has anybody ever put like a 6 inch diameter tip on there dual exhaust? since i did the body lift, the pipes arent hugging the bumper like before, so i was thinking of putting a bigger tip on. like a 6 inch. but im curious as to how they sound, and if anybody has done it. and if anybody has any ideas for it. i have 18x3 inch tips. i was thinking of adding the bigger tip to my tips now. so if you have any ideas for me let me know!

 

I would go no bigger than a 4" outlet tip. 18" x 14" SS tips would look great. Maybe see if the pipes could be moved up more?

 

yeah i looked under there and they are welded right to the mounts. so i guess i could break the weld then re-weld it back up higher. but its hare cuz the frame and everything didnt move, just the rear bumper so it would have to go up about 3 inches, i will look again, the 6 inch tip was just a compramise to the gap. an easy fix i guess. haha ill look at raising them up cuz that might be easiest over all.

 

Sounds good man

 

The hassle with getting mine raised 3 inches ended up with me getting dual turn-downs right before the axle. At first I was worried, but now I love it. Loud as all get out, and sets off car alarms all the time (thats just my taste). You are running no mufflers so I can tell you like loud too.

Like it was said.. Dont put 6" tips. I have heard 4" and the truck sounded awesome, but that guy had a whole set-up.

 

Ive got 4's on mine...love the sound.

6" = riceroni.

 

Preach it brother

 

Yeah, 6" would just be ridiculous. Either get some tail pipes bent at a muffler shop for fairly cheap, or dump it.

 

Call me biased, but dumps are the shizzz. Then again duals changes things.

 

yess the tone of the long tips on my truck is awsome, but i dont think it would be near the same if i dumped it. that would be awsome though. anybody have dump valves? where you could be running the duals out the back or even stock, and tyou have a trigger that opens a valve to just straight pipes? ive heard a vw r32 with dump valves and it was awsome!

 

I have heard of a couple guys over on the mustang forum with those things. haha, that would be sweet on a F150.

Personally I have mine SI/DO Flowmaster dumped at the rear axle, it's alright. I plan to replace the muffler with a Magnaflow and run a tip powder coated flat black out in front of the passanger rear tire.

 

Your problem is the slowmasters.
I am just kidding, and I have used flowmasters and they are great mufflers. However, if you want more noise then you need high flows or a different muffler. You probably have a 4 chamber where as I have dynaflow "air max's" which is a 2 chamber. Its alot louder.

Only bad thing is that the 2 chamber replaced loud with all that grow-lish tone that I had with the flowmasters

 

double post

 

i wonder how hard it is to install those valves, or else like make a manual one with a little lever you could pull and it would just open the valve. like put the lever through the floor or the firewall somehow. that would be awsome!!
