The file is too big, I had to download some software to chop it up a bit. work on it when i get home this AM.
If everything transfers well I'll put it up when I'm done.

Okay. Found some good editing software and gut it chopped down to the important stuff. I amplified it a little so you can hear it better. After doing this video I think i definitely want Dual Xr1s.
If I can later I MIGHT see about doing some video from another vehicle while driving. Doesn't pickup real well in the cab.






EDIT: That is XR269HR cam, LT's ORY Dynomax Bullet and Borla XR1 dumped before the axle. 3" pipe.
1-2 shift is actually coming in around 6400 rpm

guys, what options are there for 4" mufflers besides the XR-1 and Magnaflow race series? I pulled up some XR-1 clips on youtube and honestly, it didn't sound all too good to me. I want a straight thru muffler that's going to give me that muscle car, big block sound.

Ok so the plan has changed but from what you guys have posted i'm going with the Borla's but im going to wait and get true duals done. Way i see it, if i'm going to spend all the money I might as well do it the way I want the first time. And those are sick sounding trucks viciousknid and trever1t. Also with LT's are there any clearance issues with xmembers or linkages of any sort?

Figured it's worth adding. I'm not sure about Bills setup, but I have the Oval XR-1's. The round one's will flow more and likely have a different sound.
