get a cut out right before your muffler, and have it pointed to the right side of the truck.

This is exactly what I have including the cut out... but mine is dumped under the bed.

I would guess they give up a few HP on the street to keep the sound to reasonable levels and allow for easier fitment of tubing under the vehicle.

So how did you do it? 3" y-pipe?
What muffler?
Don't say flowmaster please.....if so change it it's good for hurting horsepower not gaining any.
On average you lose around 8-10 hp to the wheels with a flowmaster vs a STOCK muffler.
