yeah.hmmm after reading all these mixed opinions on true duals im not sure. lol. i want a good, louder/deeper tone in all rpm ranges. idle, low rpm, and WOT etc...but doing so without touching cats because every shop charges outrageous amounts for that work. haha i know thats asking for alot

 

The main thing with true duals is it will have its own tone and sound level from each engine revolution, which will make it rasp under WOT, sound like the same level at the other rpms. I wouldn't do a true dual unless you plan future performance modification.

 

ergh. guess ill scratch this off the list. haha what about replacing the y pipe that goes to the muffler with a 3" one? will that flow better/sound any different?

 

Oh ofcoarse. I thought you already had that setup. Chop the original Y and have one with 2.5" inlets to a 3" outlet and a direct straight intermediate pipe you will free up restriction. Sound sound near the same.

 

yeah, because i have the factory 2.5" y pipe then the place i had my muffler done at put a 3" pipe to go into muffler and welded it to the 2.5" y. is it worth the change? will i notice anything?

 

sound-wise not really, but performance wise you actually should notice better low end and better towing experience.

 

hmm wonder if its worth doing

 

If you want a better flowing exhaust to enchance low end rpm, and a little economy increase ( probably 0.5mpg or so ) I would.

 

yeah maybe ill do that little upgrade. damn i was hopin to do true dual super44s but from what i hear its not really worth it

 

Well you can if you want the dual rumble sound, other than that your current set up is much healthier to run and just as loud.

 

yeah. thanks for all the replies and advice darren! haha all the kids in my school think true dual or straight pipe is the best. lol

 

Well think is a totally different being than what is best. Tell them it is true dualed, and if they dont believe you tell them to look under and see, and if they do, then tell them they must have plenty of time on their hands if they took the time to verify it

 

haha first time this one kid heard my truck he asked me if it was true duals.....lol

 

haha stupid question, but could somebody explain why a si/do muffler will out perform a true dual setup?

 

i'm looking forward to the responses on this from the guys who never ran a properly sized and laid out dual exhaust
