My 4" turbo back exhaust is terribly loud. It was suggested in a different post that I switch to the Hushpower muffler. Haven't done it yet because I'm still weighing my options.

I'm considering using two mufflers in series. It's the same cost to me either way since I have to purchase a new muffler regardless. Not entirely sure about the impact on EGT. I use my truck as transportation 99.5% of the time.

If quiet is key TTS or Corsa... in my opinion

I think any diesel with a muffler is pretty quite unless your standing on it and still there isn't much noise.

Maybe an LB7 is kinda loud with a muffler. But, I have been in many duramaxes, powerstrokes, and cummins. Weather they were my own, works, or a buddies. There isn't really much sound till you go strait pipe. To me anyways. Just my .02. Qwktrip-two mufflers??? Why don't you just leave it stock? Other wise i'll sell ya my muffler from my corsa set up if you want a nice sounding muffled system.

Get a 4" downpipe back dual system it's not loud until you punch it. The reason an LB7 is louder is that it does not have a VGT, which suppresses the sound more.

Corsa or TTS Power Systems. I have Corsa full exhaust, sounds stock w / windows up. More turbo whistle from exhaust at idle and under light throttle w /windows down... :)

Qwktrip-two mufflers???

:D Well.... there seems to be plenty of room.

The truck had this exhaust system when I bought it. I don't have the factory exhaust and I don't want to go back to it either. I'd like to keep all the attributes that go with the larger exhaust except the noise. I'm guessing that the 2nd muffler would quiet things down substantially and otherwise go unnoticed?

It's a concept anyway... still not sure what I'll do. I'm an engineer so you know I have to think about it for 2+ years before I do anything.
