_paralyzed_ Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 I love loud pipes. If I were given a prius I would straight pipe that bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToNasty Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 I disagree. Depending on the motor, a straight pipe can be bad because lack of back pressure. In my opinion it sounds sloppy ***Super Sellers List***http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Souldrop Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 I feel most of the time it's someone looking for some sort of attention and some who just enjoy the sound. It definitely adds to the feel of driving a powerful vehicle. I grew up in a small rural time, so there were plenty of trucks that had been straightpiped. Personally I won't ever do it, because I prefer the idea of silent power and being more conscious of pollution (emission and noise) I can turn down the radio, but the exhaust is always working with the truck running. To each his own, I don't judge just by a vehicle being straightpiped, but more of how that vehicle is being driven. If you're flooring it from every stop then yeah you just want attention. 1997 Lexus ES300 HU - Pioneer MVH 7350 Processor - Helix DSP Front Stage - JBL P660C Mid/high amp - Alpine PDX-F4 Subs - 1 IA Death Penalty 12 Sub Amp - Cactus Sounds PF300.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProMaxx316 Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 I had straight pipes on my VW GTi. My muffler fell off and I had ordered a new cat back system. The pipe was just installed so it wouldn't drag the converter and stuff. Cops didn't car and gave me a $260 ticket. My boss has straight pipe mustang, always got warnings. Never a ticket. I heard a BBC with straight pipes. And shit that fucker sounded mean. If it's worth building, it's worth over building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philrab Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 Happy medium would be some performance mufflers. Still quieter than straight pipes, but growly. 2015 Toyota Tacoma Build Thread 2007 Mazda 3; 5000K HID's, Kenwood Excelon KDC-X997, Infinity Reference 6.5 comps in front and coaxials in the rear doors, JL 320.4 four channel, Rab Designs built ported enclosure with an SA12, Kenwood monoblock, Redline Leater shift boot/e-brake boot/center console cover, JBR short shifter/shifter bushings/rear motor mount.

_paralyzed_ Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 What's wrong with wanting attention? Everybody wants attention. None of us are on this forum because we are anti social. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Souldrop Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 Yeah well flooring a straight piped truck down my neighborhood road in the middle of the night is not getting any positive attention. Yeah, I agree there's nothing wrong with wanting attention, but when it overtakes common courtesy and decency...I never said it was necessarily bad, just it's pretty obvious when someone is looking for it. 1997 Lexus ES300 HU - Pioneer MVH 7350 Processor - Helix DSP Front Stage - JBL P660C Mid/high amp - Alpine PDX-F4 Subs - 1 IA Death Penalty 12 Sub Amp - Cactus Sounds PF300.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
