Re: muff or no muff.... (accuair perv)
One more thing to think about in regards to the "muff" or "no muff" question.....
It just isn't the noise.... but the mufflers will also keep dirt, debris, and unwanted insects and such out of the manifold in the exhaust port.

Re: muff or no muff.... (accuair perv)
I would really like to see them compared too! I'm not sure if I want the mufflers, I like the sound, but it is REALLY loud, especially inside a garage or shop.

Re: muff or no muff.... (accuair perv)
It makes a difference. I personally hate the sound of the air rushing out of the manifold. I like my mufflers. Also like porter built said, it keeps crap out of your system.

Re: muff or no muff.... (accuair perv)
I would do it with mine but I can barely reach up under my bed to feel where the manifold is. I cant get my hand up there to pull the mufflers off without putting the truck up on a hoist. It doesnt really make that much difference, but it takes it from REALLY LOUD to just loud if that makes sense.

Re: muff or no muff.... (accuair perv)
Hey guys, got mufflers in and remembered this thread from a while back. Here's a video I made when installing them.

Re: muff or no muff.... (accuair perv)
I would have a hard time getting a pic, as mine are tucked away. They push into the exhaust fittings on the side of the valve block, and stick out about 2 1/2" each side.
