So, last night I installed the MBRP Installer Series (through rear bumper, NOT the side exit) exhaust system. It was the aluminized system since stainless is a waste of money. It took me about 2 hours start to finish to remove the old system and install the new one, with a small break in between to start the truck with no muffler (awesome). But I just wanted to give anyone else a tip about the install. At least in my case... If you have a crew cab like me, you won't have to replace the front pipe. The kit comes with two lengths of pipe, one is 31" long, the other is 32" long. And in the crew cab, you must cut down the 31" long pipe to 23", making the total pipe length (together) about 55", and the stock front pipe is 54", in my experience that 1" too short makes absolutely no difference since you can make that up by moving the stainless tips in or out to even the system. The only reason I left my front pipe is because it would not slip off (because the clamp was tightened down so much from the factory that it deformed the pipe) and I was short on time to cut it.
The system sounds great, there is a fair amount of drone but it's exactly what I wanted. It's not so loud that you can't hold a conversation even at WOT.
