Talking Todays project- new exhaust system

I am just about done welding up my exhaust and am excited to "hear the power"

I had a custom pipe made for after the cat to the muffler with a bung fitting for $30. I replaced the cat with a magnaflow ($85) and got a flowmaster 40 series ($60). I am using the original tailpipe since it was in good shape.

Just waitin for the mig to cool down some and I'll finish her up and post a video on youtube.

I filmed a short clip, but cant find the cord to upload .... Have to wait till my daughter gets home because its her camera and she knows where the cord is and how to upload/edit/post it.

Jeg's sells Magnaflow HF Cats for $83.99. Unless you can get it locally from someone you know, that's probably one of the best prices you'll find. Most exhuast shops mark them up to $100+.

Sounds like a great plan! My Flowmaster Super 44 came in tonight so I will most likely get it installed tomorrow and post up a video....was wondering though, how much difference would that magnaflow cat that everyone speaks of make paired with a Dual Exhaust Flowmaster Super 44? Louder? Or more power? and by louder would that be in the truck or outside the truck?

I went to have my MagnaFlow cat installed today and the places I stopped at tried to talk me out of it. Three shops with cash in hand and no install. One shop said it would throw codes with the high flow>

I'll try again tomorrow.
