Nope.

But I prefer a muff on single turbo trucks and none on compounded trucks.

Does that help?

I would say that 1 in 10 customers order my kits with a muffler. It just depends on your preference

Depends on your personal preference. Mine is 4" straight piped with 5" stack and it can get pretty loud with my foot in it. If you make sure that the lower lip of the stack is above the cab it will dramatically reduce the cab noise.

I ran for years with straight pipes but I love the sound of my 4" duals. Loved it so much I moded it to fit my Sub with the 6.5.
