I can't even figure out how they still MAKE CherryBombs.. they sound like crap on EVERYTHING.

Who wants to pay $20 to make their car sound WORSE?

And a Flowmaster is another 25. Personally I would pay the extra.

yea, save up for the real deal. im sure she runs a little better now though.

my friend drives a 4 banger yota tacoma with a si/do flow 40 with crimp bent piping. i think it sounds like crap. like its trying to be a mean sounding rice burner.

Wow. I kinda liked how my Ranger sounded when I had the cherry bomb on there. And I paid $15 for mine. Now I have a cherry bomb turbo II ($18 version of a flowmaster).

Don't kill me on this, but while I was in KC, I found a guy that had an edge with an SOHC and he put an import muffler on it and it actually had a nice tone to it. Didn't sound like a long fart when they put them on the 4 bangers lol

daniel, first, that price is too high, second i doubt if youre getting true duals, and if you do keep in mind thats pretty illegal. with a muffler and tips i wouldnt pay more than 200-250 for the swept side. i paid 220 with a flowmaster and stainless tips on my F150

the basic design of the flowmaster makes it hard to get a quiet muffler. and even if you find one, youll find its the same price as a magnaflow. may as well just get the magnaflow

Why is it Illegal? Not to current on auto laws in NC or anywhere else for that matter.

in order to run "true" duals youd have to alter the catalytic converters, which is illegal in pretty much all the states. you cant modify the exhaust except AFTER the LAST cat in the system. and since rangers have a factory y pipe, you cant touch it. so it goes from dual to single, and you could go to dual again but it would not be "true" duals

yeah he showed me that when i was getting my exhaust done...there are 5 cats on our trucks!! 4 in the Y part itself and one right when it comes into a single pipe...he told me that if one went it would be very expensive to replace them...
