    LOL I could've told you the exhaust is loud without you needing to find out the hardway.



    Throw a resonator and a magnaflow muffler on your truck, I know you'll like it.

    I already have a Magnaflow 40 Muffler on it, still not quite loud enough. But the Straight Pipe is TOO loud.

    I was thinking of going to a 2" Stainless with no cat. Then just a hi flow muffler towards the back. I have the silencer inside the muffler that I could always take out. Just waiting to the Stainless to get here

    LOL!! I have the stock radio in mine so that's why I want something to make the truck sound nice. Actually thinking about a glasspack.
