my 2000 f550 has stock system to the muffler then muffler cut out and replaced with straight pipe. i have no cat, and it is loud. i have set off many car alarms with it. but i did find out something very interesting. one section of the stock 2002 gmc duramax exhaust has the perfect bends in it to replace the muffler and it is the same size pipe. works great.

I put in a muffler delete and didn't notice an in-cab change, or while driving. But when I drove through downtown Des Moines a few days ago, you could really hear the turbo singing.

i just put the 4" straight pipe from turbo back and added the napa filter to mine and its very quiet. the only thing thats really loud is the whistle from the turbo. As far as LOUD no i dont think u can make these trucks really loud unless u do as stated above, but the turbo whistle does sound pretty cool
