hey guys, i'm getting ready to buy a set of kooks long tube headers and a x pipe with an exhaust. My question is what is the loudest exhaust for the lightning ? I'm looking at a bassani exhaust or a jdm are these good ? bascicly i want the loudest best sounding exhaust, thanks in advance.

 

If you want loud just run straight pipes.

 

I had my muffler removed for like $50 and it idles almost the same a stock, but at WOT it is loud as all he11!

 

Id say go with the Siverbullet it will work great with the kooks, not to mention sound the best too. We took off a bassani catback on a customers 600+ HP truck. It was loud to begin with but when we put on the Silver bullet the truck really came alive, sound was not only louder but 10 times cleaner too. Im not to kean on the bassani. SB is cheaper too! Also looks better from underneath the truck.

^^ I love mine... it's almost orgasmic.
My neighbors don't like it though.

 

What sounds "best" is a matter of opinion. There is no "best" sounding exhaust because everyone has different tastes.

I have a Bassani BX catback and mid pipes and it sounds great to me and it's loud. If you want the loudest, Kooks and a Silverbullet would be hard to beat.

 

A pair of glasspacks or cherrybombs work great and sound killer!!!!!

 

If you want it loud (too loud in my opinion), hang a set of Dynomax 14" Bullet race mufflers off that x-pipe. If that aint loud enough, you done gone deaf.

 

I had the Bassani with my Dynatechs and high flow cats and it was pretty damn loud, but I just didn't like the overall sound. I ended up with a single Magnaflow (also comes in dual cat back mufflers) and that added a more base type sound.

WOT was insane, but then again I am getting old(er).

Couldn't imagine straight pipes................

I have the Bassani High Flow Cats and Cat Back and they sound great:-). Purchased them from LFP and received great service.

 

since i look at the undercarriage of my truck all the time...

 

Removing the cats makes it really really really loud

 

Bro, im running the Dynatech headers with cats.. i had a magnaflow single muffler and was very loud and very nice looking, i switched to the JDM silver bullet and it sounds sick!! its cleaner and alot louder its a straight through exhaust.. i even picked up power on the top end dyno proven.. i have a 500hp stock block and that baby needs to breath when you get into those high HP ranges.. goodluck with your decision..

 

I got the Kooks headers and Bassani catback and I have no problem with it. But I have never heard it with the SB though.

 

Remove the cats...I did..YEEEEESH!!
