Yeah lol that happened when my dad and I tried putting a cat back on his 2500 ram. We couldn’t get one last pipe off so we took it to a muffler shop. God the smell was atrocious
THANK you, everyone calls this shit straightpiping when you are literally just dumping exhaust fumes out the bottom of your car, it will ALWAYS sound like shit.
Upside-down Triangle Thingy hell yeah man see I just barely got a fusion 2006 I was curious of how it sounds like lol wut bout like some glass packs or flow masters would that sound awsome like that as well
Justin Hartway No matter what you do, it's always going to sound kind of like an lawnmower, because it's a 4 cylinder. But a full exhaust (headers too) with resonators always sounds pretty cool, even if it isn't a V8.
@@llll-lz5dv what are you saying? If you're asking how much it costs, you can do it yourself by just taking off a few bolts to drop it but you would want to actually add piping which shouldn't be terribly expensive
PH03NIX 7827 lolol yessss. I live in downtown austin and I see at least 5 work trucks/slammed 00's trucks every day with awful straight pipe jobs. Just rumbly and farty sounding lol
Oneshotup agreed. My mom has an 06 300c srt8 and I hate it so much. The first time her and my stepdad rode in my wrx they truly questioned their loyalty to Chrysler
Hey man sry to be a drag but iv been in e really low spot in my life and honestly watching your blog has helped me get over anxiety and PTSD I just wanted to thank you for what you do! Obviously it was not geared towards people like myself but I am so thankful for you!!
3/4/18, I don't understand this guy, he does weird shit: special wheels/parts on his AMG, slams cars in reverse, quiet exhaust for noisy one. He actually gets paid 4this? Nice work if you get it, yeah?
There is nothing like hearing your car for the first time, after that first exhaust mod. It’s always enjoyable, and entertaining.....even when it comes out sounding like shit. That being said....it doesn’t sound bad. On the outside. I had a Ford Edge Sport with the 3.7L and straight piped it...it sounded like ass on the inside, too. The outside sounded pretty nice. Must be a Ford thing. 🤷🏾♂️
Adam Gronemeier theres a reason mustangs can be bought all the way up to the gt350 (soon a 550) theyre simply designed to be bought as the are used. and i love mustangs but ford changes so much so often, they make it intentionally difficult to mod.
I have a 2015 Ford Fusion and I've heard they have aluminum hoods. So I'm wondering if that is true. Not only that, but I have a good size dent and swatch of paint missing in the rear quarter panel and it's not rusting. Do you know how much of the car is aluminum or how I can find out?
The fact you can hear that turbo spool is awesome. I'd straight pipe one of those. Obviously, not just lop off the manifold. Maybe with some resonators, would sound excellent.
This was so entertaining, I am amazed at how quiet it becomes when the system is in place haha. It wasn't as terrible as I expected, but that vibration would be annoying!
That buzzing was extremely funny XDDD. Maybe she is not the best sounding car (stock or not) but definitely the funniest in your channel. Świetny film/ Great movie ;)
The reason it sounds so gnarly on the inside and vibrates is because you probably didn't put any piping in place of the old system? If exhaust exits under the car , especially near the driver without a turndown, it will cause all sorts of resonance inside the cabin and may even cause a semi-boner at certain rpm.
Does it make a difference in sound removing the piping and leaving it like that vs removing the piping and actually adding a 2.5” straight pipe? Because I’ve removed my muffler before on my 2016 Hyundai Veloster and it sounds pretty good, but I’m planning on doing an actual muffler delete and want to know if it actually makes a difference in sound
Mike, I enjoyed this video. I actually didn't mind the sound of the car from outside or inside. 😂😂😂 Although, if I owned a Ford Fusion like urs, n i straight piped mine, i would never drive at night, cuz I'd wake up the whole neighborhood. 😳😳😳
That is funny as hell!!! And I enjoyed the video That said, where I come from "straight piped" is removing everything from the down pipe back and replacing it with a long, hollow "straight" pipe so the sound still comes out the back. What you have done is more like "headers only", where you disconnect everything from the headers back. Not sure if you removed the catalytic converter (i think you did but called it the "small front exhaust, but i might be wrong).
