The stacks look pretty good Randy...I was going to suggest doing them at a meeting, but it looks like you got it covered. If you still have it and don't need it, I might take what's left of the 4" off your hands and slap it on my truck.

That's fine by me....just thought I'd ask. Although I keep thinking about the possibility of going 3 to 5 right after the transfer case and then 5 out the back but who knows...haha. I'm anxious to see and hear those stacks in person.

I bet I will, but the problem is I just finished convincing myself not to do stacks! haha... Five inch from the downpipe would be nuts, but I think we could work it in at a meeting.

You need to mine, since I started my new job, I dont have any time to get them done. We are about 1/2 done, we need to cut the 45's, paint black and install.

Yea funny thing, I used to work in Cresson at Simms. Now I work for a company called Sweetwater. We work 80+ hrs week so your much more likely to see one of those trucks, mostly all 08 fords. We stop at the store there at 171 and 377 almost everyday, **** good fajitas. My truck goes from home to work to home. If im off ill gladly go to one of your meetings.

Randy they look good, your one of the first guys to bolt a flange at the bottom to take it out easily.

With the windows shut it is as quiet if not quieter than the 6" tip out the back. Cant even hear a drone at 80. Havent had a load on it yet, only driven it 100miles with the stacks, Im intercooling it right now.

Thanks!
Good or bad, ol blue doesnt tow much at all anymore. The 05 dmax in my sig does all the grunt work. Not as fun, but a little nicer. Funny thing is my dodge will outpull it as it sits....of course, being bit by the hi-po bug 4 years ago, I am ordering a chip this week lol.
