Well do this take the passenger side exhaust under the truck toward driver side. Merge into a 3" and run it into the turbo. Basicly same as kbracing and trick kit except going the opposite way for crossover. Thin run exhaust out downpipe around underneath oil pan near the driver side. Plenty room to do it. I been eye balling building a kit on my girls tbss.

Front crossover creates too much heat in engine bay

Hit up Kyle Brixey, he was gathering interest in his setup he fabbed up. By far the cleanest front mount I've seen yet on a GMT360.
