What exhaust are you 5.0 guys running?

Zylone · 03-14-2005, 02:47 PM

My car curently has BBK long tubes, offroad Dr. Gas X pipe and 1 chamber flows dumped. It sounds really nice and everything, but I want something different. I heard a 5.0 the other day and didn't get a chance to ask her what she has under there... I am looking for a muffler that will produce more of a "hollow" sound. I am tired of hearing flows all around town or mufflers that sound like the car is in an echo chamber. I would like just a RAW sounding muffler. Much like you hear on old muscle cars. No muffled echo sounding poo... just clean crisp (you can hear each cylinder) hollow sounding exhaust =) I am not worried about noise level either. Just want it nice and crisp!

Mac long tubes with a modified factory h-pipe (the first half cut off with 3" collectors welded on) into 2.5" pipes and 54" side pipes. It has a deep rumble like the older muscle cars used to and it's not (too) loud inside the car.

the type of heads you run will also change the sound of your exhaust.

I use to run BBK shorty headers w/ Mac H-pipe and 1 chamber Flows, it was too loud. Maybe it was cause of the bigger size motor, now I run 1 3/4 BBK Long tube headers, Pypes Performance X-pipe, and Dynomax Bullets...it sounds pretty good.
