i got a 91 f-250 at home with a 351 and dual 2 inch straight pipes on it(dont ask what i was thinking, i wanted loud, and got it) that thing is fricken loud and everyone would give me a dirty look as i went by, no one ever seems to be "offended" by a loud cummins

 

Haha, beautiful.

 

because they just sound "right" when they're straight piped

while your smallblock probably sounds like it's angry that it was ever put in a pickup

it's probably also a lot louder than your Cummins... turbos are good mufflers

 

personally i think my 4" exhaust is actually "louder" then 5" but the 5" does have a deeper sound. I dunno about anyone else, but right around 2250 rpm 4" staight sounds like a freight train coming through, anyone else get this with there exhaust (louder at certain rpm)?

 

yeah, mine's got a pretty sick resonance at about 2300

 

You guys are giving me wood. I have to get a 5". My stock 3" straight-piped exhaust with 5" tip just isn't getting the job done.

 

I know people are secretly begging for this...

That made my night.

 

My fav, and what will be on mine within a couple weeks is a 4" with dual outlets. I just love the look of mass amounts of black smoke pouring out from both sides of the truck. Kinda balances it out so people on both sides of you can enjoy

 

That sounds great. Me like's

 

Anywhere between 2100 and 2300 its NUTS!!! But, I LOVE IT.. I have stock size with a stright pipe on it now, but this winter im putting on the 5in with 6in tip that i have in the garage!!!!

 

Why are so many people going with 5" because it "gets attention?" Who the flop cares what joe blow thinks.

I went with 5" because I like the way it sounds, and all you guys talking make me want to take out my muffler.

 

imo, i like the sound and looks of 5", my dad has 5" turbo back on his 6.0 liter, but as he taught me, bigger is better. that being said, i am running 5" from the turbo back about 4 feet, then after that it split to dual 6" exhaust with 6" angle cut tips, no muffler. me and only 1 other guy that i know in my COUNTY have that. it sounds UNBELIEVABLE . Turns many heads, sets off tons of car alarms, cant talk on the cell phone, but i wouldnt trade it for anything (except mabye 8" stacks ).
