im planning on redoing my entire exhaust. its covered in mud that i cant get off. and i hate looking at that. i plan on getting Long tube headers, not sure if i want cats. if i dont get cats ill get O2simulators. 3in pipe all throughout, my cutout, not sure on muffler and tips. also debating on going True dual.
what do yall think? need some oppinions on brands to get and on headers, mufflers, cats, and tips. or im thinking just forget the muffler and cutout and go straight pipe with no cats.
still in the thinking process and not sure when it will all get done. but ive wanted to do my exhaust for a while now.

thanks
-Nick

I'm redoing mine soon. From the collector with 3" pipe (eliminated the cats) to a 3" Y, out to a 3" pipe into the flowmaster super 44 which I already have. Then dumped right after. All in all its only goin to run about $200 with exhaust shop only doin the pipe from the collector to the Y pipe. I'm getting the Y and the 3" pipe off of eBay. And my roommate is welding so its gonna be a complete budget build lol hope this helps

if you end up going duals, dont go dual 3", bump it down to something like dual 2.5"

This. Even if you went with a y and kept it single from there back, I think 3" would be overkill

i was thinking magnaflow also. i want to go straight pipe but i think it might be a little to loud. i want a nice deep rumble. but loud and mean at WOT
now that i have a new job i have a ton of ideas bouncing around.

Ive got the magnaflow 18", with the Pacesetter LT headers and hi-flo cats. Its a nice rumble at low speeds, and when you go WOT its really loud. I'd go with a 14" if I were you though.

do you have any sound clips? and with the Hi-flo do you have a Check engine light?

I did. But I just bought some non-foulers from 3rdStrike, and no problems now. Non of the sound clips I get do justice. But I can try. Lol. Have to let the camera charge first.

Very much so. Just take out the rear sensor, put this in it's place, and then put the rear sensor on top of it. No more emissions codes. Lol.

Nope. I dont get paid till the 25th. I know im gonne get pace setter long tube headers for sure. Still deciding on everything else. I also know i want to get all new piping. Maybe ill buy a programer first and think about the exhaust some more. Also want hi flow cats. Not sure of muffler or tips or if i want true dual. Lots of thinking going on. Haha
