Straight Exhaust
Hey guys, I see alot of diffrent exhaust combinations on here. Personally I like the sound of a straight-custom exhaust. I manufactured mine, myself, and am very pleased with the sound!! I was just wondering....am I the only person to use a non-muffler exhaust?

I have a non muffler exhaust when my cut-outs are open and I lover the way its osunds. I had straight exhaust with an x-pipe exiting out the rear at 45* angles but I hated it, it sounded too redneck for me and when outside the truck it sounded like a damn bubble machine.

I have High-Flow Cats on my stock y-pipe into 1 3inch tube that runs about 2.5 to 3 feet. Then I built a 3inch inlet/2 1/4 outlet custom Y pipe. The Y runs dual 2 1/4 pipes into 4 inch tips. Sounds great!!

My first exhaust system on my truck was true duals with straight pipes and 4 in. tips. I had the muffler shop cut the y-pipe after the cats and run two 2.25 in. pipes out the back @ 45 degree angles. I have since put mufflers on it cuz I lost my lowend being it was on a stock motor. I really miss that sound though; it was mean as hell. I agree with it being redneck sounding; but I guess I am a little bit of a redneck.
