    I want a better sounding exhaust that is aggressive off the line but also want to hear the radio or talk on the fone on the highway so minimal drone. I have a single out stock exhaust, should I put duals or keep it single and should I just change the muffler and put a cool tip on or ? I just can’t decide?? Please help

    Cat back with two mufflers feeding into a y-pipe exiting through the stock tail-pipe, install a Helmholtz device to kill drone.

    That’s interesting, but I still need to decide on muffler brand

    I concur! They are relatively easy to install. Keith has a great YouTube install video. It’s technically all bolt on, utilizing the existing hanger system. https://youtu.be/i79q3q3kaHs

    What is 6” 8” 10” referring to? I assume the length of the muffler?
