Sorry the truck is so dirty.my driveway is a mud hole after all this rain.

install was easy but if you want to keep your factory system in one piece intead of cutting it in half as their directions tell you, just drop the spare tire and slide the whole unit back untill the collecter flange will clear the crossmember.then pull it out towards the front. it will take a helper to hold the other end and help rotate it around the axle.went together really well, seemed like it maybe could have used another inch on the head pipe, but it wasnt to short, just might have fit snugger with another inch.

after starting and a couple revs i really like the sound.barely noticable at crusing speeds but comes alive at wot. not to loud for my taste, but definitly louder than my last truck with magnaflow. wasnt sure if i wanted the touring or sport but im happy with my decision of the sport. not sure what it sounds like on the outside at wot but its not obnoxious at all on the inside. there is NO DRONE as advertised like the magnaflow had. the only thing i dont like about it is at wot above 4k there is a high pitch whistle from what seems to be directly under the cab, but its not overly loud, just there, and a little annoying.as far as performance-the only thing i have to measure it by is a spot on the interstate that is uphill about 6% grade and roughly a quarter mile. i hit the bottom at 50mph( there is a bridge and as soon as i feel the tires hit the bridge i floor it) and run up the hill to the next exit sign. before it would pull up to 89-90 mph. after install it would pull up to 92-93 mph.(did this several times) i feel as if thats pretty good gain for just a catback and no other mods.

 

Just make sure you tack weld the tip on. It's a pretty expensive tip to have to replace. All the thieves need is a crescent wrench and it's gone.

 

Exactly why mine is tacked on
