Way to ruin the motor, reving it upo right after cranking lol? And straight pipes rob gas mileage and you have no backpressure whatsoever. Cherry bombs are nice, But just packed with fiberglass like a factory muffler lol. which burns out over time and sounds raggedy.
3- straight pipes don't rob mileage or back pressure. Back pressure doesn't play into this, it is exhaust velocity, and I had plenty with the cat in place.
5- Factory mufflers do not have packing. They have a series of baffles and chambers. Once again, they do not burn out. They might rust out after years of service, but not burn out.
6- You are clearly an idiot that knows nothing about vehicles. You make up statements that you beleive to be true and hammer people online. Do some real research.
1 - reving a motor to 3K with full oil pressure isn't going to damage the engine. I drove this truck over 300,000 miles, so I can say that without a doubt.
I like the sound of my flowmaster, not to mention I notice an increase in MPG over factory...personal preference I guess, cherry bombs are just too loud
@backyarddoall cherry bombs dont flow all as good as you think.. You need some back pressure but at the same time you want good velocity.. More flow is good until a point
Marginal gains and no loss. I saw a big increase over the crappy FLOWMASTER, but that is absolutely no surprise, they should be called Flowlessmistresses.
The factory cats on the newer style trucks seem to flow well for a fairly stock truck. You can still run magnaflow cats, but you will have to run a pair of them. No big deal really, just twice the expense.
Since your truck is an 01, I would cut the Y pipe off and run a x pipe and dual pipes out from there. Better sound. Whatever the size of the pipe coming out of the converter is the size pipe I would have the rest of the system done with. No since going larger, no benefit.
made no effect on sound, doubt it made it louder. The truck was impossible to drive quietly, even at an idle it was insanely loud. Within 2 weeks, it had a muffler on it.
The entire system is 3 inch. The factory y-pipe was 3 inch, from there to a 3 inch high flow catalytic converter, and just a professionally done smooth pipe all the way out to the stock position. It is very subtle and I regularly get asked when I am going to put an exhaust system on it. Once I start it, they can't believe it.
no muffler at all, only a high flow cat. It now has a cherrybomb extreme on it, the smallest one they make in a 3 inch. Didn't change teh sound of it.

2- my truck didn't have straight pipes, it had a single 3 inch pipe with a cat on it.

4 - Cherybomb is a name brand, not a style of muffler. My muffler had no packing in it, it was a chambered muffler. Nothing to burn out.

Why would I put a crap flowmaster on my truck and plug the exhaust up. Flowmaster's have the worst flow of any muffler on the market.
The truck now has a Cherrybomb on it, one of the highest flowing mufflers on the market.

have any gains in power or did you lose any power

@backyarddoall Yeah man, I hate Flowmasters too. I like glasspacks.

did you lose any power and mpg?
4x4truck321 1 year ago
I doubt there was much gain over the stock exhaust, I would say within 2 MPG, but once again, compared to the NOFLOWMATER, I saw nearly a 5 MPG jump.

A key factor is the high flow cat. A stock cat is going to be really quiet.
