Raspy Or Deep Exhaust Sound? Whats the Difference?

[@louvendran7273]

The youngster with the Mustang. In 20 years time, he will say, "My hearing got messed up because of the damn exhaust." 😂

[@kyletrummel69]

I once drove a straight-piped pickup for three weeks. The muffler rotted off, and it had no catalytic converters. So it basically dumped after the collector. The first week was awesome. The second and third were not. I quickly started keeping earmuffs in the cab, and I ordered a new muffler. Now it has a Super 10, so it's still noisy, but at least it isn't obnoxious, overbearing, or deafening.

[@commbubba1990]

nah, it'll end up in a tree in less than 6 months

[@jerodwolford2743]

​@kyletrummel7074 I daily drive a straight piped truck lol. It has a 3 inch system the whole way out the back so it's not loud at all in the cab unless you have the windows down. It claps and kinda sounds like shit though so I'm eventually getting a muffler for it.

[@camyota]

The only way you could ever get the exhaust loud enough inside the vehicle (even with the windows down) to damage your hearing would be to run the pipes right inside. I've had the loudest exhaust possible on mine and it was still quiet inside, it was absolutely obnoxious on the outside so I went back to something more subtle but good sounding)

[@kyletrummel69]

@@camyota the volume affects you deeper than just your ears. Regular exposure to loud noises is bad for your cardiovascular system. I already work in a noisy shop, so I don't need the "loudest exhaust system" on my daily driver.

[@jkl_916]

The deep exhaust sounds for me 👍

[@GeorgiKolevPetrov]

same here, mate. Raspy is not bad, but sounds rather uncontrollable and loud ... deep exhaust is rather tighter but still has the sound of its strength. Also rather better for a daily car and traveling :)

[@awaisiqbal8934]

​@@GeorgiKolevPetrovAgreed that is why I had added a baffled resonator before free flow exhaust to lessen its loudness and give deep notes

[@Christopher26021994]

I've been always a fan of VERY deep sounding exhausts. To the point I take deep sound over volume. They always sound good, at any RPMs, as long as there are no issues like leaks or other problems of such kind. That's why I'm a big fan of resonated Magnaflow-based cat back setups, can be in a stock diameter, maybe stepped up by 0,25 inch at its best (in axle-back or whole part), especially paired with an H pipe in case of V6 and V8 engines, and stock manifolds with stock cats still on, finished with some turndowns or slant cut dual-wall big bore tips. In my opinion this is a foolproof way of making any car sound really good. Surprisingly it is not that common from what I observe, but maybe I'm just looking wrong, or maybe it drones too much for many people.

[@Jay-vh4dn]

an exhaust shop with a decible reader is so funny 🤣🤣

[@elikerr785]

That S4 v8 w/6 speed is sweet! Both setups sounded good but I'd prob go with the black widows.

[@thunderch1ck3en]

Same. The straight pipe sounded beautiful from the side profile outside the car. Behind it though, a little too much tin sound.

[@lovethewicked1367]

I literally watched the video just because I'm thinking of doing my s6 exhaust. Although both sound good the straight pipe seems just a tad too loud for my daily lol.

[@sesizare2085]

Hello man, i see you made this video few years ago but maybe since then you find out new things. I have a Opel Zafira B 2008 1.9 diesel and i want to change just a little the sound that muffler exaust makes from manufactory. Add a little bass to it. Not something loud because is not racing car but i drive it like one😊. I want just by adding a tips in the end of my pipe witch i have to take it out each year when i go to teating for emissions. Here you are not allowd to bring any changes to the car otherways you dont get accept to drive it. Maybe you can teach me something or someone that read this. Thank you

[@noahmonte8581]

Just get a axleback mufflers, you can easily switch them out to the stock ones when they do testing

[@muaythai193]

Best would be to throw glasspacks on the no crossover straight pipe one, to mellow the sound while staying loud. Other than that it‘s perfect!

[@riccardopetrina4212]

Only Inline 4 engines or Rotary sound good when raspy, because they also have some depth in the sound. A V8 is a rumbly sound with some "tra tra tra tra" at idle and at high rpm it still has that bass along the higher pitched sounds

[@jeremypike9153]

Have you done any of the borla switch-fire setups?

[@patx35]

You guys should've tested raspy mufflers, such as chambered mufflers. It would sound a lot better than straight piping.

[@kevinhawley962]

fyi if those audi muffles are in good condition they go for about 150 a piece used

[@Mrwinecontreras]

I’m a big exhaust guy love it , now for some reason every time I straight pipe or put a one chamber muffler in any of my car is fun the first week , after second week it’s star annoying me , like to daily drive a car with loud muffler it’s not a good idea , now if it’s your weekend car go for it !!

[@rickyhawkins7407]

Deep wins it. It has sound and tone. The raspy just sounds loud.

