Damn I just looked around and yes they have gone up a lot. It was the right side exit with resonator and muffler. I remember it was 7 something I think I posted up. I don't ever sensationalize stuff for sure. Sorry...

I was hoping to have the 4" cutout setup done weeks ago but the slave cylinder gave out and I had other more important projects then dropping the trans again. So I just got the slave swapped out and truck buttoned up yesterday, I'm going to call the fab shop today and see when they can get me in. I'm a little worried there won't be enough room for 2 Vibrant ultra quiets in the Y pipe before the merge. The shop does some really beautiful work and specializes in import drift cars so they are used to tight spaces. If they cant get them to fit I'll step down to the Vibrant bullet resonators.
Can't get the current Y pipe back in without loosening the headers which I really don't want to do so I guess I'll be driving to the fab shop open header.
Truck still needs a lot of little stuff updated/cleaned up but heres a little open header video with some chop

i remember last time i had open headers...
got dark during the install & i hadn't figured out to loosen both ends to make it all fit together, so i just started it with open headers to verify everything else was good.
10pm, on base, in the family housing section... THAT's when it became apparent that i forgot to install the freeze plug into the intake where i'd deleted the EGR. screamed up to about 5500rpm before i killed the ignition. whoops.

Damn wish I had know I know exactly who you should have gone to here in dallas. But yeah people are overly concerned about working on modded cars.. it gets annoying sometimes.

I didn't live there long enough to make any great connections and I worked non-stop while I was there so I had no free time. But yeah I like Florida auto laws, you could register a shopping cart here if you duct taped a VIN on the handle.

Yes I agree dual 3" cutouts would flow more than a single 4" but I don't know If I have that space or want to complicate the setup that much. From my googling 4 should support my power level (600ish) and the difference between single 3" and single 4" is big where Single 4" to dual 3" Isn't that much difference.
Plus not sure why but I feel like single exit sounds rowdier at high rpm than dual. What do you guys think?
