I finally did it and i love it. Mufflex muffler delete and no resonator. I dont tow and and barely go in the highway so i cant help you with the sound there but at least city and i dont go fast i love it. Every where i pass by people look. Also when i start it at a parking lot is super loud but nice loud and evryone looks like wtf is in that truck lol. Anyway im trying to post the 2 videos of start up and revs but even though i made them really small it wont let me load them here so. Unless someone helps me with that the obly thing that comes to my head is send me your number or email and ill send you the videos and maybe one of you can post them. 786 232 1034 [email protected]

It’ll quiet down. I noticed this morning that I no longer have that 65-75mph drone that I had in the beginning, which I like. But yeah, I like the “wtf was that?” looks I get. I’m used to that in my mustang, now I get that in the truck too lol. What did you do about the resonator? Cut it off, or did you use a diesel tail pipe?

My opinion about the sound is that is definetively better and more truck like but thats just my opinion but i dont think anyone will disagree with me that it definetively looks a lot better without that damn resonator and tailpipe on. And im sure it will look better as soon as i put the blacked rbp tail pipe

I must be the only person alive not bothered by the look of the resonator.

Sounds good. Thanks for sharing. I have a Solo Performance muffler delete on the way. I am going to try that and then I may cut the resonator off after as I hate the look of it.

Do you do any towing? I wonder what the drone will be like?

I wish the truck sounded more throaty but i love how quite the cab is on the highway. Im afraid of losing that since i do mostly highway cruising. When i do decide to take the leap i will purchase from you.

Ive read nothing but good things.

I do tow in occasion. I'm installing mine most likely next weekend. I'm going to do some videos and take some pics. Let me know if there is anything in particular you want to see

Thank you, that is very much appreciated!

I’d wait a few weeks on those videos. I noticed that my Mufflex has quieted down a bit over the past month now that it’s broken in.

What is to break in? It's the mufflex delete it's straight piped, I do understand the mufflex with magnaflow changes sounds but I don't see a straight pipe with no resonator getting quieter.

IMG_1853.JPG I would suggest for 56PW17 to do some serious WOT towing on some long steep Interstate or highway grades due to I believe in that situation the stock Power Wagon noise level is quite loud enough. For example, towing up any grade of 8% or steeper all one hears in the cab is the exhaust drone of the 6.4L giving its all.

Been running Thrush Turbo and Magnaflow mufflers on V8 engine trucks since the mid 1970s. Love the tone, but I am sticking with the stock exhaust system on the Power Wagon. It has just the right resonator tone for blowing pass a Prius on any grade. Anything louder would become quite annoying when towing at WOT. That's my opinion.

While that doesn't sound to loud in your video, that got to be crazy loud under heavy load.

Whether or not you see it happening is irrelevant, it’ll happen. The inside of the pipe will coat with carbon and help to cut down on resonances. I have the same kit and after 2-3 weeks I noticed significantly less drone at the 65-75 mph zone.

No way, I like it too. If it sounded better I'd keep it. My only issue is that I'm indecisive on which option I should go with as I live in a residential area with a lot of families with young kids so I can't get anything that's excessively loud but would like something with a better growl to it.

Story semi related. Went to take my son to school this morning, and I hit the remote start just as the garage was opening. He ran out of the garage and was standing right next to the tail pipe when it started. Needless to say I almost had to peel him off the roof of the house lol
