Dumping my duals????
 

Ok I have a set of flowmaster duals on my truck. Got it done about 2 years ago. I was wondering if i just cut em shorter underneathe and just heat the pipe up and 90 it down or buy a set of 90 tips and weld em on? Would that work? Make it sound better? Any of you done this? Just looking for ideas? :crazy:

I did it to a completely worked chevy 383 stroker...it sounded aweseom ;)

4.0 tho lol atleast i know it can be done.

It will be hella loud in the cab and outside...I get sick of the resonating humm of my exhaust at 2500 rpms now and cant imagine it with it dumped right after the muff....but to each his own!

do it.

yea it sound badass as long as you don't mind the drone inside the cab. If you wanted the same sound but not as much drone inside the cab, just run the pipes out before the rear tire like the F150 Lightning exhausts are. -Mike-

will it be super loud or have a nice little rumble. i do have a 4.0

i doubt it will be super loud

lol thanks buddy

It will be louder and deeper. Since you have the 4.0L OHV it will have a deeper sound than the SOHC..

damn nice. I'll look into it.

do it do it. ill even help ya.

I did the same to my 2.5, only without the turn-downs. It made it much, much deeper (inside and out), and it really resonates a nice tone in the cab and within 20 feet of the truck now. My wife hears me when I pull into the neighborhood, and we live 100 yards or so from the entrance. I pull in at idle or just bare above it.

I'd recommend it, but be prepared to turn up the radio a few more notches!

prepare to lose all your bass if you dont have a subwoofer :P

um i do have a system in it tho! will that do anything to it. Its reaching about 142-44 db's inside the cab. Will my music still be heard!?

i had my 2.5 dumped for awhile with my magnaflow. Sounded great outside but very annoying inside the cab going down the highway. -Mike-

Isnt 160 bd's ear definging

i think you heart stops at that point. I dont listen to the music that loud. that i was standing outside the truck with my remote

i have one dumped under my truck and its not to loud it sounds good actually. Is it a tru dual setup?

single in dual out

thats the set up i got now..

it sounds good..crankin it up in the morning is loud..

its loud and annoying goin 70+ down the interstate just turn the radio up

i say go for it

ok well as soon as i get my truck back i'll hack away. if i dont like it ill just weld er' back up

now you are planning on keepin ghte flow master mufflers right? and just dumping the piping right before the rear axle?, well it will be a little bit louder but it shouldnt make that much of a differenace, i wnet from dual out the back to basically the same thing with Two Dynomax mufflers and it really didnt chance the sound of the vehicale much at all... its basically piping you are taking away just try not to dump it under the cab or else you will get that droning effect and it just gets anoying after a min or two....

Is there any difference between the 3.0 and 4.0 loudness wise of a flowmaster 40 (original) ??

i think the 4.0 has a louder, deeper, raspier sound. dont quote me on it though.
