mine sounded much better after i took the second cat out. and i heard it sounded like crap to drop it behind the axle thats why i hesitated to do it but may once i get the new muffler put in.

 

Thanks! slowly but surely. i am so ready to get these rock sliders done and start workin on my bumpers

 

I think it sounds deeper, more throaty. I think it makes a big difference how you cut it. I cut mine, more or less, parallel to the ground. That way the space between the ground and the bed kinda make another resonance chamber. Probably would sound like crap if you didn't have a spare tire there though.

EDIT: I also have bedliner, which would dampen the effect of bouncing off the sheet metal under the truck.

 

jk, o well this one is plenty loud enough. i think its only 50 watts but i have another one in the shop to add to it just havent done it yet but ill get there sooner or later, maybe tomarrow![/QUOTE]

o sounds good i like your spot where you put it i tried to put mine there but its to wide so its mounted under the cab on top of the cross member.

 

i might have to try this before i get my muffler and see how i like it. N i got me a bedliner anda spare so that should be the same i was trying to cut it with a hacksaw so thats why i quit tryin to cut it off.

i bet it sounds a bit better there instead of under the hood. i may put the other one under the bed or somethin so when im talkin sh*t to people goin down the road they can still hear me when im flyin by

i have a wire tapped into the speaker wire that runs to a switch and the pa wire runs to the switch also and the switch acts like a bridge for either pa or speaker

haha hell yea same here when i was in school still. if we get together to de-chrome the grill ill check yours out and maybe do the same thing with my spare one for the carolina games!

 

Actually, no. I'm reasonably sure the exhaust is stock, other then a new cat. I think that's a high flow cat.

I haven't done anything other then cut the exhaust pipe off for clearance, and reseal the manifold to the down pipe. Any changes that have been made, were made by a previous owner.

 

dang dude im sorry i ment to quote that to tacomaforlife, but i gotcha, i still may try it one day your way!
