I though about it, but didn't know how it would sound and wanted to get away from the diesel look, to many people though it looked like a Dmax,

Wanted the fast gas look

Yeah that 10 rib kit was kind of a joke. The crank pulley was smaller, I had to search for my own bearings for the tensioner, no idler was included, and the alt pulley was cut too thin so the nut bottomed out on the shaft before it even touched the pulley. This kit is fantastic It came with 2 EXTRA pulleys, overdrive crank, all of the bearings are included and already pressed in, idlers cam with spacers, etc etc.

Those pullies look much better IMO. They definitely look like there was quite a bit more thought put into them.

As for the exhaust, those stainless MIG welds look great Kyle! We experimented with MIG'ing SS at work, and they never really came out that good. Lots of clean up was required. But yours look great. We were using Argon, but now it makes me think we should've tried trimix before calling it quits. Nice work!

BTW, dual 3" will flow better than your single 4". A single 5" will out flow a dual 3.5" though.
