Default DR. GAS Boom Tubes

I was wondering how loud my car would be with my SLP Longutbes, 3inch Xpipe, and if i take out the Maganflow 4x9's and throw in Sweet thunder Mufflers, and then exiting out the side before the rear tire toss in some Boom Tubes. How loud, and how good will it sound.
Thanks
-Joel

Not sure what "Boom tubes" are, but Magnaflows are notoriously quieter than sweet thunders.

look into flo-pro twisters, they sound ******* awesome! I love mine! NO rasp, but a very low tone

you could physically not fit all of that without it hanging all funny.


boom tubes by themselves are crazy loud..my buddy has them...i run side exhaust with auger mufflers...its about as loud as boom tubes..my ears hurt everytime i drive.

but it sounds so badass.


there isnt a reason to run an x pipe with them...they have their own scavaging effext.
