Ok we got our truck staight pi0ped yesterday. How as expectected I can tell where the drone might be a problem. However it isnt bad empty. Just thinking ahead in case the drone gets bad. I heard the idea of a piece of angle iron strapped to the pipe. However what about using 2 performance diesel mufflers in parallel. Like 2 resistors? Would 2 mufflers hooked up side by side using a 3 into 2 2 1/2 outlets to dual mufflers back to a single 3" work? Like electronics would the resulting parrallel mufflers be less restrictive than a single 3" muffler? Just looking to be different

I have been told one muffler will cure it. Place the muffler as far back as you can, and it is supposed to cure drone. Why bother with 2 when 1 will fix it?

 

just to be different? Was thinking that it would be less restriction than 1 muffler. Kinda like 2 resistors in parrallel.

 

The flow of air and the flow of electicity are 2 different ballgames.

To get the best flow from exhaust you want to take the path of least resistance. A straight thru muffler is the best.

 

Yes, diverting flow into two streams and back again will not be as effective as a straight through flow design. Every time you change diameter or change the flow direction you add some pressure drop, or in this case resistance.
