dumps will make it louder at idle....and it will change the way it sounds all together...im going with dumps on my dynomax race bullets that i just got. i heard they sound much better with dumps

my dumps are so loud and resonating they set off the alarm on my wife's (and others at the mall and such) car. They are quite loud because the sound bounces directly from the ground...it also looks cool on cold mornings when the condensation from the exhaust is pooling out around your rear tires!! 
dumps
I had dynomax turbos and tail pipes, and freind recommended dyno max race magnums, I decided to go with dumps as well...Lux them. With dumps the car sounds a bit quiter at idle, I think the ground muffles the sound a bit. With T/P the sound comes right the back. Not that loud a cruise, but when I hit it has a very destinct sound ..I also have an x pipe .blackcobra said:

I just installed 3 inch MAC PRO Dumps on mine this morning. They are quieter than the dynomax bullets that I did have on it. I like the idle of the dynomax better but the MAC sound better when driving around. I say go with the dumps, easy to work with, less weight, and plenty of clearance. (tailpipes used to rub the rear tires)
Dumps have their ups and downs. I have them on now but am switching to tailpipes next week. Here is what I have found about dumps:
Pros: Louder, deeper idle, more intimidating, less restrictive
Cons: Loud drone in the car, will get more attention (good and bad), you will smell like exhaust if sitting long at all, lose a little torque due to less backpressure.
Nonetheless, I have had mine on for 2 years and they are pretty fun, sound good, I am mostly just tired of smelling like a gas tank.

Do it!!! You won't regret it. I run Dynomax Bullet's combined with an X Pipe and Dump's and it sound's mean as hell behind my 408.... Setting off car alarm's all the time is a common occurance for me.

i dunno if anyone has taken into consideration inspection...don't you need tail pipes to pass the "visual" part of the test?
this might cost a lot, but i've been toying with the idea electric cut outs welded right after the muffler, then have the tail pipes welded to the other side. with the flip of a switch, dumps, another flip and you've got tail pipes. just an idea, but probably a lot of $$$ for the cut outs.

The only thing I have to say is I love them. With a big duration cam it thumps. It's so nice. Interior nosie isn't bad at all with a notch but hatch are louder inside then notches.