I'm assuming you took off everything from the end of the downpipe back? It doesn't sound too much different than my 2013 2.0EB with a muffler delete. The drone was horrible the first few thousand miles, but the car has gotten used to the vibrations put out by the exhaust. It's still drone-y though.
Have you had any issues with accidentally switching gears (from drive to neutral/reverse) while driving? Or activating the parking brake on while driving?
Hey! Do you ever make it to Pittsburgh cars and coffee? I go every week. I’ve been a big fan of your for a while and would like to say hi, man! Super great videos.
Come on man, I was starting to enjoy this video until dude had to bring up Hondas in a negative connotation. That's why guys like me cant get any respect from the car community because of people like that and all of those 16 and 17 year old asswipes with a stock single cam Civic with a muffler and dryer hose intake that want to race everyone. I have a 508 whp Civic that I built myself and it's gotten to the point where I dont even want to tell people about it because of all of those children that think their cars are the shit when they're just stock piles of garbage. I HATE bodykits and refuse to have one on my car.
Boosted B Series EK bro it's a stipulation that comes with owning a car from that brand, just like a stereo type. Clearly your setup doesn't fit typical Honda stereo types but regardless that doesn't change the fact (as you said yourself) it's the ricers that give Honda a bad name..all Honda's
I have a mustang. I don't take it personally when I see the connotation of a reckless driver that can't control their car. If you really have a civic with the hp you claimed, that you also built yourself- then you should not relate to the ricer remarks.
Reminds me of when my 2005 Ford Escape 2.3 had a broken flex pipe. People kept asking me when I would fix it, but I kept stalling because I actually liked the sound. It didn't go as loud as this Fusion though 😆
Mike I have an Ford Fiesta 2017, I'm in love with those Fusions, but the one that I can have a deal on terms of price on my country is a Fusion 2014 (awd too), what you guys think? sounds a good deal?
What gets me is this as evidenced by a prop shaft is either rwd or awd, why can’t uk customers get that? Would love a rwd ford that isnt just the mustang over here, something like the Sierra cosworth used to be
**Popping Advil**
Almost like my old truck at the end. A 4.3 V6 with a Flowmaster with a softball sized rust hole in the back and no tailpipe. Loud and droned for days.
I love my Fusion ecoboost because it is so quiet :D
Straight pipe the f-150!!!!
AutoVlog
From inside the vehicle sounds like your car was farting up a storm LMAO
Autovlog The Straight Pull don't sound Too bad from the but inside sounded terrible
Put that shit in manual mode and lets hear some pop and crackles
Kevin Buns frfr
Kevin Buns lol
Maybe its just me but......I dont think it sounds that bad
i actually like the bassiness
it doesnt the drone wouldnt be bad at all if it wasnt being dumped out just past his feet you wouldnt feel the vibrations either
Agreed
Lol yeah but its annoying
It is actually not too bad
Taking off the exhaust is not straight piping... lmao
Anthony Roman I was gonna say the same. U simply removed the exhaust.. if it had piped to the back it prolly would sound ok
Anthony Roman
Never heard or no pipe XD
lmao
Quite literally what it means...
Im rick harrison and this is my straight piped fusion
Steffin Mezger XD
Hi I’m Johnny Knoxville and this is my ricer xd
Noooooooo
Nah, cause best he can do is open headers
Got emmm
You got the “straight pipe” concept wrong
Ulises R exactly what I was thinking. Just removing the exhaust isn't "straight piped", its just open headers.
