I'm interested in Mike's exhaust tips. I've read a number of post about how the tips change the sound of the trucks. I'm just curious, does anyone have a before and after installation sound clip of Mike's tips? If so, would you please post it?

Thanks, wizzr.

Don’t have access to my clip at the moment, but I’ll say this... IMO: The OEM tips have a crisp sound, a bit of a crackle. The 4” magnaflow tips (that I had on for about a day) sounded deeper. Mike’s have an even deeper sound and with the magnaflow muffler, it burbles off throttle. As you step up in diameter, you get a bit more bass. They fill the rear facisa very nicely and look like they should have been there from the start.

I have mine so the tips are just inside the outer conture of the rear facia. I love them.

If nobody posts a clip by the weekend, I’ll put mine up. I should have roughly side by side comparisons, just gotta dig around on the server.

The exhaust shop mgr, summed up the look and sound in two words: "that's sick!" I agree.

Plus, the looks alone are worth the installation. As I was returning to my R in a parking lot, I heard one teen say to his friend " Holy s##t, did you see the exhaust on that beast?".

Maybe please explain what you don't like about them. I have them and love them as most others do. Confused!!!

in this case, sick = bad ass

Never heard that term used before. Guess I am getting so old I need an interpreter. Kind of like "COOL" and "HOT" means the same thing. Depends who you are talking to and there age. Ha! Ha! Thanks.

Grandkids keep me up to date on the latest slang. I'd be in trouble without them.

Augie... go hang out at the biker rallye there in Sturgis. You'll hear all kinds of "new" terms. LOL!

I don't have a sound clip but I a side by side image from when I did mine. I can tell you that the sound is deeper and louder though.

hmmmm....sounds pretty interesting...just have my hands full right now....

 

[poppa]

Same concept as using a Megaphone....Big cone = LOUDER sound

[wizzr]

Yes, TXNSSR. Please keep trying. I'd love to hear those clips.

 

[xoxoxoBruce]

The forum does not accept MOV files.

 

[wizzr]

Guess we're dead in the water on this one. Oh well. I do, however, appreciate everyone's feedback. Thanks.

I don't think just changing exhaust tips makes much difference sound or performance wise. They are maybe a tad bit deeper/louder but you gotta like the looks. Awesome. I believe sound changes up closer to the motor with splitting the Y pipe and performance mufflers or no mufflers. That is my story and I am sticking to it.

I’ll agree that is ‘a tad deeper/louder’. You’d have to hear the clips back to back or be really in tune with your R to hear the difference. Surprise!?!, I do hear the difference. From the looks, they are Simply awesome. They fit and belong.

Regarding performance, total agreement. It all comes before the tips. Would you like some whine with that? Yes, please!

My system has been re-done from engine to and including Mikes Tips. No whine here just good sound and throw you back in the seat power. Works for me.
