Exhaust Comparison. MBRP vs No Muffler

had a few people elsewhere ask me how the MBRP sounds vs no muffler. so i made this little video.

as you can hear, there isnt a major sound difference, just a touch "smoother" sounding, and a little bit quieter. i would say the correct word is "mellower"

anyways, enjoy. Im running no muffler for now. I like the added noise and rumble it has.

I'm thinking about ditching my current exhaust and running no muffler with a 3" tip out the side but Ill probably get sick of it quick which is why I haven't taken it in yet.

Btw you should get a tuner lol

I have a tuner lol.

I don't get sick of this loud. I love every second of it. Sounds really nice.

I was thinking about making mine side exit. But I'll just leave it like this so I can go back and forth with ease Haha.

Lol your truck seems slower than mine but maybe its just the video.

Mine is loud enough as is with the current set up dumped above the axle. On the highway it gets annoying. If it was a V8 I wouldn't think twice about it though. That's the only "loud" i'd tolerate.

The way yours is set up would work just because its bolt on. I have a full custom exhaust and don't want to redo it. It already gargles good when i give it gas but not as much as without the muffler in your video. Only reason i'd do it is for that

I have it tuned on economy haha. Probably why you think it seems slow. Plus all the weight of a full size spare, tools, 60" hi lift etc. Not to mention 33's and stock gears lol.


But yeah, I love then sound. Doesn't get annoying on the highway IMO. I love it. Commute 70 miles one way never get tired of it. Can't even hear it cruising since I have windows down all the time.
