Default setting off alarms

[8D]




a friend of mine has a 1976 chevelle but he has a really weak engine it only puts out like 130 hp but he's got a flowmaster exhaust on it i know its duals i think its a true dual setup and i know it has turndowns when we were driving around today he could rev up the engine and set off car alarms 100 feet away. i want to have this ability also has anyone here ever set off car alarms with their exhaust setup?if so what setup are you running with?

My dad probably could with his setup on his 69 chevelle, pypes 3" all the way back with violator mufflers, he has street pros on em now and it's real loud so the violators will be FREAKIN LOUD, which is awesome... What kind of motor does he have where he's only pumpin 130hp???

A single MAC muffler will do what you speak of. A dual MAC set-up will do it more.

It will also drone like a mother..

Here is a video with my old exhaust.. a single MAC. It did sound better in person.. very deep.. hard to pic that up with a camera speaker.

idk i've run open headers, side exit, straight-piped rear exit, and now 4-into-1 side exit pipes on my 440 mopar and about the only thing loud enough to do that is open headers....it's still loud no matter what, though...built 440 mildly better than stock appx 400 HP/475 TQ....maybe if you straight-piped your brand new mustang, which i wouldn't advise, but hey i've thought about it...problem with a lot of muffs i've heard online, mind you, is that they're poppy and chinky the louder they are...frpp duals sounds good and so does gt takeoff - dunno if they're actually LOUD though

pry only makin 130 cuz it's old, and after 70 the compression ratios dropped way down, along with all the emisions crap they started putting on them, making themhalf themotors they were a couple years before
