RE: Just installed the dumps
Seriously, there is almost ZERO difference on the highway/at cruising speed. It doesn't have that "chevy truck with flowmaster turndowns" sound at all.
I think its magnaflow FTW once again.. they simply don't drone.
Its only really louder at WOT and idle, and a little louder at partial throttle accleration. On the highway though its not even noticably different.

RE: Just installed the dumps
ORIGINAL: 2000GT4.6
I stopped by a local exhaust shop today after pulling my buddies busted escourt to his house (in the truck of course) and got some turndowns.
Man is it alot louder
Before when I would tape it wouldn't be that loud in the cab and people would ask about it... that isn't gonna be a problem anymore.
Not only is it louder inside, its ALOT louder outside at WOT.
Surprisingly, with the magnaflows, at crusing speed (close to 3k RPM) its not loud at all, sounds almost exactly like it did before with the catback (so its not annoying on the highway) but open it up and wow.
The idle is alot different too. It has that deep boom boom sound now that it didnt before.
Dumps FTW! All I have to do now is figure out how to hang just the magnaflow tips without the pipes so the rearend doesn't look retarted.

RE: Just installed the dumps
Dumps are dumps, its just a short piece of tubing that points towards the ground.
If its already loud with just the mufflers blowing out back it isn't gonna change with dumps. Not sure if your saying you have just straightpipes or you have mufflers on now.
If you don't have mufflers on now. a set of mufflers and the turn downs should quiet it down a bit.
