Re: turndowns at cab

I love the sound of a healthy engine. I think they sound best,no matter how long,when they exit out from under the body. Get's the fumes away,too. I'm not into carbon monoxide. I don't like the reverberating sound made by dumps up under the body. I would never run any exhaust any shorter than at least back "past" the cab for the sake of safety and health.I've heard many a 500+ 3" exhaust car with full length exhaust that you know are bad from the sound way down the block. Anywhere on the side sounds way baddass compared to straight out the back. Something about separating the sound from each pipe gives a more radical sound to me. Straight out the back smooths it out and puts it behind you.
