Sorry for the crappy quality I still have a s7 active lol

Sounds surprisingly throaty/bassie, even without headers (To me, it's common for muffler deletes to sound really "tinny/poppy" afterward for lack of better flowing manifolds, pipes, etc... I HATE when that happens...).
Hate to be this way, but can you get a recording of the truck from outside, both at idle/revving in park at a distance of about 10 feet away from the rear bumper and if possible, even with somebody/you doing a drive-by while being recorded from the curb (even at residential speeds would be fine)?
Use the same phone so we don't have a change in recording equipment (which BTW, my phone is even older than yours so don't feel so bad. LoL..)

Sounds good....

Man... Sounds good... Deep-good, not just redneck loud.
Even at idle it sounds like a very throaty tone...
Ok, now can you do a Dukes of Hazzard type of jump (about 20 feet should be good) with the pedal to the floor as you fly over the top of the camera?
LoL..

Awesome!!! Thanks for the recording effort.
I think the ****. delete is in my 2016's future.
Gotta keep up with my neighbor and the Roush exhaust he has on his Ford Raptor (but I think his actually sounds a bit "tinny" compared to yours)...

Have you noticed any performance changes?
Any fuel economy differences (or are you still pushing the pedal more because you aren't used to the good sounds yet? LoL...)

When I first did it went from a 24 mpg average to 18 mpg due entirely to the smile factor. Performance I great infact with a xpipe u increase scavenging which increases velocity which creates more power not lose like the myth goes lol. Mpgs are now back up to the normal 24 range but on their way down because I just got a pedal commander and the smiles started again on sport+ -2 this think seems like it has 800 hp *****. Also Ill work on that duke video I may need help with a go fund me though to replace some parts after.

Yes larger diameter tips will deepen the tone, great mod for looks and sound!

If anyone has a stock muffler in good shape, I may be looking.

If you really want it to sound badass drive around in Tow/Haul a while.

I see that damn yaw control almost made you kiss the building (in that "Rev" video you posted, when your friend commented that "he didn't make it").. We have to figure out how to shut that yaw-crap off! Exhaust sounds good though! It would sound even better if you could do a NASCAR turnaround!

Your videos really have me tempted to roll the dice on the solo delete. I don’t want to cut and weld (like idea of quick bolt on changes). I have 5” tips and have been looking for videos of people who have the 5.7 with 5” tips and delete. Currently have 5” tips and carven progressive.

Kinda thinking it’s low risk. I can get delete. If don’t like sell it on forum and loose like 50-60 only. But the video where u rev in the ally and take off... half way down you hit throttle and it shifts and grawls. That’s the sound I love
