"Straight Pipe" - A.K.A Muffler Delete

Who here runs a straight pipe on their 4.0 V6? I'm curious to see who has removed their muffler.

It's a feeler. I know many hate the way the V6 sounds, but I wanted to see if anyone has had any experience with it.

 

I ran straight pipe and headers on my 3.4l. Loud as shit and raspy. I wouldn't recommend it. I had to almost shout at any passengers.

 

I have urd headers, ypipe, and no muffler out the side...

 

Classic chambered power stick in place of the muffler sounds amazing. I haven't found anyone else other than myself that have done this yet, I didn't really tell anyone about it when I had it installed.

It's similar to a glass pack, but designed to reduce sharp exhaust sounds. I think I have a photo somewhere here on my build page or a separate post.

If you want it deeper run a larger diameter pipe.

 

Sounds like a tractor