He just did a muffler and resonator delete
SupremeVodeine that would mean he replaced such with a straight pipe. He just removed the exhaust. He didn't straight pipe his Ford fusion
DIABETIX-DUDE14 not even he has cats
@N A i think he did an exhaust delete
4:15 Thank me later
Adam Čížek he does that for the stupid TH-cam algorithms.
Yeah I understand that..
Milion + :)
σσf
Thanks brah
Exhaust gases would be leaking into the cabin which is what caused his headache.
Yeah lol that happened when my dad and I tried putting a cat back on his 2500 ram. We couldn’t get one last pipe off so we took it to a muffler shop. God the smell was atrocious
4:41 cant believe no one said it yet
Thanks.
damn that doesnt sound bad
turbo sounds cool
that vibration would make a girl happy
His wife new daily
😹😹😹😹😹lmfaoooooo you’re a jackass
*Cough cough* vibrators *cough cough*
🤣
this isnt straight piped.. this is just taking off the exhaust
clint michels no, drastically different sounds
clint michels if you really think that you don't know anything about exhausts
Lol
Straight pipe and open Header are different yo.
As In nothing? True didn’t see them put in anything else when removed just downpipe to nothing and wonder why the vibration on seat LOL
If Ford ever makes a V8 EcoBoost, it should be called an EcoBeast
Mr. Profezzional it's a matter of time until they do that to the mustang
OH MY GOD THAT WOULD BE SO BAD ASS
Mr. Profezzional That’s an oxymoron as a V8 is not economic... so the name ecobeast on a V8 turbo or twin turbo just does not make sense.
Ecoboost v8? That's the dumbest shit ive heard today
I think that's the point. It'd be funny
Correct me if I'm wrong but straight piping is adding a pipe from engine manifold to the rear
J's Reviews! You’re correct, what he does was just exhaust
*_Buy a cheap car and modify it as much as you can for as cheaply as possible_*
Sir that is called Ebay Ricing
He should really do that!
avyn jordan Ricing a Crown Vic, sounds nice
rice
Then he would just be a run of the mill Ricer.
was 12 minutes really necessary
Gotta get that 10 min mark
Yes it was.
In short, I don’t really think it was
well u cant fumble the bag
Yes because why would you want less content
that doesn't sound awful!!! it sounds like a Mk.3 focus RS!
Oh come on😂😂😂
Tom’s a savage HAHAHA 😂
Mother owns a mk3 rs I’ve been begging her to get a new exhaust system because it sounds utter shit
Tom damn is tom 😂
It sounds pretty good. Remember it could have a CVT lol
Wouldn't it be better if you actually ran a straight pipe all the way to the back?
Oh this is a cat back? I didn't even watch the video, I just skipped to the noise. Yeah I get why it sounds so useless now
Video is called STRAIGHT PIPES in all caps and there are literally zero straight pipes put on the car. All you did was unbolt the exhaust.
THANK you, everyone calls this shit straightpiping when you are literally just dumping exhaust fumes out the bottom of your car, it will ALWAYS sound like shit.
Brutus 632 I have the same issue with people. They hack off a muffler and make a video called "Straight piped
ezatnova yeah fr, straight pipe is literally nothing from the headers back but pipe
Im saying
Brutus 632 no streetspeed is
sounds like a pissed off mosquito and I like it lol
Justin Hartway I love peppy supercharged 4 cylinders. Angry wasp, comin' thru!
Upside-down Triangle Thingy hell yeah man see I just barely got a fusion 2006 I was curious of how it sounds like lol wut bout like some glass packs or flow masters would that sound awsome like that as well
Justin Hartway No matter what you do, it's always going to sound kind of like an lawnmower, because it's a 4 cylinder. But a full exhaust (headers too) with resonators always sounds pretty cool, even if it isn't a V8.
That’s not straight piped it’s more like a open downpipe
Moe Malik there’s no headers on that, exhaust manifold, but that’s the resonator, there’s defiantly still cats on that.
