QuoteThey are loud so be prepared.

I keep forgetting to listen to the video when I get home from work.  I really like the way it looks.  IF it gets to be too loud, it looks like you have plenty of room to use a glasspack style muffler right after the collectors.  Walker makes a "tough turbo" muffler that looks like a glasspack from the outside but is baffled on the inside.  Someone might even make a thin square/flat muffler that would fit there. 

Not saying you'll need one but exhaust is a very personal thing.  What sounds good to one person is way too loud for another.  Adding another muffler inline would quiet it down.

Exactly my thought too @Burdar.  I like the way it sounds now and this was my intent buying these, but if I get sick of it in my old age I can stick a baffled tube muffler in there to quite it down.   :drinkingbud:

Finally remembered to listen to the video. That sounds great! The entire car looks fantastic!

Sounds amazing. 
Is that a modern hemi?

Where did you get the AAR style graphics with the custom 392?

Thanks!  Yep, its a 2016 392 Hemi that I dropped in back in November.  The white AAR strobe was bought by the PO at Performance Car Graphics http://www.performancecargraphics.com/Stripes_Lettering/Vinyl_Color_Samples.htm

The 392 shields was printed and installed by a small local shop with the help of design and fonts by @Cuda Cody!

Does all your sound deadner help make it a quiet ride inside?

Can you post a pic of how they mounted the boom tube to the car please. I'm working on mine now and will be doing it at home with Pypes x pipe. Thanks, Mike

The AAR style side exhaust I had on included a bracket mounted to the inside of the frame rails, so we just used that for the boom tubes.  It holds it perfect with no bouncing and clears the pinch weld just enough.

Nice install. I think one of these days I'm going to have to check out your car in person since you are local to me and I'm doing a pro-touring Challenger with a 6.1.

Just relaxing at home on a Friday night, watching MASH and listening to exhaust clips. Love the sound of this car!
