I just uploaded this to YouTube. I don't know how quickly it processes, but here is the link anyway.

sounds pretty good you shoulda done some quick throttle pops up to like 3500 or so so we could here it crackle like i know those mufflers like too[8D]i wanna do another one of mine without the camera shutting off this time. did you use a digital camera or a video camera...because my dad has a nice *** video camera but he refuses to buy the fire wire to upload things to the pc lol oh well.

 

mines louder....
but yours sounds real good

 

I used our digital camera. It's a Canon Powershot IS 3 I think (or something like that). It burns video right to the SD card, so transfers to the computer are as easy as downloading pictures. It'll capture video at 640x480 @ 30 FPS, but I had to dumb it down to 320x250 or something and @ 15 FPS to keep the file size in check.

I really like the sound. Like I said earlier, I was afraid it was going to be too loud, when the previous owner told me it had a Flowmaster muffler (I thought, "oh, great"). And it sounds real "barky" when it starts, but when you start driving, it's pretty low and mellow. Our previous vehicle with a 5.2L V-8 was a '96 Grand Cherokee, and we had a Borla exhaust on that, and it sounded real good -- a bit quieter and even smoother.

 

sounds great! sort of like i want. i like the deep rumble at idle. you think a single muffler would sound about the same? i mean if i just added the muffler to my stock single exhaust...

 

It would probably sound similar. Probably a bit quieter, but the tone would likely be close.

 

If you want a deep rumble without the popping, then yes, I would just add a muffler to your stock exhaust set up. If you go bigger pipe, you will lose torque. I tried a 40 series Flowmaster the first time, but I believe that the baffle design that Flowmaster uses causes the popping when decelerating. I then went with Magnaflow becuase they dont use the baffle design. Deeeep rumble, and hardly no popping. All you hear is pure engine, and that's what I like.

 

if you want rummble and POPS look at mine

 

If the P.O.'s records didn't say "Flowmaster 40-series muffler", I wouldn't even think it was. It's too quiet. As you can hear from the video, I barely get a burble out of it on deceleration, let alone popping. At cruise speed, you can barely hear it in the truck. I swear it's too quiet for a40-series, but that's what the sheet says.

Edit: I'm sure a 40-series would also sound different on a 3.7/4.7 compared with a 3.9/5.2/5.9 because of the different engine architecture.
