It sounds freakin BAD!!! Esp. when you lug the ol girl down a little. That's if you have the back window slid open. if you shut the cab up and turn the A/C on, you can just barely tell they're there when you get on it hard. When you decelerate you can hear it a little more than stock exhaust with everything closed up. Outside idling it sounds AWESOME!!! Nothing like a turbo in stereo LMAO.
I couldn't get pics last night, but I do have smoke rollin out of them! Found out just how long it takes to coat the inside of the stacks LOL (about 3-5 miles depending on your smoke level).
RV275's are going in tonight, should smoke pretty good with that and the EZ.

yep, still got my girlfriend ridin in the window...


The whole thing was custom made, except for the stacks of course.
I will build you a set if you want them, shipping might be a bit to wisconsin though, the cross-pipe is pretty heavy. I just don't like the idea of buying "kits" when I have the steel, welder and torch to make my own stuff, for a lot cheaper than retail.
As far as the toolbox goes, I just opened the lid and set it to where it would just clear the pipes when opening and closing. To finish the whole thing off, I'm gonna try to find a piece of aluminum to put in front of the toolbox, and keep stuff from rolling up and melting on the pipes. I might put a piece of diamond plate down over the stacks as well, to sort of hide the cross pipe, but I might just leave it as it is, still looks good.

Kindof like this???

I also have a topplate made with 2- 5 1/4" holes cut to slide over the stacks to cover up the gap infront of my toolbox. I will try to get some pix later. and as far as wanting stack crosboxes made, If I could get reasonable prices on the shipping, Im gonna buy more steel, I have built 15 of them over the last year, and have been selling every one I made, I get $120 each{Just thecomplete crossbox, no stacks included} I got orders for 3 more, if you would want one, let me know with a PM, I will see what I can do for you.

need12v,
How do you like the RV275's and the ez? Much more power over having just the ez? I currently have an ez and was looking into those injectors or something similar.
