murphmaster5 · Nov 14, 2005

getting ready to buy a set of dumps and would like info on witch set to get thanks

i think most people make their dumps since they are nothing more then a piece of bent pipe welded or clamped to the back of the muffler. i know i just cut up the stock exhaust to make my dumps

yea just go get a set of dumps from pep boys pipe section - mine sounded better comin right out of the muffler w/ my flows, when i dumped them, it killed the sound, n i took them right back off

I dont recommend running dumps, its way too loud for daily driving! Mine droned like crazy If you want your car to sound more aggressive, run long tube headers without cats.

mine are cut right after the mufflers. Sounds awesome!!! plus mine is an LX and i hate the tailpipes coming out from the back.(kills the sleeper look i have!!!)

oh and dust and everything get all over the car when u crank it more with turn downs then the cut off pipes. Thats another reason i dont have them!!

wont just cutting off the pipes get exhaust soot all over the undercarriage after time though?

MAC.....I have them, they sound great with a big cam....if your still running a stock cam it will sound like a chevy ( crap ).

I have short tube headers, an offroad h pipe and 3 chamber flows on my 86. I bought a panhard bar from Griggs and had to chop my tails off, which I did not want to do. So I havd to dump my 3 chamber flows, and it sounds better than when I had tails. But I only put on maybe 1000 miles a year so I can deal with it being louder. I don't mind. Daily driver, I would say no.

Spintech sportsmans dumped off long tubes and a D-pipe. Incredible sound! I like it much more than i did my 40 series long tube/off road h combo.

Every dumped muff will drone, my combo drones at about 16-1700 rpm...other than that its actually pretty quiet inside. Thats on a 95 though....

I drive mine everyday with bbk shorties, o/r h-pipe and and flowmaster 1-chambers dumped

ram360 · Nov 15, 2005

I agree. I have fms shorties, O/R H pipe, and 2 chamber flows dumped and its the loudest at like 1300 and they dont drone at all they just shake the car a bit. Mine are pointed almost straight at the ground....so it shakes pretty hard...I think im going to angle em out a lot more.

40 series 2 chamber flows, they sound awesome and who really cares about interior sound. its the outside sound that matters.

dls322 · Nov 16, 2005

I had my made at my race shop. Ran BBK full lengths, into BBK H-pipe. We took 2 2-chamber flowmasters, mounted flow tubes (flange ended short pipes required for hooking up to the H-pipe) then into the flow masters then dumped. No Cats. At first the sound was not as aggressive as i had hoped, but after a couple hunded miles the mufflers opened up and she sounds mean!
-Word of advice, since i'm running a convertible, i'm constantly sucking in exhaust at stop lights.....totally worth it IMO.

stangnutlx · Nov 16, 2005

i have BBK long tubes H-pipe with original 40series dumped..... honestly they sounded alright at first now i hate to drive the car... I think they suck!!!

Now im switching to Spintech Sportman streets and tailpipes....

TheUser · Nov 16, 2005

I have stock headers and a prochamber on my 90 LX 5.0 and, of course, 2 chamber flows...cut the tail pipes off to get new ones welded on and haven't gotten them welded on in over a month or two I'd say, so it jus cuts off after the mufflers. It's loud...sounds pretty good, but kinda does get annoying. It makes the stereo kidna hard to hear...I normally had mine on 55-58 before, and now I catch myself turning it up to 65-69 just to decently hear it when going down the highway.

When I drive it, I set off car alarms every day in the parking lot at school. Last week, I drove in and within 30 sec, I had set off two car alarms because of the loudness vibrates the ground and/or cars and triggers the shock sensor...just beeps a few times, not a full alarm.

If you live in a residential area, your neighbors will hate you, especially if drive the car during normal sleeping hours.

Basically, sounds cool and is fun for a little bit, but I'm anxious to get my tailpipes put back on.

To each his own though

yeah i put dumps on my stang and i hated them, and it sounded like crap. (stock engine save for fms headers and pullies). I bought tails within a week.
