This is just a guess, but here's prolly what it'd sound like... go eat a lot of garlic, onions, or whatever else causes gas and wait about an hour. When you feel the gas rumbling in your stomach, let it rip...that's probably what it'd sound like. I can't imagine straight pipes sounding good on a V6...whether it be a 175 HP 3.9L or a 210 HP 3.7L...

A few 3.7 owners I know went to the dynomax 17748
and loved the resaults, little louder than stock

Also they changed out the throttle body for the
4.7 body and had very good resaults the 3.7 reacts
just like the 3.9 to these mods

Cold air also helps on the 3.7

Straight pipe would sound like a ricer and loud

I have the 17748 on my 3.7 and love it.
Do you have a resource for cheap 4.7L and is it a true bolt on?

I will assume the 3.7 will sound better than a 3.9 due to the power increase, so the Dynomax should be slightly louder than stock or you could go real loud and get the Flowmaster 40. Keep the stock pipes, they should flow nicely with an aftermarket muffler.

There are only 2 ways to get a 4.7 body

If lucky find one in a bone yard

New from chrysler

Yes a true bolt on replacement, The only diff is
the size of the bore you can see that its stamped
right on the body casting
