SS36 Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 I just put my new Texas-Speed longtubes on had an exhaust shop put a custom dual 3" to magnaflow hi-flow cats and mufflers then 3" tailpipes. I'm kind of regretting going with the 3" now. It sounds a little ratty when you get on it. Any solutions? I thought about putting in an X-pipe or using different mufflers. and maybe the dumping the tailpipes behind the axel. Let me know what you guys think, thanks.

JC03SS Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 Maybe put an x in it. I always say unless your making some pretty big power I wouldn't go 3". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muggs Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 Which Magnaflow muffler did you go with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have kept the exhaust pipes their good stuff and just do the custom fabs to the muffler from LT's/Hi-flows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS36 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Which Magnaflow muffler did you go with? I went with the 3" I/O that's offset on one side and centered on the other. It's basically just straight through with no chambers or anything just perforated tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I told the muffler shop I wanted to keep most the stock exhaust and they ended up getting rid of all of it and running 3" all the way. Maybe this is a sign I need to add more power lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldofashow Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 I changed to all 3" from the stock connection at the 2 bolt and banjo clamp back dumping before the passenger rear tire using 3" magna pack mufflers and they took 3 weeks to break in and sound different but now everything from the connection forward is getting swapped out for 3" arh y pipe with LT 17/8 ill let ya know how it sounds matched up. I think the stock manifolds struggle to flow through the 3" causing the sound. I'm getting the y pipe without cats if I don't like it ill be ordering the y pipe with cats and swapping out can't wait arh are made as ordered so I've ordered Friday so 10 days until there shipped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
