Just ordered a muffler delete pipe for the '05 Dodge Cummins. After 225,000 miles, I needed to get it a father's day present. If it has a drone at 70 MPH I'll go 80.![]()
Neighbors should be "Thrilled"
Check for a potato being stuffed up it if there are any irate ones close by.
I'm sure all the 12 year old boys will be impressed.
1.25 acres is fully fenced and the German Shepard is always patrolling, sometimes he's a PITA. Exhaust should remain open. Nearest neighbor is a bit down the road and he's a gearhead.
I've never done that potato thing to a school bus or bumper shagged from the same.
EDIT: Happy Birthday BTW!
I have it too and its not bad in the cab at all, much quieter then my 7.3 PSD with 5" exhaust, takes a little getting used to but as long as the turbo doesn't spool up its not bad at all, my neighbors don't mind, the key is not spooling the turbo, once that happens its freaking LOUD.
Loud pipes save lives!![]()
No they don't. They cause hearing damage.
They cause damage at the distance he will be sitting from it. Same with motorcycles. And you better believe I don't have a choice when an obnoxious biker/pickup drive stops next to me in traffic. Local noise ordinances are in place for a reason.

We'd make good neighbors.
Bought an Audi TT a few years ago. Its turbocharged. My thinking is that a turbo is a series of high speed baffles in the exhaust, and that makes it a muffler, so I chopped the muffler off and ran a straight pipe after the cat.
This year I bought a Kawasaki Vulcan 800. It sounded like a moped with the stock pipes, but aftermarket pipes start around $500, so I cut the rear baffles out and gutted the pipes. Its louder now, but not Harley loud.
Also upsized the muffler and went the performance route on my '94 Chevy.
Also cut the second muffler off my old Audi 4000 and just left the resonator muffler.
Havent' figured out how to mod the exhaust on the houseboat yet....![]()
I can't imagine trying not to spool the turbo up.
Takes discipline my friend years and years of discipline......
I can't do it all the time either....
