Hmmm interesting... Well the truck already had 2.5" plumbing, I didn't like
the exhaust end because it had a fake side dual out so I replaced it with a
Dynomax catback. Doesn't feel like I lose any bottom end but definitely
gained more top. Sound?? Good question.. At idle it has a nice rumble, at 2k
you get a loud rumble (nothing like a v8 but the grumble of a HiPo Euro car
(was told by a couple of people that is sounds like a Porsche). My dream car
is a Porsche 911 Turbo so it works for me...
