Default Headers Installed pics inside

Well I finished installing the headers. I just need to drive it over to a muffler shop to have them cut back the stock pipe about 7 inches so it could bolt up to the y-pipe. I coated the y-pipe myself with a ceramic coating that summitracing sells, it doesn't look to bad and it works. I started up my truck open header and let the y-pipe heat up and in less than 5 min it was cool to the touch. Enjoy the pics and comments good or bad are appreciated. thanx

well done! Its a shame that the y-pipe isnt a direct fit to intermediate pipe as full 100% fitment without issues.

nope no issues, except the y-pipe. I just got back from having the stock pipe cut back. Is it normal for the truck to feel slower? It's no tuned at all, it still has the factory tune in it.

What he said. That coating looks pretty good.

Are the headers and Y for the 07+ models? They looks nice.
