<br /> It’s obnoxiously loud. If you’re out on the road with it and you’re doing stupid things, it’s going to get you in trouble, because it’ll certainly get some attention.
If there’s one cardinal rule of high performance, it’s that it simply must be heard. Not just heard, but really heard. Forget a nice, quaint , serene drive to the store. An entire industry of exhaust components are built around the premise of high performance exhaust that not only delivers improved power and torque to the tires, but gets attention in the process, and the new Metal Mulisha truck and UTV exhaust system from Gibson Performance Exhaust is designed to leave no head unturned as you pass by.

The new Metal Mulisha exhaust, slated for arrival on the market right around the first of the new year, is a cat-back exhaust system that carries the signature name of Freestyle Motocross star and X Games Gold Medalist Brian Deegan and his Metal Mulisha clothing line brand, for a complete arsenal of exhaust systems and exhaust tips.

This stainless steel, made in the USA system is designed to deliver an incredible amount of sound for pickup trucks from Chevrolet/GMC, Dodge, Nissan, Toyota, and Fords, such as the Deegan-owned F-150 SVT Raptor pickup displayed in the Gibson booth.

“We designed this system for the 16 to 20 year olds out there, who still live at home and don’t have a mortgage yet and want and can afford an extremely loud, aggressive exhaust system like this on their trucks,” said Shawn Gibson.

So, how loud is the new Metal Mulisha exhaust system, exactly?

“It’s obnoxiously loud. If you’re out on the road with it and you’re doing stupid things, it’s going to get you in trouble, because it’ll certainly get some attention,” says Gibson. “We may actually have to tone it down some.”
