Of all the exhausts I’ve had on various vehicles the best sounding one ever was my 96 Chevy truck. I had 3” tubing with 4” (maybe 5” can’t remember) tips. I had them weld in a y pipe instead of the muffler and even though it was a 4.3 Vortec V6 it sounded like a monster. Even with a muffler it was deep.
I have a feeling that the deep rumble it had was mostly due to the large piping (acoustic science says that the longer the wave the deeper the sound, the shorter the higher. A bigger pipe should equal a longer wavelength right?
But, those huge pipes on my truck absolutely killed my torque and hp it seems. I don’t want to reduce an already anemic hp number.
Every system I see seems to use 2.5” tubing with various types of turbo mufflers etc. Can someone recommend the best bolt on kit that will give me a super loud, deep rumble?
