I've tried quite a few setups and straight pipe out the back is AWESOME!! I've had resonated tips, dumped flowmaster 40, custom flowmaster 40, ravin muffler with stock piping, and dumped straight pipe.
When you guys are saying no muffler, did you unbolt the exhaust under the cab. If so, dumped straight pipe sounds a lot different then if you run the pipes out the back of the truck. I have straight pipes that run out the back with 2 foot long 3" diameter tips. I wouldn't change this setup EVER. It's got a low rumble at idle and has a mellow tone under constant throttle. Yes it can get raspy at redline, but I rarely hit redline.

well, I appreciate the responces guys. I am gonna try straight pips with 18"x3" tips, and if I dont like it, a buddy of mine has a flowmaster 40 delta that he is gonna give me, so here is hoping it is what I am wanting!! by the way, lord of war, your truck is almost identical to the way I want mne sounding, myabe with a nice lower tone, but other than that, its perfect

ive done both straight and the delta 40, straight loses power and just sounds like yer going faster, and the delta is semi quiet and gave me slight torque change, but sounded perty good.
the regular 40 series is louder..or somthn like that cause Andrew (kanoeking) has a 40 series and his is really loud and my truck is fairly quiet

well, I cut the exhaust off right after the cats, was WAYYY to loud, so I put the glasspack on it, and now it sounds like a rice rocket from H-E-L-L!!!! lol So now I am back to square one.....I am saving my money and buying a 40 series flowmaster, and gonna go from there. But money is gonna be tight with gas at $2.75 a gallon!!!! Thanks for all the input guys, I apprecite it, and I am sure my truck thanks you too lol

People who have said they dont like it in most cases have just unbolted/cut the muffler off and then tried it. It sounds WAY different with a complete system and nice big tips. Mine sounds close to this one in the link below. Tail pipes make all the difference in the world, espically with big tips. Anything cut off sounds like crap.
