So i have my truck currently running just stright pipe from the cat back and i been pondering what i can toss on there for cheap. the ole fleet has a cherry bomb for 23 bucks. would that sound ok on a stock 2.8? any thoughts or input would be apperciated.

cherry bombs

about what size is yours? the one i was looking at is a 28" and iv heard that the longer ones are quieter and deeper toned.there are ones i can get that are longer or shorter but they are not 2'' and id need an adapter. iv planned on putting it on where my stock muffer went... it should fit there i think. i did also have thoughts of maybe finding a way to get duals that end just before the back tires but im not sure how id go about that.

Get a 29.99 thrush welded muffler from summit, its just like a flowmaster. I had a pair on my stang and they sound great.

I have the Thrush 2.5" on my B2 with gutted cats and some other little stuff. It sound flat out nasty! Think of a rowdy little small-block minus 2 cylinders.

My dad put a flowmaster 40 si/so on his 92 Ranger 2.9. People are always asking him about how he put a v8 in it.

theres no way you could ever compare a 2.9 to a v8 sound. imo flowmasters sound terrible. but to each his own

My Flowmaster 40 series sounds great behind a 4.0 !
