Has anyone actually heard various exhausts back to back on their trucks? I have a SISO flomaster 40 series delta on stock pipes and i want a throatier sound because mine jsut buzzes. Or is there anyhing i can do to my current set up to make it more throty and less buzzy?

I have heard 4 different types in a row: stock, open, Gibson Super Truck, and Cherry Bomb glass pack. I posted about the cherry bomb a few days ago. It had a very throaty/mellow/race car sound. Not like those guys that sound like pure flatulant grossness. It wasn't ricey at all and it's growing on me-bad for gibson.....I'll let you know if it gives me any power over the gibson tomorrow.

 

What is the sound like at highway speeds for the cherry bomb or the gibson?

 

On the V6 I have also herd four diffrent setups. first was a single in dual out 12" glasspack, it sounded like pure rice. Second is a single in dual out flowmaster 40 it sounds pretty nice. Third is a true dual with magnaflows(mine) it is very loud with a deep tone, but when you romp it it keeps the deepnes but it also gets an underlieing high pitch. The fourth(and best) I have herd was a true dual with 2 flowmaster 50s I could not hear any underlieing high pitch, it had a very nice deep tone and it was the closest I have herd to a V8 sound.

glasspack - awesome deep rumble at cruising speed, a little too high pitched on fast acceleration, lots of interior noise at all speeds. sometimes i liked it, sometimes i didn't.
dynomax superturbo - very little interior noise, sounds just like a stock gt mustang when asked to voice its opinion, nice low volume rumble when standing behind it. (what i have now)

i'm considering cutting off the dual tips, sick of the uneven look and everybody doing a crappy welding job to make them stop wobbling. I don't know if I just want to cut them back so they won't be visible or returning them to stock position in front of rear tire (still having dual pipe outlet, but will be hidden by full length running boards).
what do you guys think?

 

i have had three different exhausts on my truck, stock, a 30" glasspack which sounded very nice, had a deep tone to it and was moderately loud, now i have true duals with two chamber flowmasters on it with dumps right out of the muffler, it sounds like it growls at the low end but picks up the higher pitches at higher revs. waiting for my paycheck to go put the rest on with echo pipes, it should sound deeper then i have also heard my friends 98 with a single in dual out flowmaster, it sounded pretty good, thats why i went with the true duals, trying to get that gurgling sound out of it, it does it when i take off but loses it after 2000 rpms

Had stock wich sounded weak at best and got a gibson 1 in 2 out, sounds mellow but great, but I have a friend who has cherry bombs with the 4.2 and it sounds a lot meaner than mine. Thinking of switching anyone got any advice?
