What should i see on egts going from 3in to 5in and in sound too?

I am getting 5in for 300 dollars shipped to me and i was wondering what kind of a gain i would get from the drop of the egts and what kind of tone i would get?

Here is what mine sounds like:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2jedUYyRJw

I'd say about a couple hundred overall decrease in EGT's for me. But that's hard to say in general.

i got mine from summit racing...it sounds great for 400 dollars. i dont know about egt temps with before and after. i know with my heavy fueling i get around 900 going down the highway and 1300 wot. i took the muffler off for a weekend and it was way too loud sounded like a big rig.

so 4" or 5" with a stock turbo ??

5in with stock turbo

is that muffled or no muffler?

is that muffled or no muffler?

Yeah, well it's the mbrp muffler, if that counts as a muffler. It is pretty loud outside the cab, not too bad inside.

I Have a 4in dp 5in straight thats a 300 ebay special. Level 5 on my juice at WOT will rumble yer inards if your a passenger. Otherwise, just cruising its not too bad at all. It does sound like a semi though, as so everyone around me says.

That is no muff and 300 shipped to my door. With a 5" down pipe.

Well i got the exhaust installed on black friday. I like it it changed the tone and dropped the egts a little but not much it doesnt climb like it did when i really get into it. After i installed it a kid and his dad were in his cummins with a set of stacks and i smoked him with out my programer, i was happy and so was the wife she love that truck. Thanks for the imputs in am very happy with the kit i got.

I have never seen a 5" dp you better dble check that....in fact I dont theing there is room for a 5 inch dp.

I have a 4 inch dp to a 5 inch system. I get a pretty loud drone on this truck with it, but on my standard cab....no drone, same system...go figure[duhhh]

I still love the way 5" sounds. I will deal with the drone

i have a stock 3.5 inch strait pipe with a 4 inch flo pro tip and its a little loud now that im getting older but the strait pipe alone was only 50 bucks at a local muffler shop and the inside drone is not bad unless i get over 70. I was thinking of finding a 3.5 inch areo turbine to replace the strait, anyone have some cheap advice with the stock 3.5inch pipe?

I had a 4" Summit exhaust for a few years until it rotted out. My ebay 4" into 5" has a MUCH bigger muffler and is a lot quieter on the highway (less in cab drone) than my 4" system was. At first I wasn't sure I liked it but after doing 700 miles with the truck on Sunday I'm glad its quieter now.

slap a hx-40 style 4inch down pipe(5inch has no real point as far as i can tell) with an adapter to go to the stock turbo, then add a 5inch exhaust with or with out a muffler and be done with it that way you have a low resitricion exhaust system that you dont have to mess with ever again should you decide to add things like bigger injectors, or turbos
