I just had the exhaust done on my 99 last month. I was quoted $350, he ended up doing it for $300 plus tax but he wasn't too happy about it.

It's a true dual 2.5" system with no cats and two Flowmaster 40's and no crossover.

It's LOUD. It gets choppy while cruising and accelerating, but overall it sounds good. I plan on installing a Magnaflow X pipe to hopefully quiet it down a little and eliminate the choppiness.

 

Did you talk him down to $300 or?

 

Yes, I told him I was quoted $300 by his ex employee that runs a shop across town

 

Ya I was planning on just putting an x pipe on but I think it might cause issues with the cops. I dont want too much snap either

 

That was damn funny!

I'm currently running true duals with O2s in one pipe....duals run to series 40 flowmasters and my neighbor complains that his whole house shakes...something about dishes rattling and such...idk but I love the way they sound..i dont have any real comparison however.

I've been told the H pipe is sorta the right way to do it though with the consideration being given to placement of the o2 sensor...one right in the H pipe i believe

 

Hey Jr. Mechanic....did you run non-foulers for your post o2?

also this may be a good time to mention o2 sensor bungs....i went to fastenal and had them order me a bag of 10 (smallest amt could be ordered) of these 18mm x 1.5 steel nuts to weld onto the pipe. cheapest way to get the bungs i could find. cost me 10 bux an now i got spares.

 

bailey i really like all the red looks ****ing great! If true duals wont lose me any ponies or lowend ill go that route but everyone seems pretty horny about the x so i might have to just try that out first

 

Thank you for the comp on the truck...an yeah give the x a go an report back.

btw my trucks in the rotm this month so if ya really like it i could use a vote when the polls open...i gotta try an win out the veteran and my mentor merc. lol Hes got a real nice truck though and hes gettin pounded with snow so it should make for some real nice pics.

 

well i went and made an appointment at my local muffler shop and he just didnt agree with anything i wanted. So i am now getting 2.5inch pipe true duals no mufflers and he wants six hundred bucks and im getting him to clamp in a spot so i could put mufflers on at some point if needed

 

$600? Ouch
