i got a 4.0 v6 ranger and i used to have straight pipes. just today i bought a glasspack and put it on. I heard it would make a deeper sound but it just made it quieter. Does the sound get better with time? or should i just take it off.

Thanks, Hunter

 

Glasspacks will get louder with time.

 

ya , it will get better , glass packs are designed to take out the high notes and any tin can noise and just give u the bass

 

Alright thanks, almost thought i wasted $60 for a sec

 

ya i just took my cat back off today , it sounds awseome , but the police dont like it so much , so i may have to muffle the sound a lil

 

holly **** you payed 60 dollars for a glass pack i only paid 20 for mine at AA

 

I have a 2009 4.0l 4x4, currently with a stock exhaust can I just remove cat back for a better sound, if so do you have to cut the pipe or does it just have a clamp on it. If I have to cut it could I just re-attach it with clamps again so it will pass an e-test.

 

honestly you should just take it off and bring it back to the store or sell it. glasspacks dont last long before they blow out and become a big echoing chamber. just spend another $40-60 and buy a nice stainless magnaflow or flowmaster muffler and be done with it. they will sound a lot better and actually last

 

Jesse Thomas , on my 02 there is a flange with 2 bolts under the cab that hold the cat back on , undo those and take off the 2 rubber pieces one in the front and rear and then pull the exhaust out , u may have to drop spare tire for some extra room , and this may cause a few 4 letter words while getting it out , but yeah it sounds good and loud

 

haha yeah i live in alaska. Everything is expensive

 

i wouldnt pay 60 for a glass pack when it's gonna burn out in a year

 

The shop I got my glasspacks for my 77 F150 and dads 76 Chevy have lifetime replacements

 

yeah what brand is you r glass pack, is it an actuall cherry bomb glass pack or what, i mean why on earth would it cost 60 dollars, and it will wear out eventually and alot quicker than a metal muffler
