The ram's horns exhaust manifolds are still on, but I am thinking about putting on some straight down shorty headers.
Without mufflers, will I be able to hear myself think in there?

it looks like 4 glass pack mufflers on the end.its better than the factory system. without the tire carrier you could get rid of that bottle neck. side pipes are good too

I don't believe shorty headers will give any better performance than ramhorns. As for mufflers, looks to me you have twin glass packs.

How does it sound now? I don't think some block-hugger shorty headers will affect the sound all that much.
Keep the shiny side up!

Actually the car sounds great right now. I just don't want to make changes that will make it too loud or cause a droning inside.

Have mcjacks shorty headers instead of ramhorns and they definitely make more power and made the duals on the car louder than the ramhorns!
