Exhaust Question
Hi, I have a 1993 Ranger with a 4.0L V6 Pushrod engine. My friends want to buy me a cherry bomb for my birthday. I want to know if it will make my truck sound any better? I am going for the V8 throaty sound. Also would a cherry bomb be legal in Waukesha, Wisconsin?

Should be legal, do you have inspections there? Check youtube for cherry bomb mufflers on Rangers.

If by inspections you mean emissions then yes. But it is a law through out the whole country I believe that if you car or truck is older than 1995 or 1996 you dont have to take emissions. I have a 1993!

I think as long as you have some kind of muffler you will be good to go. I had a glasspack on my 82 GMC and passed and that is in the strictest state for emissions.

Here is a clip of what it would probably sound like:

a better muffler will sound a lot better, you will sound like a loud farm truck but not a tuff truck

Only a V8 is going to sound like a V8.

cherry bombs arent bad, but as someone said only a V8 sounds like a V8.
and be careful u might get the ricer sound
go to youtube and type in your size engine witha cherry bomb and that should give u a good idea

Leave the cat on, and straight pipe it from the cat w/ larger than stock piping and it'll sound sick as hell.. Loud, but not tooo loud. I did it w/ my 2003 and its the throatiest V6 i've heard
