Exhaust.

What started out as a Cat delete,I droped the whole set up found rot on the top elbow,for now I ran 5 in pipe right out the back,only problom is the stock downpipe is what 3 3/4?

Ya the down is just jambed into the 5in as far as it can go.

So now I have to find a cheap 5 in muffler and a 5in downpipe before inspection time.

Need to change the oil. Upgrade to the Pro Guard 7 filter with the prefilter. I also need to be mindful of my transmission until it gets upgraded. To many horsey's going through the stocker.
