VIDEO --- MERC TRUCK gets new PORTER MUFFLERS
I dropped the Merc Truck off at the Austin Speed Shop the other day...
one of the things I had them do was order and install some new Porter Mufflers for me. It came back sounding like an entirely different truck. I think it sounds great; but I'm a bit biased... So I made a quick video so you can each judge for yourself. http://www.portermufflers.com/ http://www.austinspeedshop.com/

When you rev it, it sounds like a jungle wild cat ready to attack, I think it sounds cool.

Re: VIDEO --- MERC TRUCK gets new PORTER MUFFLERS
Sounds good. How do I get my car loud? I have a cherry bomb on it, but the only thing loud about it is the exhaust leak. Is that hindering it? Single exhaust hurting it?

I've been really happy with Porters. They are well built and have a great sound. Nothing else like them!!

Re: VIDEO --- MERC TRUCK gets new PORTER MUFFLERS
Hey Thanks everyone... for all the compliments on the truck. I always felt the sound the Merc Truck had was raw and dirty... much more noisy; but I had gotten so used to it. Now, the sound really brings it all home for me.
I have had them on for a few weeks and have been really pleased with them... I can't get over how great these things really are. If you are considering an exhaust for your ride... I highly recomend them. Clark (Porter Man), Thank you man. These things are sweet. You nailed it. You are a RULER.
