Default Dual Exhaust Awesome!

We'll I finally got rid of the restrictive 5.3 exhaust and went with 3 inch dual pipes all the way to a dual in / dual out magnaflow. I couldn't believe the difference. that stock 5.3 Y pipe bites! For everyone doing a 6.0 swap, cam and supercharger this is a must!!

did you make the drivers side go by the gas tank or run along next to the passenger side on the passenger side?

went from a 3inch in / 3inch out 5x11 magnaflow to a dual 3inch in / dual 3inch out 5 x 11 magnaflow.
Sounds great! It really woke up the engine.

I went with dual 3 inch outlets on the passenger side to keep the sleeper look!

I lost a very slight bit of low end. However the engine winds up much faster due to less restriction and that more than makes up for the slight loss in torque. I can light up the tires on a roll much easier. So I ordered the 6lb and 8lb pulleys for the next round of fun!
