Topic: my ava got cherry bombed!

[Chris]

well not the bomb you may be thinking of, but the exhaust manufacter known as cherry bomb. got a glass pak installed today, sounds awesome, nice deep tone and just sounds great all around. after i had that put on i went by a valvoline and had the transmission flushed ( completely burnt fuild, sorry to let it go that far) and fuel system cleaner, man was that dirty, you should have smelled the stuff coming out of there. but cleaner truck with a nice sound when i pass people in fords.

SOUNDS like you had some fun today!  Just to ask a little off topic here,,,,what kind of fuel system clean did they do?

[Chris]

I am not sure, it was a three step thing, stuff in the tank and then a drip hooked up on the fuel manifold and the throttle bottle cleaned. i think it worked pretty good with all the stuff that came out of the tail pipe, smelled nasty too. but i think it does run better now.

and video/sound clips!!!
I will be doing a muffler when taxes come in and iv been looking at different routes...  Im pointing towards the SilverBudman way! LOL his AV sounds like a damn muscle car!!! hehe
I beleave he went with the cherry bomb , but not the glass pack. Think it was the turbo muffler Cherry bomb.

i want just the straight through design with the classic red paint job. its not as loud as most things but it is a suprise when i get on it, which happens alot. i might post some video/sound of it whenever the snow is gone or stops, which ever i feel like doing.

I installed the Cherry bomb Cat back system. 3" mandrel bent pipe, a small glass pack resonator and then the newly designed Cherry bomb muffler out to a single stainless steel tip.
At low speed there is a point where there is a slight resonance, but it is not bad or an rpm that I cruise at. The tone is nice and deeper. Very good at highway speeds. Not loud by any means, but has a bit of a bark when you step into it. I don't need "Hotrod" loud on my truck. I have a supercharged HenryJ that takes care of that for me. I do like to hear a nice mellow deep tone and this has that. It may be on the quiet side as my wife can not hear me roll in compared to my last truck with a delta flow muffler.

I will admit that the inspiration to try this came from Stacey David and Gearz TV the Clunker episode. Following that episode they modified an Avalanche. I like the design of the muffler and thought I'd give it a try.

The price is definitely attractive. Under $300 it easily competes with a custom built system locally.

Great choice! I went with the vortex catback. I didn't want the extra volume of a glasspack system. But, if it sounds good to you, that's all that matters! I'm very glad to see another Top Gear fan around here! Go Jezza, Hamster, and Captain Slow!!!
