The exhaust is SS cool duals by MBRP. They really don't have a drone but are a little on the loud side, but not at loud as a straight pipe (note: cat fell off). Cruising at 1800 is nice. Right around 2100 gets a little loud and then quiets back down again around 2400 - 2500. Again, its really not a drone - just gets a little loud inside the cab. Never too loud where you can't hold a conversation with someone inside the truck though. If I had the choice I would do it again!!!

My only complaint is it really didn't fit right. I guess with the lift kit and slightly different shock angle it was tuff to get things aligned up. I spent a good hour test fitting and adjusting. The clamps stink also, but that I believe is just inherent to using a standard 'crush' style pipe clamp on a 4" exhaust....not the best. If you have a muffler shop do the install I'd suggest tacking or just welding all the joints so they don't loosen up. I've gone thru and readjusted the exhaust 4 times already just because things loosened up and moved (driver side exhaust keeps falling and hitting shock).

Hope this helps ya guys......

Comstock,

It's a 6 inch Superlift with 37x13.50 Toyo M/T's. I love it! It's been an awesome truck.

Thanks for the thumbs!

Chad