Otto Bauch that’s still not straight pipe
It’s open down pipe! not open headers! not straight piped!
juanelio aguilera that sounds about right
That legit doesn't sound bad
Arc how it cost to do what he did to make sound like that
@@llll-lz5dv what are you saying? If you're asking how much it costs, you can do it yourself by just taking off a few bolts to drop it but you would want to actually add piping which shouldn't be terribly expensive
Yeah it really doesn’t
Arc I thought it was my inner ricer making me think that but thankfully I'm not alone. It sounds eh
I take this over all the straight piped hondas.
You should strait pipe a Tesla
It’s a joke don’t get triggered
If you straight pipe a tasla it will sound like a blender
Logan Shotwell too late!
Yeah. Because a Tesla is way louder than a Fusion Ti.
What exhaust pipe on a Tesla? A Tesla is an all electric car. No exhaust pipe.
Yeah, that's kinda the point.
Can We All Agree “ Straight Pipped “ Is No Mufflers , No Cats , And No Resonators ?
NicHitEmUp _ no Straight piping is cutting off the muffler but there’s two ways to do it do it the way he did it
You were getting a headache because of the exhaust gasses that were infiltrating through the floorboard .
SickStang615 💀💀 “infiltrating”
This sounds like the Houston lullaby. Straight piped christler 300s and chargers everywhere
0rang3z more like dropped trucks with Texas edition wheels. Loud asf and annoying
PH03NIX 7827 lolol yessss. I live in downtown austin and I see at least 5 work trucks/slammed 00's trucks every day with awful straight pipe jobs. Just rumbly and farty sounding lol
"Houston lullaby" omg that's hilarious
300s and Chargers....the generic pieces of shits for people who cannot afford a quality car.
Oneshotup agreed.
My mom has an 06 300c srt8 and I hate it so much. The first time her and my stepdad rode in my wrx they truly questioned their loyalty to Chrysler
Please straight pipe the C63!
"Bro did you see that escape I passed" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Eco-beast" 😂
scott kelly more like eco bust
dale jerkins LOL
12 minutes of:
Vroooom HEHEHEHEHEH vrooooom HEHEHEHEHEH vrooooom HEHEHEHEHEH 🙄
Fr 😂
There are no straight pipe Ecoboost Fusion sound videos for good reason.
emdec55 it's boosted tho
Hey man sry to be a drag but iv been in e really low spot in my life and honestly watching your blog has helped me get over anxiety and PTSD I just wanted to thank you for what you do! Obviously it was not geared towards people like myself but I am so thankful for you!!
“Cattle has nothing on this car that’s how stock it is” 😂😂
Lol you got me there! When I saw "rip headphone user" I turned the volume all the way down
Vehicle virgins 2.0
What’s next?
5 things I hate about my straight piped ford/ 5 things I hate about my straight piped Ford
AnonymousGamr next video, straight piping my friends work semitruck!
Lowering my fusion... *Only lowers it 2cm*
Growing up in the early 00s I remember everyone in highschool just straight piping anything and everything lmao.
It sounds like a ‘96 Honda Civic haha
I can totally confirm this cause I have one lmao
Glad I wasn't the only person that thought it sounded like a Civic
Yes exactly like my 96 civic dx after the exhaust fell off
yes
More like 83 honda. How dare you!
Lmao I daily this “straight pipe” setup on my Focus ST 😂.
I'm happy when I see Mike this happy. 😁
3/4/18, I don't understand this guy, he does weird shit: special wheels/parts on his AMG, slams cars in reverse, quiet exhaust for noisy one. He actually gets paid 4this? Nice work if you get it, yeah?
Hammad Ali lucky you im never happy. DEPRESSION
I like the sound actually
I like how it sounds rough while being relatively quiet
There is nothing like hearing your car for the first time, after that first exhaust mod. It’s always enjoyable, and entertaining.....even when it comes out sounding like shit.
That being said....it doesn’t sound bad. On the outside. I had a Ford Edge Sport with the 3.7L and straight piped it...it sounded like ass on the inside, too. The outside sounded pretty nice.
