does anyone have any good sound clips of exhaust on the colorado or any advice on a good exhaust

I want to know comparissons on loudness and tone as well! I've looked at the muffler on my truck and it's friggin huge! lol I would like to hear the difference between the Gibson and Magnaflow kits!

Gibson and Dynomax are not loud... go magnaflow, Edelbrock, or Flowmaster 40 series if you can... sorry i have no clips but jsut going from experience ive never really heard a really loud gibson or dynomax... they dont sound bad but they are jsut not that loud especially for the price.... go with one of the other 3 i suggested

Thanks for the input!

Do I need an offset muffler or can I put on a straight muffler? I can't tell if the stock muffler is offset or not.

What are you looking for in your system? Do you want a complete system or just change out the muffler? do you have a price limit? Any future mods planned? If you can give me a little more info I can give you some options that you might like. :great:

Well I wanted a full exhaust system but they were all too quiet for my liking! I don't want anything too flashy and I kinda like the look of the factory exhaust. I went and baught a magnaflow resonator style muffler that's a straight-through design and I'm going to keep the stock piping in and maybe later on have an exhaust shop make it exit out the side behind the rear tire with a magnaflow 3 inch tip (like the gibson or magnaflow catbacks). I usually like going custom anyways! We'll see how it sounds and go from there! Oh I was planning on getting the stage 2 Jet Chip, intake, and possibly later supercharge it if somebody comes out with one! I want an intake really badly but the K&N kit doesn't delete the resonator!!!!!!! That thing makes the intake look unfinished, in my opinion, and outright ugly! LOL

let us know how it turns out!!! Magnaflow makes good stuff you should be happy

I have the Flowmaster Super 44 muffler ONLY and for about $70 dollars, it sounds like I had all the piping re-done! I highly recommend Flowmaster if you want it to be loud. I believe the Original 40 series is a little bit louder though.

I'm trying to gut the second Catalytic converter but because of all the freakin bends in the piping, Im having a hard time nocking the junk out of it! I was thinking of buying a hand operated roto-rooter since that can flex through the bends! The coat hanger crap isn't cutting it! :no: It's too flimsy! Water always seems to work the best but I live in an aparment and have no access to a water faucet and hose. I don't want to gut the manifold cat, so using water is out of the question.

I have a flowmaster 40 with a gutted cat in the header and it sounds really nice. I would recommend it! I will post a sound clip later tonight!

So... the exhaust sounds awesome and I just put on the intake! I modded the set-up with a 4 inch aluminum tube to delete the resonator box. This mod alone makes the intake rediculously loud and it overpowers the exhaust tone! lol
Somebody needs to make a legit resonator box delete tube that works with the stock intake along with the K&N intake!

They do have it on 04, 05, and 06 models. I believe it was something to do with the MAF change so you couldn't use the older styles, but i know a guy that makes adapters so you can use the 06 model K&N with the 07/08 MAF I wanna say they are about 60 bucks

 

[emaxxer]

Can you give me some info on the adaptor? I would like to know more!
