    I was thinking about putting 5 inch diesel tips on my 97 Z 5.7l its straight piped true duals. Just wondering if it would make it louder? Or just make it sound like butt. Just wondering if anyone has ever barked up this tree before...

    It will certainly resonate a bit more.... Whether or not it sounds good, though, is totally opinion-based. I personally don't like it that much, but lots of people do...

    does angle cut vs straight affect the sound any? or is it really just for looks?

    In theory it should have it come out at a slightly downward angle, which resonates off the ground and back up to the truck, but that's in a purely "on paper" scenario, who knows if it actually does anything in application, once you start factoring in exhaust pressure, atmospheric pressure, tip angle, piping length, etc...

    How about you do something tasteful instead of making it as obnoxious as humanly possible

    This guy wants to make his truck sound obnoxious to piss off a stranger on the Internet a thousand miles away. What a tool.

    Survey says:
    -He's in the 16-19 year old age range
    -Parents wouldn't buy him a Flowmaster so he cut his muffler off to "get back at the man!"
    -Someone he goes to school with has the same retarded tips/exhaust setup on their Dodge and OP must keep up with the Jones'
    -Probably has the front end cranked to the sky and ass end sitting stock..........aka, The Carolina Squat.
