Getblown

You said your stacks are the same as those on ebay. Is it a 4" Y-pipe into 5" stacks or a 5" Y-pipe? Looking at them for my truck Thanks

Got a little over a hundred bucks in my single setup. 4'' to 5'' stack. Shoulda done it months ago. Sounds waaay better than 3.5'' straight pipe and cooled my egt's a fair bit. More pics in gallery.

umm did u order the kit already?! if not then id like to consider square tubing instead of the Y pipe and elbow route.....i have a 3x6" steel tubing there...mig welded a couple of pieces of sheet metal on each side to close it off...drilled holes on either end and one one the bottom in the middle ...mig welded a short 4" pipe on the bottom and a couple 5" cup holders type things on the top at either end....painted the sucker a high heat black and put some clear coat on her.....stacks fit in nicely....absolutely NO hassle getting things straight like with the elbows and all that

the square tubing is lower off the bed and takes up wayyyyy less space than the elbows and its also heavier duty ...i can go to the landscape yards and have them drop 2 tons of gravel on there and not worry...

there's a few other guys on here who have gone the square tubing route...i will never go back to elbows and y splitters again


ps got the square tubing for 40$ at a local steel place....and the stacks from a big rig wreckers for 20$/each...add a lil bit of flex pipe for 15$ and then a weekend's worth of ur time

If I had a welder and could weld worth a darn I'd build my own but I can't so I don't have that luxury. I ordered the kit earlier tonight and I'm hoping to have it before the 12th. Next week would be nice but I'm not putting my money on it.

Miter cut a little above the cab. I'll adjust the height depending on look and sound. I'll get pics of everything.
