My Roush had a terrible drone.
No Resonator, small Roush muffler etc... I added a 2.5 inch 26 inch long Helmholtz (J pipe) before muffler.
Cost $25, totally killed the drone at 1900-2000 rpm

Reviving this thread a little bit. My stock exhaust is in desperate need of a replacement. Anyone have any feedback or reviews on the 24” set up that’s a little more specific to what I’m about to say?

My big thing is that I don’t want the truck much louder than it is currently for what I use it for (hunting), but I also want something a little less restrictive overall. Basically, I don’t want to cruise up a canyon and let everyone know I’m coming or wake up everyone within 10 miles when I get up in camp in the morning. I also wasn’t initially a huge fan of the exit before the tire, but it’s grown on me. Any help is appreciated!

I have the 16 on my truck super pleased with it. Has some bark at low idle and mellow on the highway.

The stock exhaust is not a restriction. Aftermarket exhausts are for noise on these, performance gain is immeasurable on an otherwise stock truck. I am not saying there is no value in exhaust, I have Corsa on mine, love it... but it isn't a performance enhancement so don't buy into the sales hype.

If you really want it quiet on the outside post a want to buy for another stock exhaust, I am sure there are some like new ones squirreled away in peoples sheds.

I had a 16" originally. Great sound, but just a little too loud for me while driving long distance wirh family. I changed to a 20" and could not be happier. I have had it for 4 or 5 years now, no issues. I have retired my truck from family duties, and I am now looking to get a 12". They are really easy to change, so I will prob keep the 20" and switch back if a need comes up. 6d987617818e635e83a024713cbea0c9.jpg996c1040d9776b13b0160a4ba93732ef.jpg

I agree with you 100% when talking about horsepower. I just thought it was worth mentioning that I had hangers on the over the axel exhaust break, fall on the axel, and crack the break line. I've seen it twice, on my Gen 1 and on a Gen 2. So not going up and over the axel is a "performance" enhancement, just not in the way most people think.
