    header,short rack and pinion, heavy duty shocks, grill guard, flowmaster exhaust,pacesetter header without catalytic converter, one 10 inch xant sub with a mtx amp, off road lights,diamondplate tool box,rhinolined inside cab,ngk plugwires.
    it sounds terrible i have a 96 2.7 just installed the header and it sounds like a rice burned pacesetter must suck can anyone offer any suggestions on how i can make it sound deeper

    keep the header for now, and see if you like it with the muffler first. it should cancel some of the ricey sound, and you will have a growl/rumble that will sound way better than anything ricey!!!

    More cubes, and more cyclinders is what's required to not sound like a ricer.
