Changed exhaust, dumped it, now side pipes
#1
Ok I first started out with 2.25 tails out the back, I figured they were a little to restrictive for a 6.0L, so I cut the pipes off at the muffler and welded on dumps. I did not like the sound at all being dumped before the axle, way to rumbley, and what little lope it had was undetectable.
So I got some 316L food grade stainless pipe from work and some weldable 45's and 90's, and welded it up so the pipes come out right in front of the RR tire. It was also my first time tig welding, but I got the hang of it.
Now I love the sound, and it looks cool, I just wish I could run pipes on the drivers side to match it.
This is all with a 14" 3 in dual 2 1/2 out magnaflow muffler.

My truck is a lot cleaner in those pics, than it is now. Its winter here, right now the colour of the truck is more of a road salt white, than black.
At first I wasn't sure if I would like the look of the pipes out the side like that, I've seen ones cut on a 45, and ones coming straight out, didn't really like the look of either one. So I made it with a angle in between the two, it turned out better than I expected. All it cost me was a day and a half of my time.
