3" Beudesert exhaust on 99 GU 4.2 TD

Post by Wilko76 »

Hi All

Got my exhaust fitted today and tuned. Can't believe the power. hitt hills where i normally have to drop down to third now it powers up in 4th. It is like a different truck.

Only problem......my missus. she goes "it's loud! i got the straight through system with no muffler. I had the choice to get muffler or no muffler. I chose no muffler.

If she doesn't get used to the noise, how muckh quieter will the muffler make it?

Grow some stones and tell the missus STFU.

Your truck, not hers ...