Must be a Ford thing. 🤷🏾♂️
LOL !
fords were not made to be modded, their ment to be used as sold
Jnathan Nger *cough* MUSTANGG *cough cough*
Adam Gronemeier theres a reason mustangs can be bought all the way up to the gt350 (soon a 550) theyre simply designed to be bought as the are used. and i love mustangs but ford changes so much so often, they make it intentionally difficult to mod.
Jnathan Nger so youre telling me youve actually seen a real enthusiast driving 100% factory mustang hmm? 🤔
I have a 2015 Ford Fusion and I've heard they have aluminum hoods. So I'm wondering if that is true. Not only that, but I have a good size dent and swatch of paint missing in the rear quarter panel and it's not rusting. Do you know how much of the car is aluminum or how I can find out?
Who needs Mercedes massaging seats when you can just straight pipe your car?
The fact you can hear that turbo spool is awesome. I'd straight pipe one of those. Obviously, not just lop off the manifold. Maybe with some resonators, would sound excellent.
@4:42 such a weed whacker 😂😂
Are you going to straight pipe c63s, that would sound crazy
Wasn’t really straight piped- that would mean taking the mufflers out and running a pipe from front to back with no mufflers
This was so entertaining, I am amazed at how quiet it becomes when the system is in place haha. It wasn't as terrible as I expected, but that vibration would be annoying!
And, you know, the exhaust gases entering the cab
When he said his ass was vibrating I freaking farted funniest shit ever
Lmfao 😂 I like that u can hear the turbo spool 😎
Great video mike maybe I’ll do this to mine just for fun lmfao
Jesse Rizo what turbo it’s a super charged not turbocharged
Flame get your facts right it’s a turbo look it up.... my uncle has one
I onw one it’s turbo...
Gino Barbieri thank you 👍
Flame its a turbo, my 2014 is the exact same, and its turbo
Does not sound bad. And to reduce drone make make pipes to the end
Actually doesn’t sound quite as bad as I’d guess.
4:58 "my ass is vibratin'" I liked the video at this moment XD
Now the F150 is next! Lol
bteauto go look at my TH-cam. 2013 f150 3.5 Ecobooost with a 3” straight pipe from the cats back if you want to know what it sounds like
"I can't wait to see what it sounds like" I'm more interested in hearing how it sounds. I don't hear with my eyes. Lmao.
I think you should straight pipe the Benz mike that would sound like a beast!! 😂😂
If the video is supposed to break my ears it ain’t working because my ears are still as functional as of to when the video started😂
Lol I won't straight pipe my 2013 Ford Fusion Titanium 2.0 😂😂
Absolutely hilarious, this man is an actual legend
That buzzing was extremely funny XDDD. Maybe she is not the best sounding car (stock or not) but definitely the funniest in your channel. Świetny film/ Great movie ;)
The reason it sounds so gnarly on the inside and vibrates is because you probably didn't put any piping in place of the old system? If exhaust exits under the car , especially near the driver without a turndown, it will cause all sorts of resonance inside the cabin and may even cause a semi-boner at certain rpm.
That honestly sounds alright just needs a 6 speed and maybe a proper pipe setup for the drone
RogueSp33d _ needs a engine swap those i4s sound like shit
It does have a 6 speed?
Straight piping requires removing the catalytic converters. Did you remove them?
That comment you made about your ass vibrating is hilarious
you can have a 'silenced decat' for the drone. but the vibration in the cockpit is what you'll have to put up with to get that extra torque.
Actually I think it sounds really good, but yeah, after some time you will got headache inside the car :)
Does it make a difference in sound removing the piping and leaving it like that vs removing the piping and actually adding a 2.5” straight pipe? Because I’ve removed my muffler before on my 2016 Hyundai Veloster and it sounds pretty good, but I’m planning on doing an actual muffler delete and want to know if it actually makes a difference in sound

What you have done is more like "headers only", where you disconnect everything from the headers back. Not sure if you removed the catalytic converter (i think you did but called it the "small front exhaust, but i might be wrong).
