i saw these videos of this guys cherry bomb muffler on his 3.0l, so i bought one, a 30 inch long one, just havent put it on yet. Anyone know if it will sound too ricey or something?, cuz IMO it sound fine on the vid cherry bomb vids

 

It's all about personal taste, for me, that's too ricey, but I'm a sucker for a 452 on the Flow so maybe don't listen to me

 

it does sound a lil ricey for me to, but thats also just me.

 

i speak from experience and say no i used to have a 75 ford ranchero with a 5.0 engine swap from a mustang with dual cherry bombs on it that the original owner put on, i just flat out didnt like it

 

anyone know where i can order a flowmaster 40 muffler for cheap?
i think im gonna put the cherry bomb on(considering how cheap they are), and if it sounds terrible, then ill go ahead and ordered a flowmaster

 

i just sold one that i had about a month ago, but anyways ebay is the ****, you could probably snag it on there for around 40 or less

 

and those wont sound ricey on a stock engine?

 

i couldnt tell you, someone else would have to say, but i have a super 40 on my 4 cyl lol it doesnt sound great but its alright to me i guess, all about your own preference but i know its hard when you dont know what the outcome is going to be, just take the advice of some of your fellow ranger owners

 

ya....i dunno...some people say they prefer the sound of cherrys over the flowmasters, and some say the opposite.....decisions....decisions......

 

HAHA, thats my video i made for a friend, you people need to hear it, its not ricey at all......ill try and post that **** up, im using it cause its a cheap round muffler and you can hide it behind the frame once youve lifted with a body lift and you dont want your exhaust to hang low

 

here it is, scroll down and i have 2 videos up there....https://www.ranger-forums.com/forum2...ad.php?t=31366

 

don't get a flowmaster!!!!!!! i just got a force automotive products muffler from summit and it is the exact same thing for only 32.50!!!!!! i've used flowmaster on everything up untill i found these. they are an exact copy of flowmaster 40 series. it even sounds a little deeper than my s-10 with a 4.3 and a flowmaster 40 series at idle.

 

Intresting.. Thats what was put on my truck.. SWEET!!!

 

well....i went with the cherrybomb today......it sounds awesome...im keeping it.
ill try and put a video of it tommorow

 

if it was a high hp engine then iwould
but on a ranger...........they sound like poo!!!

 

well thats your opinion, have you had one on a ranger???? people are always mistaking my exhaust for a flowmaster or someother "nicer" mufflers till they crawl under my truck and see for myself.......

 

Same here. I have a Flowtech glasspack and it sounds great. I've gotten a few compliements and they're always suprised when I say I have a glasspack.

 

well...heres the cherrybomb i put on.....whats ur opinions?

Right Herrr

 

I like it but gotta ? Is it true when the say the shorter the louder? and how would 16'' packs sound? Any one have any on there 3.0 shorter then 30 or 18? thanxz

 

yeah....the shorter the louder is true, but you lose that deep throaty noise. I didnt really want my truck loud, just better sounding. they sell cherry bombs down to like 17 inches at kraigen i think (atleast they did at my local kraigen). If you want straight up loud, having no muffler doesnt sound that bad, i was surprised how it sounded when i started my truck with no muffler.

 

ya that sounds real similar to mine, did you just dump it or how did you run your tail pipe???

 

i kept everything the same, i still have my tailpipe in the stock position, behind the tire. but i'll probally be moving the tailpipe up in front of the tire next week.

the cherry bomb i bought wasnt to much longer than the stock muffler (about 7 inches longer), so i just took a sawzall to the ends of the old muffler and clamped on the cherrybomb

 

dont waste any money on a cherry bomb. it'll be worth it to save n wait for a flow or somthin

 

what size is the exhaust pipe on a 3.0 right in front of the muffler, i am going with a cherry bomd also, and want ot get the right size.

 

someone with a plasspack can you please get me pictures on your set up.

thanks
