pictures of the new parts?
