Exhaust TOO LOUD
:'( I have a straight pipe spit into duals. I pull a gooseneck horse trailer and the sound is deafening. (I love it but its too loud you cant hardly carry on a conversation in the cab.) I have stock pipes what is a good free flow muffler that will fit the pipes and not empty my wallet. Thanks

Dynomax makes a good kit for a reasonable price. It includes a muffler and 4" tailpipe and chrome tip. It hooks up just after the resonantor. The muffler is supposed to be a good fit for flow and noise reduction and the 4" tailpipe is more than adequate.<br><br>Good luck.<br><br>J-eh

Slightly off topic, but here is one good reason to have a loud exhaust:<br><br>https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...;threadid=8467<br><br>Rich

I have my stock convertor, with dual 3.5" into 6" long mufflers that are inside the 6.5" tips. I get a cool tone around 2000 rpm.<br><br>jt

Re:Exhaust TOO LOUD
I got one of these on my truck now, almost as quiet as stock but free flowing<br>http://www.dynomax.com/ultrafloweld.stm<br><br>
<br><br>I was disapointed, I should have tried one of these <br><br>

Re:Exhaust TOO LOUD
If you run the flow master long enough it will be a straight pipe..LOL<br><br>Notice all the fiberglass in there??? Well thats a great diesel particulate filter isn't it... After some good smoke shows and heavy loades that muffler should weight about 100Lbs and be full of soot. <br><br>The diesel application mufflers are only filled with steel baffles and not fiberglass for this reason. The Dynomax stuff is supposed to be pretty good.<br><br>J-eh

Re:Exhaust TOO LOUD
Lil dog, I may have misread your post but Flowmasters have no packing they are chambered. So I would think that they would be an ideal muffler for a diesel set up.<br><br>John<br><br>
