Default exhaust pics (blu dak)

Before anyone says anything...please note these are from a year ago. it's not rusty anymore and that other resonator you see in the picture has been CUT OUT and replaced with straight pipe. also my whole exhaust is black now...otherwise, this is the way it's set up now as far as piping.

when i put my borla on, i took 1 reso off, and left 1 on. how much of a better flow do you think i will get if i take the other reso off, also, i know borla is known for being relatively quiet at idle, but with a distinctive tone when on it. think i would get much louder if i took that last reso off?

never mind these pics were taken when i already cut the other reso off... it's clean now. it got a little bit louder afterwards by the way, my dad noticed it right away... but it's not night and day.

Looks nice man, yours is set up very similarly to mine, I just have a dual tip instead of a dual muffler

How's the black paint holding up on the piping? And how did you paint it without getting overspray on the truck? I've been thinking about painting my piping black but I'm not sure how it would do with the heat.

I haven't had a chance to make a video yet, don't have a camera and I feel like my cell is too crappy to be worth it. I love the sound of it though, pretty loud and very deep. Here's a link to Cherrybomb's sound clip on their site (Cherrybomb Vortex muffler) it's pretty much right on. http://www.cherrybomb.com/manager/pr...akota_4-7L.mp3

O yeah, did you see my question about the paint on your exhaust?
