mendolov i meant no sarcasm in any way whatsoever i was giving my .02 I would simply not put dumps on--i like tips


also--if i cut the 2 back cats off, would any o2 sensors be hurt?? WOuld it affect anyhitng other then more sound?

 

cut the stock cats off and place some High Flow cats. Not shure on what to do with the spare 2 O2 sensors.


I agree with JL,go out the side. The look is awesome, and when you pass people, all the sound is generated right into the cars direction. Dumps are nice on low trucks or off road. Saw a 454 SS chevy yeasterday with a 4/6 lowering, and dumps and it was nice and loud when he took off. Do not get the loud poping red neck sounding exhausts. Just a nice powerfull sound is all that it needs.

SVTErick: Go with the Flowmaster 40 series, 2-1/2", or check out their race series mufflers. Rule of thumb: The smaller your muffler, the louder your exhaust will be. Good luck!

 

Alright... peace man!!

I know that the cats on the 97-up are restrictive and take away a lot of sound but I would recommend NOT removing any of the cats on your truck. There are sensors before and after your cats that will detect whether or not they are working. You can take off all 4 of your cats and replace them with 2 highflows and replace all your sensors and be just fine. OR another alternative would be to ditch all your cats and get MIL eliminators I think they're called. They are O2 sensor simulators that you install to trick your computer into thinking you have working cats. Jegs and Summit Racing carry them.

I agree... Get the Flowmaster 40 series ORIGINAL!! Very good sounding muffler!

HEY PHIL--whats wrong with the redneck popping bro?

 

im looking for a Lightning style exit though and the 40 series doesnt give me that.

 

You can route your tailpipe just like the Lightnings do using a Flowmaster... just ask the muffler shop you are taking your truck to, to do so.

 

I agree, a good muffler shop guy should be able to fabricate the bends for a dual-outlet side exhaust. I believe Flowmaster does have a single-in/dual-out 40 Series. This should make it sound deep!

 

Flowmaster does have several single-in/dual out mufflers in their 40 Series. Check out their products, 40-Series. Here's a link...

sweet thanks guys!

 

This what you want 3" in dual 21/2" out 40 series #430402...I have it...ssswwweeeettt

 

you got it on your 4.2?

 

Leagally a muffler shop (or any other shop) can not take an emisions control device off you vehicle. But if you know someone with some knoledge or a buddy in the business, you cant get it taken care of.
