BAmufflers tax season group buy 2020

Thanks. Not sure how I missed this.

 

Got the call, mine is shipping out today — I’m so pumped!

 

Stainless or aluminum?! I cant wait to get mine either!

 

I went with aluminized (I live in the desert).

 

Time has caused me to forget, but are we reaching out to them to make the second payment or are we waiting to be called back during our shipping week?

 

They called me to confirm shipment date and handle the remaining payment.

 

I live in FL and went stainless. Just in case I have to move.

 

Getting my new tailpipe ready for install — cut off the flared part so I can fit the new tip on. Now I just need to paint it all black.

 

Got mine on today. Got a before and after video if anyone is interested. Sadly I don't think the resonator will fit on my tailpipe. Anyone else run Into that?

Wont fit? @dirtydeeds any issues with fitment in the past? Won’t fit your tailpipe? Or won’t fit due to spare tire?

 

The curve of the resonator doesnt fit on my tailpipe

 

Look to place it further up. There should be a flat section and based on the picture look more toward that black tape.

 

I know where it goes I just drew an arbitrary arrow for illustration. Regardless the diameter of my tailpipe is the same in both spots. I could try to bend the resonator and make it work but it would be difficult

 

Are you referring to the c shape of the piece that wraps around the tail pipe? I know for mine it took some work to get it seated.

 

Yes, sorry for being vague. That is what I'm talking about the C shape.

 

See mine. It was kind of a pain but once you get it over it will stay in place so it takes some torquing it on. Originally I also thought it wouldn’t fit over.

 

Ok good to know. I'll try to install it again at a later time. So far loving it. It is however louder than I expected. But its great nonetheless.

 

Just got done installing my 8", sounds great and it was the easiest exhaust work I've ever done outside of just simply cutting a muffler out lol. I didn't tackle the resonator yet since I was working outside and it started to get nasty out but even without the resonator it doesn't seem like it'll drone too badly compared some other exhaust systems I've heard.

 

Keith says right in the exhaust install video that that specific section of the resonator is designed to be tight so it wasn't sliding around during install

 

So tight it's hard to put on?I really didnt think it would fit

 

It fits just needs some force to flex around the pipe

 

Anyone running the resonator with a 35” spare? I have been planning on getting one fitted (35” spare) but feel the resonator will get fitted first.

 

Just wanted to say that after a few hundred miles on the DD 6", I am very happy. It's only gotten better with time. Its loud, but not obnoxious and sounds mean in beast mode.

 

Do you all think that if I went with the 10” system, I wouldn’t need a resonator? Just looking to get a little bit noise than stock. I don’t tow anything.

Another thing is, can you just buy the muffler and have a shop install it?

 

I wondered the same thing - your first point.

The TRD exhaust uses 2 26x6 mufflers in a dual setup with no resonators. The only thing I found annoying about the TRD exhaust was the helicopter sound at crusing (due to the divorced dual setup) - not the actual volume or drone level. Is there a single outlet standard setup with whatever length mufflers that would be similar to the TRD without the use of resonators.

 

Never too early to expose him to the experience of camping.

 

This is my experience and hopefully someone can corroborate what I say here. I got the 10" system installed and had a little amount of drone without the resonator. I think the main reason for the drone is I'm on 295/70/18 tires so my engine has more load on it when starting up (which is when I experience the drone). After putting on the resonator it's night/day difference, no drone whatsoever at any RPM range. I figure if you're running a smaller tire size you may not need the resonator at all.

Side note, the system was a little louder than I anticipated but honestly it's really grown on me and I wouldn't go back.

 

Thank you for your input. Was hoping to find a way to cut the cost down a bit but it’s probably not worth it if there is gonna be any sort of drone.

 

I bought the standard budget system. I love it. I haven't installed the resonator and dont plan on it. I was actually thinking it would be louder but it's not as loud as I thought. I hear my tires over the exhaust cruising at 65. But I'm also sitting on 37x12.5x17 MT's so if you were running not that aggressive of a tire and and the rpms were lower from not pulling the heavier tires I would think you could hear the exhaust over the tires. But for me it's great.
