I used to like two stacks but now I like the singles better.

A large percentage of Semi's running down the road run inline engines and still run dual stacks. Different strokes for different folks. Stacks will flat dirty up a truck though. But I still like em' especially on standard cabs and dually's.

No stacks I had 6in mitres with custom diamond plate box and they looked great but it was tearing up my interior everytime I started truck windows had to be up or soot went all over my lite grey interior and forget about opening back window up headliner will be trashed. I like the look though and went back to full exhaust and forgot how nice it was to hear the radio. I did consider leaving muffler on moving it forward to reinstall stacks but I have enough stains in seats just my 2 cents

The stack idea is sounding like a pain in the a$$, i always leave my windows open and most likelywould forget about that.. I really like the look and would love to see the smoke trail. My girl shoots a mean black cloud on take off too. Well still undecided so keep'em coming...thanks Chad

my vote is for no stacks, unless you have a legitimate need for them. otherwise it seems no different from putting a big wing on your honda. trying to make your vehicle something it is not

If you want an honest opinion,don't do it. Stacks are gay.

Your definition for the word "gay" is a little flawed.

It all depends on what stacks will go on whether it would be a good decision or not. I have had my stacks for almost 2yrs now and have not had any issues with soot blowing in the cab. It will blow in the bed and on the rails, but it wipes off pretty easy.

dont listen to the haters!
stacks are awesome..single or dual
but they are 100% dirty....and worth it.
thats the only down to them IMHO is the soot...it only takes one time of starting your truck with the doors open after a rain storm with no stack hat for you to remember to keep the doors and windows up on start up....

my trucks white and it shows all the soot..but I would still not take my single out...I love it.


what do I need bed space for???


that what trailers are for











DO IT....but get a muffler straight pipe stack is too loud for my taste.

I just put a 5" turbo back kit on my truck with dual 6" miters. One thing I noticed right away was the fact that my EGT's dropped by 100* empty, and 300* while pulling a trailer

I forgot once and the exhaust did not push the covers off, I had to jump out really fast and pullone off before it blew out the seams. I guess that is what I get for custom making them to fit tight.
