Exclamation Cherry Bombs

Would Cherry Bombs hurt the performance of the L? Will i lose too much backpressure? Or even horsepower and Torque. I Can't aford the Silver Bullet right now.

To add to my response... as SLVRLTNG stated, the MAC cat-back kit sounds great! I heard it and loved it...

Thumbs up

Yeah but nothing beats the sound of my Bassani cat back to JDM SS Long Tube Headers and high flow cats. Man and i thought that the Bassnai alone was loud. Man i love the sound now sounds like a wild animal .

Well if you light one of in the take it might mess things up, if set one of in the muffler you may loose to much back pressure then ...


oh wait, you mean mufflers

IMO I'd save up for the Silver Bullet, especially if thats what you want. Don't settle for second best.

I will be getting the Silver bullet but it will be in the future. I just wanted to make some noise that sounds good and not sound like a ricer.

Don't get the cherrybombs! The decreased backpressure will kill your torque, plus it will be loud enough to wake the dead!

Then why waste money now on something you want only to do you over til you can afford what you want? Suck it up with the stock exhaust and replace it right the first time. You'll be more happy and whatever the price of cherry bombs richer when it's all over.

You think the Stock L sounds like Rice!

Be gone with you. Never show your face on this board again! Sell your L, or tell me where you live so I can beat your face in and take it from you!

Calling an L rice is punishable by banishment for sure.

Doug, I can only assume you'll remove Fordsrus...


This is all said in jest of course... (though I am pissed you think the L could ever sound rice-like...)

Cool

I don't dare think the L sounds like a ricer I just don't want the cherry bombs to sound like a ricer. Stock sound is great but want somthing louder.

Well, right now im running straight pipes(saving up to get bassani ). it will literally rattle your head. but as far as torque goes, i can still light the tires up at a 20mph kick at ease.
