No problems with header install. They fit great. I ended up cutting y-pipe and running 3" duals back from headers into an Aero dual inlet/dual outlet muffler and two 3" tailpipes out behind the RR tire.

I am running ARH 1 7/8", no cats, dual 3" all the way back. My dual Magnaflows don't drone under low load/cruise conditions, but they are plenty loud under any acceleration. Looks like the headers are awfully close to, if not rubbing on the steering column now that the new engine mounts have levelled out.

Not sure of any performance benefit(scavenging) to an X with a blower. Anyone notice a change in sound after adding an X? BTW...I believe the internal X Magnaflow is 2.5" pipe internally even though the inlets/outlets are 3".

I have the same exhaust as you except 1.75 headers. I had an X pipe, but got rid of it when I added cutouts. Wish I had the X back. It's quite a bit louder without the X.

What length magnaflows did you go with? How loud are they just putting around a neighborhood?

youtube' " Dirtmafia "and a video of my 2500 (pre radix) should come up...same exhaust setup as I have now, Pacesetter, 3in magnaflow IN/OUT ( 20~ inch can) to side exit before the tire. Sounds mild on idle, low and deep on mid throttle, and "Im going to kill you" on WOT.

5 x 11 x 22.

Hehe....My wife told me last night that she could stll hear me a few streets away with all the windows in the house closed. Most likely accelerating, though lightly, from stop signs. Would probably be a little quieter with cats.

I'm cutting the cutouts out and adding a couple of resonators and an X pipe back in. It's all going in between the headers and the Magnaflows. I'm hoping it will be closer to quiet at cruise. I don't mind the noise accelerating, but I've had my fill of this exhaust that never shuts up. I don't hear too good to start with, so passengers have to scream for me to understand them. Gets old quick.
