your runner? lol you mean tuner? If you mean zippy i emailed him just about a month ago about everything and he just replied a few days ago so i marked that off my list

Milan has been helping me, and ive been in contact with the Guerra group out of Texas which i read/hear alot of good things from them. Im very sketch about email tunes but i really dont have much option as the only place thats somewhat local here doesnt have a great rep and he told me it would take 2 full days to tune so needless to say i didnt call him back

I like how you built the downpipe support, that's a good idea. I should do something like that, mine doesn't have another hanger until the back of the cab after it comes off the turbo.

Ohh, I see now, you just have that piece bolted on to the downpipe with the V band and then down to the wastegate dump.

exactly, ive had dumptubes break before when theres no support, so this was just to keep some of the hanging weight taken care of.

in the exhaust theres a flex right past the frame then the hanger thats right under the back of the cab and 1 where it goes over the axle. seems pretty solid. Then i just have a 4" dump right off the bend over the axle
