Power Strokes 1994-1997 Upgrades and AftermarketUpgrading or adding OEM or aftermarket equipment to your 1994-1997 Ford F-Series with Power Stroke engine.
Aftermarket mufflers flow pretty good. Only thing you really get from no muff is a killer turbo sound. Personally Im an aircraft mechanic, a turbine engine mechanic at that. Im already deaf =). Between my powerstroke running strait and my buddies 12v cummins running strait one of our nabors didnt like it at 5am when we went to PT. But that was only one guy all the other nabors love it... lol I like hearing the truck my car is much louder and it has mufflers.

Ya the turbine is in the flow and does dampen the noise some.
I think in the long haul the muffler is a better deal.
I did run the engine right after insalling the down pipe by its self. Would be great if I was still a kid ( Look At Me! ) loud. Running the plumbing out the back is better. I have heard trucks around here with straight pipes. From a distants it tolerable. I don't know what the in cab experience would be. (huh? What did you say?) loud? Long trip anoying? Give you a head ake?
Try it with the delete pipe and let us know.

What's flutter? I just bought a truck a couple of weeks back and didn't even realize it didn't have a muffler until I was poking around underneath. Yes, it was running.
