Coda Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 either get high flowing cats or just run a pipe through em and get an 02 sensor.. shoulda got super 40s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtodd82 Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 well everything that i have read about x pipes, is that they can tone down your exhaust a pretty good amount. i had a 50 on my truck, and wasnt nearly as loud as i thought it would be. i now have gutted cats and no mufflers with an x pipe and it sounds perfect. that x pipe must tone it down considerably, because its loud, but not as obnoxisoully loud as i thought it would be. its perfect sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbart Posted January 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 either get high flowing cats or just run a pipe through em and get an 02 sensor.. shoulda got super 40s <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i thought that the regular 40's were louder do the high flow cats make it any louder or just more power both are nice just wondering which or both??

gbart Posted January 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 get rid of the x-pipe and go w/ a high flow cat.... if thats not loud enough then invest in a VERY loud audio system <{POST_SNAPBACK}> already got the audio covered lol just 400 bucks for exhaust didnt really impress me much trust me the audio is there so would it be louder without the x and high flow cats just staight through the mufflers????

fox_forma Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 Sometimes you have to run it semi hard to get it to break in properly, I know I had to do this with my stang but i'm not possitive about other vehicles. Just my .02 cents good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstchevy Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 pull those 40's off and run (2) 1 chambers or flowmasters race series mufflers. this won be to loud or anything uless yu take the cats off. run your x pipe withthem and it will sound good. I am about to convert the wifes 5.3 since she has no cats an x pipe and 2 1 chambers dumped. I am going to put my cats on the vho on her truck and by two tips and weld them directly to the muffler point it down. the cats wqill take away all the rasp and I am hoping for a nice rumble but still be loud enough to scare imports away.

CoolBlueSS Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 As the mufflers get more miles on then they will get louder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d_a_n_payne Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 Im with you gbart, I have two 40s and I dont think they are loud enough but everybody that rides with me tells me not to touch my exhaust because my luck it would get louder but at the same time, loose its deepness.
