Hey y'all, this is my first post here so if it's in the wrong spot please let me know.
Anyways, I have a '03 Ram 2500 with the 5.7 Hemi. Its got the single, side exit exhaust, no CAT (it rusted out on the previous owner, so he just straight piped it and I don't have e-check where I live) and a muffler from Midas. It's really loud right now but I'm fine with that, my only issue is with the tone of the exhaust. It's a little high pitched for my taste and when I go to shift or get on the gas hard, you start to hear a crackle.
I don't have the money for a new CAT or exhaust system so I'm asking for ideas on how to get rid of the crackle and deepen the tone of the exhaust without killing my wallet. Would a larger tailpipe (everything after the muffler) or a large exhaust tip do anything to help? Or is there an aftermarket item that I could fit before or after the muffler to catch the short high pitched sound waves? The crackle is really the part that I want to get rid of.
