Default couldn't wait for the cutout...

damn....cams been in for like 6 months now just purring thru the stock catback. Got sick of waiting for my DMH so I just pulled off the stock catback of the y pipe flange. Went to go get some gas....holy hell...did not think it would be that loud. Scott, how the hell did you DD your truck without getting pulled over left and right. LOL. Talk about fun....makes 11 mpg semi worth it...I guess.

I'll get some short vids up when I get the cutout welded in. I noticed the stall was flashing like a ****, must be some added power I'm sure WOT needs to be retuned, probably lean now.

You'll get used to it. My truck didn't seem loud at all to me after driving it for so long.

Mine doesn't seem that loud either but I've been pulled over twice because I was "accelerating too quickly" when I had throttle pushed with my pinky toe...

Mine was right before the muffler. I guess I meant NO y pipe. The 2 times I installed headers and drove to the muffler shop, my truck was so freaking loud and shaking everything.
