Ok so at the moment im running a 3 inch exhaust all the way back to duel 3 in hooker maxflow mufflers my car is pretty loud and I kinda feel like im being rude to the neighbors so I was wondering if I took the two mufflers off and put only 1 midway up the car before the exhaust pipes split would it quite it down some or if I should just change mufflers and put a cut out

That sounds great, I wouldn't change it. Just be courteous as can be for the neighbors. It's the same thing with Harleys. Just don't flog it in the neighborhood

Yea I like how it sounds just think the elderly lady next door doesn't like it I usually just coast out the neighborhood

It does sound great man i wouldn't want it quieter.
I feel bad sometimes but I've never had anything but compliments on my muffler and cat delete. Cold starts are loud man no two ways about it.

A good quality resonator would help out just enough

yeh i was gonna say, that makes my 214/220 sound tiny lol

tim4daflow

The cam is 220 224 I believe this is it without a resonator and flow masters this is like 5 times as loud as it is now the phone doesn't do justice on how loud it is

it does sound like your tuner needs to bump up your idle rpm just a tad though what RPM you idle at

Custom grind or did you buy it from somewhere? Curious about the full specs. On the edge of being large for the 5.3 and you can hear it, im curious what our idle engine vacuum is. I had to bump mine up to about 800rpm with 20* of idle timing advance to get some decent idle vacuum, it ranges from 48-52kpa depending on whether its hot or cold.

tim4daflow

Im not sure what it idles at to be honest lol ill give a update on that and yea I believe this is considered a big cam for our motors its a custom grind

Do you happen to have a cam card on the full specs?

Pretty sure it was a 224 228

I think u right 91 yea I got a card for it just cant think of it off hand been shoppin for a cam for my truck lol ill post the specs

sounds good. but like someone else said a good resinoator or just an additional muffler upstream would help. or a cat but you probably dont want to do that.
i have a similar setup 3 inch all the way back and dual flowmasters. it was crazy loud without a cat, i put one of the flowmaster bullet cats on and it helped. i have a dynomax bullet laying around that i'm going to add to it as well

Been reading into the vibrant ultra quiet resonator 1142 or the magnaflow 14719 to put upstream of the mufflers to help quiet the car down just a tad
