Ordered my exhaust components from the front cats back (manifold back) for less than $600 today!
It will be a combination of AP Exhaust, Walker, Magnaflow and Performance Curve.
Hoping it all arrives before this weekend so I can put it on.

dB Level Restrictions
What is the strictest exhauts/muffler dB restrictions in the US? I dont like a stupid loud muffler but I'd like to know what I could work with. I live in SC, so i should be fine with whatever I get, but say I want to go out on the roads somewhere else. Dont feel like getting pulled.

hanging trere
Dude, You have to have hangers on your system or it will end up on the road. There should be one on top of the TC cross member and one behind the muffler. The Cherry Bomb you need is straight on both ends. you can still use the one you have if you heat and bend the inlet and outlet. This will get it up intro stock position.

well, i just bought it, and the guy before me like jerry rigged everything. And since the muffler is not at the back of the truck i think im going to buy some exhaust piping or something and run a pipe to the back and slap on a chrome tip, and then i will make or buy some brackets to hang it on
