How driveable is your front bumper exit exhaust?

All I was saying is mine isn't as bad as a ton of other stuff out there. It's relative if you ask me. My fuel pump in my trunk makes more noise than my open downpipe does.

Nice.. Does the bullet take some of the sting out of it? I was worried a straight through might act like a resonator and almost make it louder but I have thrown the idea around about some kind of muffler if a bumper exit setup.
Let me ask this question to all of you who run it.....At idle, sittig in traffic, or cruising how bad is the smell/fumes in the car?

i have 2 one one each side 3" off the turbos and than a 4x9 magnaflow on each side behind the cover and its not that bad. it could be worse. it doesnt sound like open headers by any means. i pull next to a cop and he doesnt pull me over. its definitly not quite but its not load until u get on it than 3 foot flames shoot out of the side of the car on each side

Open downpipe is just loud period. I could only imagine out the fender is even louder than dumped.
This is a 6.0 with a mild cam. Downpipe dumped near the starter. You be the judge on if its to loud or not.

In my experience, not driving like an *** on the street goes A LONG way. Cops around here care more about dark tint than loud cars.
