You could definitely hear when the pipes hit the bed lol. Having them exit before the tires might have been what made it resonate in the cab so much. I kind of like how the Ford Raptor exhaust looks. Maybe have the downpipes stay dual all the way back to the muffler with an internal x-pipe and then exit like this:

No cheesy clamp on tips though

This is not a NA exhaust. You don't need an xpipe, keep them separate the whokw time if you want to do duals. I change my vote to hood stacks.

I don't care if its duals or not. That's not part of my requirements, Richard! Just want a little more exhaust tone. I don't think the 4" is helping that.

I'm running a dual 3" in single 4" out magnaflow. 22" oval body. I can get a quick vid right now if you want to hear it. No turbos on my rig though

Too loud in the cab for my taste but you can hear the cam really well and sounds awesome 3000rpm+

Yeah that sounds really good. I might do the 22" magnaflow then. That's the same size as the one Joey posted.

The main thing with drone is dont dump your exhaust. Even if its in front of the back tire, running it out the side should cut the drone. Dumping under the bed/cab just makes it echo under there.

A lot has to do with the length of the tailpipe too....I added a hump to go over my axle where it points down at a 45 and its actually quieter than it was with it pointed straight back.
