Best/Loudest Sound

I want a loud truck but have heard that straight piped duramaxs dont sound to good, I have a 4'' MBRP TURBO BACK exaust with no kitty and a muffler, Im considering removeing the muffler to make it louder. It already sounds great, but want it louder.

I love the sound of a straight piped d-max. There not loud at all at idle. At WOT there still not loud inside, but scream pretty good outside.

Run a set of 5" stacks, that will give you the noise you want. Then add in some nitrous and you will have a loud, fast, sleeper truck!

Ya Id straigth pipe it for sure! Heres pics of mine. I used band clamps and a stick or you can get the muffler delete for around $50 + band clamps.

The good thing about doing it that way is theres no need for welding or stretching the pipe and if you want to remove it then add the muffler in again you can and reuse the clamps! :d
