Should I cut the muffler off my truck?

[Dzone]

TweetGot a chevy silverado and wondering if it will sound better if I just cut the muffler off and go with a straight pipe. Anyone done this? Or should I get a Flowmaster? Ive heard it sounds just as good to cut off the muffler. We dont have any laws against it where I live.
Thanks for your help

LOL...very redneck loud haha..well, I bought this 2000 Chevy Silverado just as a backup to my car, and as a farm truck. I didnt think I would be driving it so much, but I have driven it nonstop since I got it 3 weeks ago. I even took a girl out the other night in it lol...Now that I am driving it more than I thought, maybe I should just leave the muffler on it. I dunno. But I just like a truck to sound like a truck, not some Prius. lol

TweetIf you dont have smog requirements then hit a muffler shop up for best solution where you get good sound and horsepower. Sometimes just cutting things out creates problems. All the stupid sensor crap and computer. If it where really old i know you could just cut it out

Good luck

TweetThere are no inspections here. Someone said they can give you a ticket for noise, but I dont think it will be that loud.

TweetJust get a flow master muffler. Its cheap and sounds good

TweetDo it !!!
Then it can drown out those Stupid Rice Burners the Spanish people drive !!! Stupid ass low riding cars that are loud as fuck and make my car alarm go off every time they drive by. Plus their system is so loud and it usually costs more than the car itself .
I'm Puerto Rican so I can say these things . I HATE those fuckin cars . So make ur truck louder to piss them off !!!

TweetI'm telling u if ur pipes have baffles in them take them out u would be happy with increase in sound I did that with mine and the wife's Harley's

Tweetflowmasters are too expensive. had them on the GTO and they sounded awesome. found these that are basically a flowmaster 40 ripoff. they have a deep sound and reduce drone you get if you go straight pipe.
these are only $35

TweetDon't worry about a noise ticket I have a M3 with a full race exhaust and it's obnoxious and I've passed cops. It gives them a reason to pull you over though. I personally would get rid of the catalytic converter and run and flomaster. I'm sure what your computer would do.
