This.

You're going to want a big difference between the both.

My cut out is just under the cab so that is the reason for the exhaust ran out the back. When I want it quiet, it is quiet and when I want noise, open the cutout. lol.

I ended up getting the 3in single in/ single out 22in magnaflow with the offset in/out. We'll see how it does, hopefully it'll keep the drone down and be nice and quiet when cruising.

Still need to get the longtubes, and piping for the exhuast

Yep all you need is a 3" Y, And is the muffler the 22"x 5x8"? Parke10 has that muff with his LTs and he has it dumped right before the axle and its still pretty loud, Louder than he expected but sounds good. I have the 22x5x8 Dynomax quiet flow, and its quieter than his magnaflow and its pretty quiet at WOT too. If you didnt know any better you wouldnt know I had LTs, Almost like a stock vette compared to loudness.. Also dont get a side exit if you want it quiet. Loved mine but had to cut it because my leafs were in the way once I flipped them..

Heres a couple pics of mine if your interested in seein, Oh and the Cats are fake..





You can see my cutout pipe right before my muff, Pic was taken before I put the DMH on..

I agree, anything past that, with the exception of a turbo is a waste, IMO.

Thanks man!
Thats pretty similar with what i want, minus the cats. Lol its Texas, we don't have that strict cali emission BS. Plus when your buddy does inspections im not worried about not running cats, window tint, etc.

Looks good corey! I like how you ran the dual tips out the back too. Thats one thing i've always liked about your truck.

Maybe 8 small turbos, one off of each exhaust port.
