That's how my exhaust is right now on my anemic V6. I set off car alarms
quite often now. I took off my Gibson Dual Rear to see if it would sound
better without running the dual pipes to the back, just exiting underneath
the bed. Unfortunately I could not get one of the exit pipes off of the
exhaust can so I am now running without a muffler. It sounds pretty cool
although very buzzy in the cab. I plan to put on a Flowmaster 50 series
dual out.
