shud i do straight pipes?
 

I have an 06 5.3 liter and i really want to improve my sound cheapest way possible. is this smart? i need help!!! im jsut saying cut the muffler off and maybe get like straight y pipe

Thats what I have on my 92. Sounds great on the old TBI 350, but I don't know how it will sound on the newer trucks

youtube has a lot of examples to listen too. Not a real life example, but better than taking a stranger's word for it. I have always done straight pipes on all my cars/trucks. I love the sound and power but thats also how I got my DUI. was pulled over for modified muffler, what ever you do just be aware that if you drive around that loud you should be on your best behavior. PS. I'm thinking about doing the same thing on my 2000 sierra this weekend!

Got a Bullit muffler from e-bay . . .

It sounds pretty good too !

The cost was @ $40.00

Four inch in & out .

Hey I have a 05 Crew Cab Z71 and that is exactly what I did. I think it sounds GREAT!!! But just as "troyschwab" said if you live somewhere where they can get real strict about loud pipes it might not be a good idea. If you dont care or the cops aren't too bad then go for it. I cut the muffler out and put a Y-pipe in with 3 1/2 inch tips. I love the sound and it was about 75-100 dollars cheaper.
