Not happy with exhaust sound

Not happy with exhaust sound
I just installed a complete new exhaust system. Flowtech headers and y pipe, American thunder flowmaster system and no cat. Engine is a 91 5.0 TPI with smog delete. I do not like this sound at all. Should I give it a little time before I decide to change it out. Sounds like all the other trucks in my neighborhood, lol

I dislike my flowmaster cat-back exhaust too. Looking to sell it on craigslist or something so i can put on magnaflow or borla.
sounds hollow, right? mine might be a bit different because its only cat-back though.

Never liked the sound or performance of the flowtek crap. Also not a fan of the american thunder sound. But let it break in a bit see how it goes. Worst thing you end up doing is swapping the muffler.

Re: Not happy with exhaust sound
Change out your catback to a borla or gmmg exhaust. if your on a budget go with the hooker catback.
