I think I have found the absolute best exhaust combo:

MAC O/R H-pipe + Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers + exhaust leak.


I noticed today that I had an exhaust leak somewhere. I haven't checked it out yet so I don't know where. Anyway, when I get on it in 1st and 2nd gear it has that race car sound but when I hit 3rd and 4th it gets the muffler exhaust tone and stays quiet. It's awesome I might not even fix it

I love my dynomax mufflers. No one really has them so I'm very unique! Your ultra flo's sound different than mine though.

Exhaust leakes deminish lowend HP/torque, and since you spend most of your time down there, you have to push on the gas more to get it to move= lower milage. However its usually very slight.

Sounds pretty good. Sounds a little more higher pitched than my combo of MAC off road H-pipe and MAC exhaust.

Actually at WOT it gets a little high pitched but not bad. At lower RPM's between 2k and 2500 it gets really low.
