It gets a little louder, but stays deep like that. It cackles and pops a little bit when your downshifting.

I'll post mine driving, 2.5" Cherrybomb. Nothing special, but enough to get the point across.

hey rols, could you snap a pic of the underside of your exhaust? I want to do an exit before the rear wheel very similar to yours and the F-150 Lightning exhaust. What tip are you running and what diameter pipe?

How many of you guys have deleted the cat 'verter?

Here is my Gibson. The video is a little over a minute. You can hear the exhaust in the beginning and at the end it sounds really nice almost like a motorcycle but obviously not. This is my truck warming up and getting ready to head out for another day of ice fishing and snow romping! I love this exhaust!
