Default Which is louder?

Which is louder a TSP Rumbler with ORY and LT's.

Or a TSP TD setup?

Also any powergain from the TD's? Cant decide what to get.

(I have given up on the new search engine)

True duals are the loudest exhaust, hands down.

Most people look to replace the TD's after doing H/C because they become too loud.

wow dude two totally different animals. TDs sound GREAT but can be too loud at times and you lose ground clearance. LTs and ORY with a catback is your best all around choice. heres a video of my TA with TSP TDs with Dynomax bullets. umm loud bro




oh and i see you already got the rumbler? i guess you just dont like mufflers huh? you have big ***** to do that in California.

A buddy of mine has that setup too. I think it's louder than TSP duals. Very wicked and raspy sounding!

His **** is the loudest F-body I've ever heard.

it depends what mufflers you use for td how loud they will be...a lot of stock cars come with true duals and they aren't loud at all

either way, td will sound better than y pipe hands down
