corky any way we could get a sound clip or video, accelerating away?

 

So when I go to the exhaust shop I'm going tell them: "I want the Flowmaster 40 Series muffler installed, and dumped 3 inches after the muffler with a 45 degree pipe facing the ground." About how much should I expect to be charged? I just need a ballpark so I don't go in there and get ripped off..... Thanks a lot for your help!

 

I paid $175.00 for a 40 series (1 in and 2 out) that was dumped about 12" past the muffler - just before the rear axle where you can see them between the rear wheel and the fender well. I wouldn't call the sound extremely loud, but it does sound like a big block. The best way I can describe it is that when you punch it, it sounds like its breathing. My favorite is when I start it up - it has a very distinctive growl.

I think you may want to go 12"-18" past the muffler, get it closer to the rear diff. You will get a lot of pops otherwise, like when you go from WOT to no gas, it will burble and pop as it slows down. 18" should prevent a lot of this.

 

Alright, thanks for your input....I don't really want it to pop, that would suck.

 

I forgot to ask one thing. What if I went in and had them do an exhaust system that has an exit infront of both rear tires? What do you guys think og that idea?

 

Exhaust exit in front of the rear tire may look cool, but sometimes it causes discoloration of the wheel/rim.

 

That's a really good point...I never thought of that, thanks......But now that I think of it, my rc truck has the exhaust exiting in front of the tires and the tires are discolored...

 

I had mine dumped after the axle. Still get the wave bounce off the pavement but doesn't flood the cab with drone. The pipes split on each side of the spare and are tucked up flush withthe spare and are welded to the frame. Looks great from underneath but is hidden at eye level. Sounds great!

 

I am going in Friday and as of now I'm going with the 18" past the muffler idea. Ant other ideas?
