I will try to take some pictures. Have the sawzall all ready to go. The tailpipe is already off. So that is one less piece to remove.

Well guys I got the exhaust system on today. Took about 3 hours. Did not get a chance to snap any pictures. If I get some time I will take some of the finished product. It really wasn't that bad of a job. If I had a lift and a buddy to help it would have taken maybe an hour. I started out by doing a mufflerectomy on the old system (thank god for the sawzall). One cut in the middle just before the resonator and couple of quick cuts on the brackets and the back half was off. Next I took off the bolts from the turbo outlet (thank god for a buddies 24 inch ratchet extension) and the other half was off. The install went pretty quick all except for the downpipe. This thing was a bear. Dodge did not think about adding an aftermarket 4 inch downpipe when they designed the truck . Finally got everything in place and measured twice and cut once for the middle section. Fit like a glove . Put the stainless tip on and fired her up. It was actually quieter than the staock system ***. But then I took her out for a ride and I took off and opened her up. I now heard the deep throaty growl that everyone talks about . My fuel mileage will now drop through the floor cause I wanna open her up to hear that puppy growl . Oh well maybe next year the wife will let me get an EDGE EZ.

I've had my 4" straight pipe on for 3 years now. I still like to open her up just to hear that straight pipe roar. It's addicting. Congrats on the exhaust. Now let the BOMBing begin.