Idk what let’s more exhausted in the cabin, this thing or an explorer. 😂😂
I'm assuming you took off everything from the end of the downpipe back? It doesn't sound too much different than my 2013 2.0EB with a muffler delete. The drone was horrible the first few thousand miles, but the car has gotten used to the vibrations put out by the exhaust. It's still drone-y though.
Love it bahaha (not in the ass vibrating way) 😂😂😂
Thinking about straight piping my '08 Mercury Sable for laughs. Anything I should know before hand? Should I record it?
Sounds kind of like a GTI.
Madern not really lmfao
Because the GTI has a 2.0 4 cyl too
"dude, my ass is vibrating" LOL
I own a 2008 ford fusion with a 3 liter v6 and it sounds better not straight piped
Ay I have the 2012 3.0 v6 that IS straight piped and it sounds MUCH better than this one
Brandon Arrington ya those 3.0L v6’s do sound really nice but considering this is an ecoboost it obviously won’t sound the same as the older v6’s
Have you had any issues with accidentally switching gears (from drive to neutral/reverse) while driving? Or activating the parking brake on while driving?
Besides the drone it does sound quite cool actually. Never thought one of those could sound like that. Love the turbo whistle to
That sounds good surprisingly and that turbo spool is orgasmic haha
Thats not bad love the turbo spool
The vibration reminds me of a 3.8 V6 Mustang I was in back in 2016. It was a work-in-progress during the last time I was in it...
Sounds like shit lol but cool video
2:10 Ohh that Focus RS in the background 😍😍😍😍
Iv’e heard louder lawnmowers 👂🏻
Hey! Do you ever make it to Pittsburgh cars and coffee? I go every week. I’ve been a big fan of your for a while and would like to say hi, man! Super great videos.
I think it sounds AWSOME HAHA 😎
Lmao straight piping a car that is a lease? What..
Shoot! I forgot to turn off my blender.
LOL
😂
I love the laughs like he knows it’s a straight joke hahah
It sounds like a honda
Doesn't sound bad from the outside but I think I'd rather fight a hornet's nest inside a closet than commute in that.
sounds like any loud 4 cilinder like a golf gti, focus st,...
Gotta love a “car vlog” where nobody seems to understand the difference between straight pipes and open exhaust lol
Come on man, I was starting to enjoy this video until dude had to bring up Hondas in a negative connotation. That's why guys like me cant get any respect from the car community because of people like that and all of those 16 and 17 year old asswipes with a stock single cam Civic with a muffler and dryer hose intake that want to race everyone.

Shutup lil bitch
Genesis owners know the feeling too well
There isn't even anything wrong with a tasteful Honda body kit done right in my opinion..
Reminds me of when my 2005 Ford Escape 2.3 had a broken flex pipe. People kept asking me when I would fix it, but I kept stalling because I actually liked the sound. It didn't go as loud as this Fusion though 😆
You are crazy Mike ...
Mike I have an Ford Fiesta 2017, I'm in love with those Fusions, but the one that I can have a deal on terms of price on my country is a Fusion 2014 (awd too), what you guys think? sounds a good deal?
Ford mondeo it’s called in the uk
Same in greece...
Gabe Harper u silly little boy 🖕🏻
Gabe Harper true it looks like something named fusion , mondeo sounds dumb
Jack Dean actually it was designed In Sonora Mexico look it up
What gets me is this as evidenced by a prop shaft is either rwd or awd, why can’t uk customers get that? Would love a rwd ford that isnt just the mustang over here, something like the Sierra cosworth used to be
You always do crazy and weird stuff honestly i like keep it up 👌
Haha :D good one Mike!
Lol this guy is having the time of his life driving a straight piped family sedan
