2.3 with cherry bomb 18'' glass packs?
what does everyone think about taking my stock muffler and pipe behind off and replacing with a cherry bomb glass pack 18"?
what would it sound like?

I dont personnaly like the way the Cherry Bomb/Glass pack style mufflers sound. I prefer the sound of FlowMaster 40 series (Or like) mufflers. Be cautious not to take away ALL your back pressure.

If your pipes are 2" OD (outer diameter), you will need a muffler that is 2" ID (inner diameter). If you use 2 1/4 there will be a considerable amount of open space to close up with your clamps - it will probably leak.

yes, the system should go together opposite the direction of flow - i.e., the exhaust should have to do a 180* turn to leak....

Blue bottles are also a low rumble sounding glasspack. But they are hard to find anywhere outside of Canada. GO CANADIA.

Glasspack mufflers add a huge amount of backpressure! I would avoid them at all cost. A Dynomax race bullet, or a Pypes M-80.
