Default How About This Setup Guys??

Well Since I Gotta Take My Tranny Out Yet Again, This Time To Replace My Pump. I Have To Take My Exhaust Off Again, I Have A Bassani , 2 1/2 In/out Now With No Cats, But Im Thinkin About Puttin Either A 3inch In/out Single Super 40series Flowmaster Or A Dynomax Bullet, With A 4inch In/out Or A 3inch In/out? With That Ran Behind The Axel ?? Any Suggestionshow Loud Are The Bullets With No Cats?is It A Deep Sound Or Just Raspy?or Would 3inch In/out And Then A 4inch Turn Down ? Would The 4inch Be Too Much? Just Want A Real Deep Rumble.

First....PLEASE QUIT WITH ALL THE CAPITALIZED WORDS !!!

A single 3" bullet with no cat will be pretty loud, it's about as close to a 3" straight pipe as you can get and still have a muffler. A 4" exhaust is serious overkill for almost anything you can do to a 5.3 liter motor....it'll be loud but pointless.

The "deep" sound you are looking for is a function of muffler case size and pipe length....a short bullet muffler will be pretty raspy but REALLY loud while a 22" Magnaflow that you can still see straight through will have that deep rattle-your-windows rumble but won't be nearly as loud...I'm not sure you can get super loud and "deep" together very well

I had a 3" bullet with no cats and it ONLY sounded good at WOT other than that it had a ear piercing cackle. It sucked everybody told me it sounded like ****. I think you would be alright if you went with the 3"in/out 6" round ultraflow, its got more packing and would tame it down a bit.

Cut out I got the longest 3" bullet I could find going into the smallest 3" Magnaflow. I think it sounds good.

White 1 Do You Have Lt's? I Might Just Go Ahead And Get A Chokemaster Single 3in/out Super 40 Series, Cause Ive Had One Before On My Old Truck And I Liked It, Plus I Dont Have My Cats So, Itll Be Louder. Prolly Go Into A 3 1/2 Inch Turndown Behind The Rear Axel, Or Put It Exiting The Stock Location. I Like The Clean Look, No Big Flashy Tips Or Nuthin.

No, I had some ordered, but was having problems with a difference in addresses, then I went drifting in the rain across the median on coursey, so I spent the $$$ for LT's on new tires.

Hold off on the Flowmaster till you hear mine. I have a friend from Pierre Part that just put a Magnaflow on his, and it sounds similar. I think you will like it, and its a mutch better muffler than that crap youre used to
