Looking to ditch the thrush turbo (not load enough) and get duals...i dont want the drone either but i want a nice deep throaty sound so everyone knows im coming lol but tell me that you think i should run please

 

Loud, deep, throaty, and 3.0 don't really go together. That being said, flowmaster super 44 or maybe even a 10 series

 

straights like mine

 

I know but im trying to get as close as i can lol

 

ive had roughly 5 diff mufflers on my truck... its a 3.0. right now i have a thrush welded (the chambered one) 2.25 inches. it sounds exactly like the flowmaster 40 series i had. I really like the sound of the thrush welded alot! heres the order of muffler setups ive had on my truck...

stock
heartthrob dual with 3 inch by 24 inch tips ( just loud and got me a ticket...)
-all below mufflers were cat back with nascar style exit..-

thrush turbo, super quiet and robbd power 2.25"
dynomax super turbo ok sound still quiet 2.25"
flowmaster 40 deep but drone 2.25"
dynomax ultra flo welded pretty quiet actually and robbd power if you believe it 2"
thrush welded (current) tad loud at times but the idle and back pressure pops are perfect! 2.25"

these were all on over the last 7 ish years, life in wisconsin eats mufflers alive lol

Try the thrush welded man, its cheap and i think it sounds real nice. 2.25"

im gonna try a straight through fiber packed muffler when this one rots out :) center center layout

Flowmaster super 10. I have a 4.0L, so im not sure how it would sound on a 3.0

If you run duals out the back, and dump it AFTER the rear axle, it wont drone half as bad.

I had a super 44 with duals, and had it dumped after the rear axle. I then ran tips out the back, and it droned A LOT more with the tips.

I now have a Flowmaster super 10 dual out. Side exit before the rear passenger tire. Sounds GREAT, but drones like CRAZY on the highway.

 

im a big fan of cherry bomb extreme single chambered mufflers. its exactly like the flowmaster 10 series except cheaper. im getting straights with a y pipe and 4" black tips put on this week though lol

 

Get ahold of a Banks exhaust for a Jeep TJ 4.0 and try it... LIked how it sounded on my TJ so much I got one for the truck as well...
I've also run a Gibson, wasn't really loud, more of a deep tone, but you could tell it was there

 

I have magnaflow on my truck and am quite pleased.

 

neighbor runs stock manifolds, disconnected exhaust right past cat, bought an intermediate pipe that fits the stock flange, bought pipe, ran duals with two 28" cherry grenades. talk about mean and grumpy. it would sound like someone beating your chest in

 

40 series flowmasters dumped single in dual out with 2 3/4" pipe. That's what I had on my 3.0 and I loved it. Nice and deep tone sounded almost like a 4.6

i always liked running a muffler ment for a diesel farm tractor, sometimes stealthy is a good thing.

 

Disconnected exhaust after the last cat?

Is this a ranger? If so, what size engine?

 

I have a flowmaster 50 series with no cats. its perfect. way better than my old glasspack, magnaflow, or 40 series i have heard on a 3.0

the tips are gone now and the exhaust comes out right behind the hitch. It only pops when its cold right after you start it

 

like this now

 

Might try the cherry bomb turbo friday...or a flow master not sure. not wanting something loud and obnoxious.

 

I should have asserted that travis moved out last year before i got my ranger and ever cared about them BUTTTT I wanna say it was a pre 1998 step side 4.0 but do not hold me too it. (idk if they made those type of rangers back then or what) I do know..because i helped him...that he had dropped the stock cat back exhaust. bought this pipe that had the stock size exhaust flange fitting and welded plumbing pipe on it and ran it to a Y and put two long long cherry bombs. like over 28" at least and than maybe a foot of chrome pipe after each bomb. it sounded better than sex. it never really had the back pressure pop or burn down and he even held a solid low end torque which is surprising considering he just dumped the exhaust. i wanna do it so bad but i dont have the cash

 

ive got a 2.3 with a cherry bomb turbo. picked it up from pep boys where im employed for about 25 bucks. its got a deep but in no way overpowering or loud sound. i just replaced my muffler with it though so still have pipe ran back to the rear.

 

I have an Aero Turbine and it sounds way better than I could have imagined. Way deeper than any other six cylinder I've heard.

 

Sorry it took so long to post guys...im thinking about getting true duals with the thrush welded or flowmaster 40s with the 2.25" pipes coming out behind the tires at a 45 with some nice chrome tips haha. maybe ill get better mpg with the true duals anyway lol

 

yea you might....like a 1/3 of a mile haha or less than that

 

If you want it loud all the time idle, start-up, crusing, wot and everything in between go straight pipe. There's hardly no drone cruising the only drone is on hill when your in it and its very very obnoxious. O posted a video in another thread. Go straights or go home

 

^ like except straight remove (or feels like they do) half what little torque you have so.....idk....its a decision

 

Do not run TRUE duals. Your truck will be gutless from a standstill.

You can run the pipe setup, but run it off of 1 muffler.

 

Stock Rules!
