Active DoD with headers/cutouts?

Post by Numbah1 »

Is anyone running DOD and headers, full exhaust, or cutouts?

Order of operations;
I work at night, so i need to keep it quieter. I want it to have the 4 horseman V8 sound at the track. I'd like to keep the DoD.

If its super drony i can lose the DoD.

Fwiw plenty of g8 guys run full exhaust with their stock mufflers. Reasonable at idle and gives up not a bunch of power up to 500hp or so. Might not be AS loud as an aftermarket muffler but certainly I would think would be quiet enough. Worst case, just slap a couple cutouts for that noise level wanted at track.

Good luck.

I have still got DOD and I have upgrade 2.5" exhaust with mid muffler replaced by X attached to stock manifolds and cutouts located by the pumpkin b4 stock mufflers. Its very close to stock when closed and interestingly loud open, I generally leave it only partially open around town and you get a small drone when v4 kicks in which isn't super often.
