yea, yea. But "loud" is annoying. You can still achieve loud and have a good sound. Just blaring under the truck is stupid and will just draw attention. This is just my opinion tho. I have achieved loud without sounding like shit.

Infact, I had just my headers and flowmaster installed on my truck. Didnt have the money/time to put the tails on. I drove my truck for about 2 weeks with the muffler ending right after the cab. It sounded like shit and gave me a headache!

well then you should change/learn terminology. Dumping is the "dump" of exhaust at the muffler. I would run it to the rear, either corner exit or straight exit and go with a bigger pipe, like 2.5". But since you have no sig, I dont know what size motor you have
