I like that look! Does it increase cab noise too though?

No it's not bad since It's a catback system with a muffler. It's held up really well over the last three years and took about 10 minutes to install after I cut my old stock system out. I love the look and it sounds great!

well guy's I had time this past week to replace my exhaust. we had a ton of 3" pipe laying around the shop getting ready to go to the scrap yard. so I took me some and made an exhaust system. I ran roughly 4.5 ft of 3" pipe from the stock Y, and had it come out right before the rear passenger tire. Took my old 3" stainless tips cut them down/polished and installed them on the Y pipe I made. had to buy some clamps, so all in all spent about $8 on an exhaust.
*went on a 700 mile round trip to Missouri with the wife for the 4th, and I must say this thing is mean sounding. But cruising for 5hrs it gets annoying after awhile with that drone. The Mrs. says i need to put a muffler on it.. ehh..i told her to wear ear plugs..lol

I used to not be bothered with drone in the cabin, but now it gets annoying to me as well. Soon, I'm betting you'll be installing a muffler.

Should you decide to put in a muffler, something like a 5" round muffler with a 14" body might be a nice compromise. We actually use the 12867 muffler (with 3" in/out) in our Off-Road Pro Series cat-back, so that's a cost-effective way to get a similar sound without going for the whole cat-back exhaust, (You'd instead be using your own piping and tip(s)).





Generally, the bigger the muffler, the quieter the exhaust so a small 14" body should still leave plenty of exhaust note, especially when you mat the right pedal.
