5in exhaust
 

I got a 5in exhaust on my 05 right ow but i still have the muffler but no cat on it. I made me a delete pipe but im kinda hesitant to put it on because ive heard some people say that itll be really loud but still sound like crap because i have a 7in tip. Any input would be great! :humm:

Straight piped CRs sound horrible IMO. I say don't do it.

I think straight pipe on diesels is just sound bad

I run a 5" with muffler (no cat) and I can't imagine taking the muffler out...:s:

I put a 5 inch stainless MBRP on mine with a 5X6 double wall tip and everyone that hears it days its the best sounding 5.9 CR they have heard. Its thoaty and sounds great in my opinion..:tu:

well i did it last night and it is extremely loud but i think im gunna like it. just dont think the little critters in the back seat will enjoy it as much as i do. thanks for all the advice though

Re: 5in exhaust
 

I think they sound sweet.

Once you get going down the road at 55 or 60 MPH, its not as loud as you would think. Mine really RAPS pretty loud when I am under a load at about 2200 RPM's though.. I LIKE IT!!!:yeah::yeah:

I have a 5in from the turbo back and i love the sound of mine, but i also have a exhaust manifold

Ummmmm.......Pretty sure everyone has an exhaust manifold.:humm:

well i am pretty sure of that to but i dont think everyone has ats one :humm:

Sorry if im going a little off topic but im wanting to put the 5 inch turbo back on my 05 but ive heard pple say that a 5inch exhaust on a stock truck will actually loose hp due to not enoygh back preasure... is that true or jus pple being dumb

You will be fine my friend. The turbo it self creates all the back pressure you need.:c:

Thats what i thout, no okw what bout sound difference between the 4" exhause andthe 5", is there a diffeence

5" will give you a deeper tone compared to a 4", as far as a performance difference you won't be able to tell from 4-5"

I appreciate all the info. Thankx

No problem glad I could help!:c:

The only reason people go with 5" is for the beautiful noises that it makes. You wont get any power gains over a 4" aftermarket system from the same brand.

My buddy had a 5" on his 06' and it sounded like a friggen jet. He said that the shop did have to hammer a dent into his firewall so the 5" down pipe would fit. I wasnt there so I couldnt tell ya why they had to do it. And my exhaust is still mostly stock. Just missing the cat and the yahoo before me put 6' of flex pipe in its place so I have a saggy exhaust system:dang: I would go out and buy a 5" turbo back system by my wife would definitly know I did it. All my modds so far havent made it taller or louder so she doesnt know about em:w2:

i have 5 inch all the way to my tip...and my tip is 10 inch..check my pics if u dont believe...i think mine sounds awesome espically when im going up a hill around 1300 rpm and my twins start to light:)

How do you like your twins? And for the install. What all did you have to do/modify to get it all in there. An

I love the twins the boost is just unreal. When i pulled it in July as i was taking off from the line i was at 3100RPM and glanced over and was sitting at 60PSI of boost,after that idk how high it got... i can put a few pics up so u can see them..ill PM you when i get time to take some.

I am running a 5" MBRP exhaust, no muffler and no catalytic converter......I think it sounds great

put a 2nd gen manifold on as well ifts awesome.
