N/A 6.2's are loud as **** with straight pipes. They sound really good with Flowmasters though.

I have 2 1/2 inch straight pipes with glass packs...its pretty loud, but I like it that way. Fun watching people jump when I roar by.

my brothers 82 1/2 ton had cherry bombs when he bought it, not too loud when driving normal, when you got on it it would bark nicely

you get really SICK of the rap of the exhaust if you have no mufflers... its WAY too Loud. Really I use yo like the loud pipes but now days I enjoy my hearing and able to talk to the person next to me. Now I do have my Monte SS with 2.5 and flow masters but that is a fun toy... not something I drive all the time.

Should fit in fine in Alabama, not so well here in NC... depends on how deaf your law enforcement people are. I did something similar to my truck when I was 16; the fun was over in 2 weeks when I got the 'fix-it' ticket from the Highway Patrol for 'improper exhaust/excessive noise'.

Try an advanced search in the cucv forum for "straight pipes". several threads on this.

I group people who run straight pipes on the street in the same catagory as the drooling imbeciles that ride around with their stereos blasting out the window.....festering boils on the butt of humanity. As a matter of fact I just had an OP ED piece published in my school newpaper reflecting that opinion.

Noise for the sake of noise is a something we don't need in the hobby.....it just gives the opposition more ammo to regulate.

It is a quality of life issue.....no one has the right to intrude on someone elses peace and quiet.

I live out in the country for peace and quiet but I still have the occasional idiot that offends me by their rudeness and stupidity.....if I am out in the yard I always render the center digit salute to let them know how much I appreciate their intrusion. None have them have been stupid enough yet to confront me about it.

When I drive my dueces I always run at the lowest RPM possible if I am near folks......there is no need to run it wide open just to attract attention. I have installed a muffler on my M275 which had a natually aspirated engine in it and came to me without one.

A good set of Flowmasters will give your V-8 diesel a nice mellow sound without annoying the general population.

To each his own, I'll continue to render center digit salutes right back
