my buddy has a 05 dodge with 5" exhaust and a 7inch stack that points down to the ground that he uses as a exhaust tip and it is the loudest diesel truck i have ever heard!! i want mine to be louder!! will a 5" exhaust then to 7" stacks out the box be louder or what can i do to make mine louder? 6" exhaust?

bro, I got half of my H&S kit and right now its a down pipe and 1 piece of a straight pipe. Besides the fact you would die of diesel fumes while driving with the windows up, its hella loud. I think it might be bc it's right under neath you too. But I think a 5.9'er will still out do ya for loudness. Maybee, but a megaphone as your exhaust tip. :)

those with stacks are the 7" stacks that much louder than a 5" stack? and are dual stacks louder than a single stack? thanks

I would guess duals are louder then single. As far as size, i think that just changes tone mainly. the 5" stacks are going to sound raspier then 6" and so on, I am guessing.

I have everything on my truck to the bumper and its freaking loud. I also have a 8 inch tip ha ha ha!!!!!!!!!

Another reason is the VGT, it seems to quiet the exhaust a bit and take over altogether with the EB engaged. I think the EB/Towhaul coasting to a stop with a 5" TBE would make anything else sound inferior...IMO for anyone who has experienced... My setup is not stainless but I can only imagine.

You want loud spend about 3500 dollars on a zues ecm. It can run on one single injection event and will sound like a 12 valve. And ditch the vgt for a fixed vein turbo and put on a second gen manifold and youll sound just like a 12 valve. If i had the monjey id do it. I will get to itt one day

taking out the VGT makes it sound like a 5.9 on steroids (Through the exhaust).
