Looks like they did a great job setting that up for ya. You must be pretty pumped. Do you notice any increase or decrease in power SOTP?

I noticed a little loss in low end but a decent gain up top. The crink bent 3" pipe and cats were choking the exhaust pretty bad.

So I've pretty much decided the 14" may be a little too loud with my setup. With the loose converter I'm at around 2800-3000 rpm to keep up with traffic. So I can either buy a 20" magnaflow to replace the 14" and run the exhaust out the back like it is now.
Or I may be able to use the 30" case and dump it before the axle.
What say you?

Found a 12" long 3" in/out 4" body glasspack that will fit in the section on 3" pipe. only $40. Its another option.

That doesnt sound like a bad option... but I can't imagine a 4" body glass pack will do much of anything. Not to mention that after a while I think they kinda blow out and are good for nothing, especially so close to the engine where the exhaust will be really hot. Kinda seems like a shame to ditch the tail pipe after all the work you had done to make it fit though. Could you fit another 4" resonator in there? Maybe the combo of another 4" muffler/resonator, and the 2 4" glasspacks it will be just where you want it.

I ran mine dumped for a short amount of time, I hated it. On mine it made the drone horrible. It sounded mean outside the truck, but in the cab it was unbearable to me.

Anyone else? Right now I'm considering the 20" Magnaflow first. And go from there. But either way I'm saving up to finish paying off the Procharger so exhaust will come after.
