Here's mine. I just cut the muffler out in these videos. I cut my cat out a few weeks ago but I ended up putting it back in. It just didn't seem to run right.

well what kind of loud? (i know sounds like a stupid question) theres just all out obnoxious sounds like someone put a metal garbage can over your head and is banging on it with a baseball bat, or theres toned, or you can have it rap.

heres what id do;

All out: long tube header with 3" straight pipe with as few bends as possible (one going out at a 45* on each side)

Toned: headers of choice, hi-flow cat, glass pack (have it clamped in as they tend to blow out in a couple months and just become expantion chambers and kinda sound like crap)

Rapping: there's two ways of going about this one,
1.) 2.25" true duals (will rap literally all the time)
2.) Shorty headers, 2.25" head pipes, 2.25" D/I 3" S/O hi flow cat, 3" straight back

Option 2.) for rapping is whats done to my truck, comes in around 2,200 RPM rapping and around 3,800 RPM it kinda cleans up and sounds realllllyyyyyy goood lol

I'd get rid of that boat muffler, get a high flow cat, and have a local exhaust shop run a straight pipe into a x or y out for duals.

Sounds great with a 5.2L or a 5.9L Magnum.

If you have a corrupt police system like out where i live, be careful they will go under your truck an check for a muffler...

Time for a chill out session guys.

Not cool.

Besides, ask any cop and they'll tell you that pig stands for pride, intelligence, and guts.

All the BS has been deleted. Enough with the ATTACKS as well! Take it to PMs if you need, but keep it off the open forum!

Who makes a cat like this? This is what I was looking for when I did mine but never found one.

What's corrupt about them going under your truck. If you have a noise ordinance like where I live they have the right to do so.

If anything though, just lift your truck that way they don't have to 'crawl' under the truck.

Focus on making you truck sound GOOD,. Almost every straight piped engine sounds like garbage, loud doesn't equal good.
