Rodney & Mark,
What I have on my '91 with the ATS Turbo kit
sounds like just what you guys want. ATS furnishes
a straight through 3" inlet and outlet glasspac
type muffler (has the deep sound and turbo whine
--From what i was told to expect is a deep throaty
--decell and a very defined turbo whine under accel.
--That's sounds cool!

Rodney & Mark,
What I have on my '91 with the ATS Turbo kit
sounds like just what you guys want. ATS furnishes
a straight through 3" inlet and outlet glasspac
type muffler (has the deep sound and turbo whine
you are talking about). After the muffler is a 3"
exhaust pipe mandrel bent for no back pressure.
You would have to check with ATS, but the tailpipe
probably fits the P/S trucks. Come to think of it,
I have the muffler part number (it's a Walker), you
could probably order it from a parts house. Let me
know if you want it. JD
