Straight pipe???

Is anyone running a muffler delete pipe on here? I was looking at them because a full system isnt really in my budget right now and I would like some sound but I really dont want it too be insanley loud all the time. I ran a straight pipe on my 7.3 and it was awsome but i just was wondering what it would be like on the 6.0... Mine is an 05 and so far stock everything.

My neighbors hated me before I did it, it sounds sexy as hell, especially at 3 am.

I love my 7.3 straight piped! From what I understand, I think the 6.0 may even be a little louder but everyone I know with a powerstroke has the 7.3. Somebody that knows for sure will chime in.

The 6.0 straight piped isn't much louder EXCEPT you can hear the sweet sound of your turbo MUCH LOUDER! It rocks, do it and save money. Whack the Cat off while your at it.
