hey, what wheels are on your 1500 quadrasteer? have not seen those before.
Me too, think I'm gonna wait and see what ARH can do for the GMT800's before I go to Ceramic. If I try to keep the budget low, I'll be back on OBX. They are great on my HD, just like the 1 7/8 with 3" merge collectors on the ARH. Looks to be a promising setup if I go Blown on the SS. And don't shoot, but the wheels are off of an 06 Mega Cab Dodge with 90's GMC lug covers. Not much to choose from when trying to tuck an 8 lug wheel.

i thought i recognized them...just dindt make the connection...regarding the wheels. being factory parts, im assuming they are 7" wide..

chrysler....good looks, decent powertrain and horrible interiors...at least you picked one of their strong points. they look pretty good on your ride.


headers.....ARH is sitting high on my list

what are your thoughts on a dual 3" in/out magnaflow? also thinking about 3" dual in and single 4" out with oval tubing....

thanks. i like the simplicity of a single exhaust. not sure f i really need to go with 1 7/8 primaries though, but i am planning on a TVS in the near future. easy setup would be 3" y and a single 3" magnaflow with either 1 3/4 or 1 7/8 headers.
