Chopping Exhaust Tomorrow... Have You?

already have a super 44 instaled right now, and then stock piping coming out the stock location. gonna chop it probably shortly after the muffler tomorrow, would like a little more grunt at idle, anybody have a chopped exhaust behind an aftermarket muffler?

 

Yup, Chopped after the axle with a Thrush Welded muffler.

It'll be louder than how it is now, since the exhaust willl pointing towards the ground (so the sound will resonate off that) instead of into the open air

 

Not only that it will resonate under the truck itself like a tunnel, had that done to my 87 Toyota

 

tons of ppl have done it. Im sure you wont mind it, especially if you have a 44 flowmaster already lol

 

pretty much what alreayd expected in term of what u guys were gonna say, im just not sure if im gonna chop it so that it aims at the ground or just so that i dont see it hanging out the back anymore. anybody seen at before/after vid of one WITH a muffler, idont care about some gay ass chopped exhaust w/o a muffler

 

oh damn i just saw a pic of a truck with it pointed down right off the muffler!..let me find it.. but thats what id do.

 

HA! i found it!

 

thanks dude awesome! thats basically what i wanna do. is that last hangar stock?

 

Tons of people run it that way.

I run it that way on my 89'
My buddy runs it that way on his 91' 4Runner
My other buddy runs it that way on his 90' Ranger
My other other buddy runs it that way on his 84' 4runner

We all run single chambers.

 

I have an LCE header, cat co high flow cat, and a flowmaster 40, and cutting the last 3 bends off (tail pipe was in stock position) and dumping it over the axle made a HUGE difference, much throatier during accel...but still quieter than I wanted at idle.

Wuttttt.

 

aight i did it. it isnt persay LOUDER around normal speeds, but between 2 and 5mph it has a very throaty sound. my buddy says it sounds ike a lion haha. anyways, im pretty happy with it. thanks for all input and help guys

 

You guys didnt lose any toruqe? When i put on my muffler and chopped after axle facing down slightly i felt i lost some torque

 

to be honest i think if anything i lost a little restriction. seems like it "breathes" better now. either way if it did lose any which i doubt, i cant feel it. though i do have the deck plate mod, maybe that has something to do with it....

 

Looks good, but it looks like his shocks are on upside down.