[@menamesframerate9136]

Loud doesnt equal good

[@johnc.6976]

What kind of car inspections does your area have? A few places here in NC have failed me (or me having to pay them more to pass me) because of my "loud" exhaust. Crazy thing is, all the cars on here sound way louder than my 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX. I have a high flow cat on my downpipe, a resonated mid pipe and muffler. The last shop to fail me said that they "couldn't pass my car because they can't see the catalytic converter." I do have aftermarket headers too that did make it sound more raspy. But still, so much trouble for me to find a place to get inspected 🤦‍♂️

[@grgfourtinas]

So what are the must haves for a deep exhaust?

[@maximusoptimusTECH]

I have an Audi S5 6 speed, which also has the 4.2 V8, let my shop work on the stock center silencer (which is kind of an hpipe resonator combo) and put some louder mufflers on. Gets the nice deep sound and still is daily drivable for longer journeys haha, looking into some valved mufflers next though.

[@bmacster1985]

Amevery vehicle I have owned in the last 15 years has gotten pypes mufflers. I’ve tried most and they sound the best, just my opinion

[@ej1025]

Both, deep idle cruise, and raspy WOT

[@rhaegoti]

Looking for advice: Just bought a used Magnum SRT8 with the 6.1 hemi. Has stock exhaust, which is really quiet. I love the S-Type Borla, but the only exhaust system they sell for the Magnum is with the ATAK. ATAK sounds amazing at idle and normal drive, but I don't like the crackle/pop when really putting the pedal down. Should I get used to it (I don't drive WOT often, after all), look for another brand, piece together something out of shelf parts?

[@Flat_3_6]

just a heads up, ive had a lot of wagons and they all drone more than a sedan or coupe would with the same exhaust. i had cherrybomb 32 inch glasspack mid mounted with dynomax bullets at the rear and it droned but wasn't even that loud. i swapped the cherrybomb for a blackwidow neighbor hater and it reduced the drone by a lot, it was there but nothing crazy ( this was a dual exit setup and i think it contributed to the drone). now i just have the blackwidow in a single exit set up and its very loud but drone is almost non existent. granted this is on a subaru outback with a flat 6 so it may vary a bit with your magnum but wagons just have a tendency to drone no matter what. my suggestion would be custom exhaust with neighbor haters on each side/exit and then j pipes to kill any potential drone.

[@rhaegoti]

@@Flat_3_6 Thanks! I didn't think much about the body style having a large effect on the interior noise/drone. Most of the talk is about the sound on the outside. Shame that it isn't easy to compare before making a choice with a lot of money behind it!

[@Wheezall]

I want to do a muffler delete, but the law in PA says you must have a sound dampening device. Does a resonator count as a soud dampening device?

[@occuluzofficial6124]

Don’t see a reply so figured I’d give you an answer. Yes a resonator is considered a sound dampening device but you can also do a valve cutout muffler which also helps drone when driving long distance. Resonator typically is designed to resonate with the undesirable frequencies canceling them out thus lowering the overall loudness. P.s. I drive a 2018 Hyundai elantra with a dual cat and glass pack. Needless to say it sounds mean.

[@howiewestra9382]

3 inch and h pipe keeps it deep sounding. X pipe makes it raspy...coyotes are high rev engines so hard to get perfect but I prefer the h pipe setup.

[@MBManiac]

Have you guys ever used a wicked flow kamikaze muffler? I’ve seen them online other videos, would be great if you installed them on a common platform on your channel like a Mustang, so it may be compared. Thanks for your consideration and big fan of the channel! 😊

You remove the resonator and add a bigger muffler 👍

[@0to60_]

[@squareeyes1117]

Raspy is only ever done right with a good resonator to get rid of the wet fart noise.

[@ryanpooler3962]

FYI, that borla "baby resonator" on the Stinger is actually harmonically tuned piece specific for the stinger engine note. It doesn't attenuate or propagate the exhaust volume but rather sonically tunes like a pipe organ and harmonizes the exhaust notes. The science and theory is quite sound behind the concept, but how it translates to the real world... not sure. Would be cool to cut one out to see how much that one piece changes the tone. Keep that in mind for a future video. 👍

Why do most coyotes sound so bad? I have yet to hear a coyote that sounds better with an aftermarket exhaust. They always sound horrible.

The coyote is one of the worst sounding engines from any manufacturer. I’d honestly rather listen to a clapped out civic with a fart can.

X pipe is raspy and high pitched, divorced duals (the "raspy," at least for the first mustang in this vid) is more like deep and farty. All the squat truck bros run divorced duals to make their trucks "clap" more. Sounds like crap every time, especially with 5" or bigger rolled edge tips that make it clap, snap, and fart even MORE. Then they have to gall to say 4-cyl with a glass pack in the middle and resonated tip sounds bad? Fk outta here.

[@Drunken_Hamster]

Yeah, I think a better practice is to say what kind of crossover and muffling the car has and let us decide whether it's raspy, smooth, deep, high pitched, exotic, or w/e. Also True X vs stamped X makes a difference, and so does single vs double X. There's also a difference between a small diameter (smaller than the rest) and large diameter (same as the rest) H, and I think there's a difference between a narrow/close mount H and a wide mount H, but I haven't been able to confirm the latter. Not so sure a single vs double H does a whole bunch, either. And of course, divorced duals will always sound like they do there isn't really any variance besides, I supposed, being too big/too small a diameter.
