Never seen downey "race" headers

Sorry, but it will sound like 2 cats fighting in a garbage can. And I thought these were only like $20 new

I used to run the shorty cherry Bombs on my turbo, wasn't bad sounding at all not too loud either unless I took the cat off.

maybe it isn't cherry bomb, but you can get a glasspack in a bin at the local o'rielys for $30... cheaper if it is on sale

88monster · « **Reply #6 on:** Jul 21, 2011, 12:55:13 PM »

yeah i ran the cheap ones on my other truck and they brake easy the cherry bombs have a little more sturdiness in them but i am gonna put something around them so if i do land on something it doesn't break the muffler

Loud doesn't equate to fast.

People who set out to annoy other people usually succeed.

I love to hear cherry bombs and 12" subs when I'm on the trail.

No, not really.

Tofudude · « **Reply #16 on:** Jul 21, 2011, 05:55:02 PM »

its like when you press the horn (if you still have the stock horn) it just doesn't match the truck once you start slapping on bigger tires

Well put

I like a nice tone and some volume to my trucks and bikes, but I don't for the life of me see the point in purposely making it obnoxiously loud. It's the same as the moronic sportbikers who sit at stop signs or lights revving their bikes, making us all look like tools.

Besides, loud doesn't necessarily set off alarms. My old exhaust had a very deep, low tone around idle and would often set off alarms while idling through parking lots.

To each his own, but you seem like an attention sleeper

woowwww, like attention much?

88monster · « **Reply #19 on:** Jul 21, 2011, 09:16:30 PM »

i don't prefer attention, attention prefers me and i have a custom box that holds the 2 12s and the 2 8s then i have one set of 6x9s in the door and the other in the stock place i don't have a horn because if i need the horn your driving like a grandma. And like i said this truck is a light to medium trail rig that's why i have the stereo and glass-packs. Even though i have the locker in the rear and the MC twin stick it will mainly be an everyday driver i worked hard to earn the money so i deserve the right to build my truck the way i want. Everybody has their own opinions and

this is rice killer to those that like true volume and tone to your cars

I have a glasspack on a 85' 22re, with no catalic converter, just glassback and no muffler. It is really not that loud at all, and I think it sounds tons better, and seems fine

88monster · « **Reply #23 on:** Jul 22, 2011, 10:56:11 AM »

i am running two race headers into one glasspack 4'' it should be somewhat loud i also have a 3.0l v6

REG535 · « **Reply #24 on:** Jul 24, 2011, 11:26:22 AM »

Sounds good. You have a pic of the engine bay with those two headers?

2 Race headers sick

howyadoin · « **Reply #26 on:** Jul 24, 2011, 11:58:15 AM »

[looking around nervously]...Did I just step into the 80's???

Please don't forget the curb feelers and visor....chrome shocks also make everyone realize how truly cool you are in your "race" 3.slow.

RockRescue · « **Reply #27 on:** Jul 24, 2011, 12:46:20 PM »

with the 2 race headers you should run some twice pipes to really open that v6 up

kneedownnate · « **Reply #28 on:** Jul 24, 2011, 03:32:46 PM »

Race headers - this is still puzzling me. I've known of Downey since the early 90s and have never seen them offer a separate street or race header

I've purchased a few glasspacks from kragen's that were branded as cherry bomb, and I don't recall paying more than $24 for each

88monster · « **Reply #29 on:** Jul 24, 2011, 04:18:36 PM »

when i reinstall the headers and glass packs ill take pics and i went to cherrybombs website and they sell new any where from 40-100 depending on type and size mine was 80 new and i think i will run two separate mufflers and cats not for sure yet i bought headers from downey for my 22re and they had street or race both cal legal i bought the race headers theres a guy in fresno that i know that has a set for the v6 3.0l that say downey race header on the box and paperwork
