ok I would like to see what everyone has to say, so recently I have thought about doing an exhaust on my truck I was planning on buying a tymar dp and then just doing my own exhaust. my thought was this and this is where i would like opinons. I use this truck for work and right now everyday driving but in a few months it will be a work truck strictly. the question is what do you guys think about just dumping the exhaust under the truck? i wasnt going to put a cat or a muffler on the truck anyway and instead of bringing it all the way back to over top the axle and all of that I was just going to dump it somewhere before the rear axle maybe at the start of the bed or something and just put a 45* or 90* on it pointing towards the ground. have you heard any trucks that have done this and has it been balls loud or do you think it will be 2 loud or do you think it would like **** I just want peoples opinons. And the reason im not going with a full exhaust over the axle and all is because i would like somethin a little different and i dont have the need to look at a pipe behind my wheel. and for the size i was just going to continue the size of the end of the downpipe (3.5 inch or 4inch w.e it is)into my exhaust and dump it under the truck
opinons please!

Cut to the side in front of rear wheel. It might be a little loud if straight piped. Had a 6.9L set up that way with dual glass packs out in front of rear wheels; that pickup would TALK when worked hard!
Without going out the side or back it will be very loud, and smelly
