I'm thinking about going to a 4" system to keep EGT'S down. I'm hoping there is a system out there that will do the job without increasing in cab noise. I don't much care about how it sounds outside. My wife already hates the extra noise from the Stage 1 AFE I installed. Any ideas?

 

I have 4" Magnaflow exhaust system, it has one big flow-trough type muffler and I dont hear it in the cab at all...

 

Probably same as mine - long muffler and it sounds very humble until you goose it

It's an easy install with hand tools and removal of the stock one is best done with a Sawzall. An electric impact helps spin tight the clamps while you hold the pipe where you want it. About a 3-4 beer job or if you don't partake - a few hours +/-

 

I run straight pipe 4" all the way out, and my wife doesn't notice much difference while inside the truck. Now drop the windows, and you can certainly tell the difference, but with windows up, it's not a great deal louder. She actually likes the throatier sound now.

 

Silverline 4" dual - see my pics

 

I have the Jannetty Racing Exhaust, and it is not loud. It has a Magnaflow muffler.

Or you can get a new wife.

 

Banks 4". Not bad until 2000 RPMS, then NICE!

 

Something tells me that a new exhaust would be cheaper.

I have this on there now. Sounds good, not loud, no drone. The welds on the muffler rusted out when I was in Iraq. Probably a combo of salt air, and my father not driving it much.

Replacing it today with one of the Diamond Eye generic systems Rip Rook sells.

 

I'll have to look at mine when I get back, although I am in dry Montana. I will go to something else when this one rusts out.

 

What's his website or how can I see his products and prices?

MBRP 4" Exhaust here. Excellent quality.... everything fits nicely with all parts needed.... flow thru muffler.... quiet, but not too quiet!

'Wilber1' - You don't list location but if in 'road salt' country, and keeping CTD a while, I would go with Stainless Steel!

Put on the Diamond Eye from Rip Rook yesterday. The hardest part was removing the old exhaust-went through 3 saw blades, and still needed the big hammer and pry bar.

New exhaust fit without a problem. Had to do a bit of trimming since I have a regular cab. I decided to mount the muffler in the stock location between the 2 double hangers. Rip recommends to move it forward of where I put it. Looks, feels, installs, and sounds like a quality system. Definitely a deeper tone than my Jannetty exhaust(which I had no problem with besides rust). I think I'll like it.
