so ummmm i think i know how i want my exhaust done lol

 

And remember we have done 90% of this build ourselves in my garage. A shop had to weld the cats in because neither of us have a welder but the rest we have done on our own. 224s cams, lash caps, SPAL, Efan, Headers, Rancho's and a couple of other goodies I can't mention just yet we did right here ourselves. Even the paintwork on his bumpers we did right here in my garage.

Travis should be extremely proud of this truck. This is the result of his patience and dirty/greasy hands about 6-8 days a month.

 

now my ? is is there any draw back or long term after effects if you just run headers and cats and nothing else? i mean i know in virginia thats totally illegal and could not get away with it but what about performance wise? any draw backs over the long haul?

 

Wow, that just plain sounds sweet.

 

sound awsome!!! if you close your eyes and just listen to it, you are sure its a fast car...only thing is with a exhaust that loud you really ear that tranny shift sooo slow! you have a chip?


truck looking sick by the way!

 

He is SCT tuned and has a Sharadon Performance Stage 3 tranny valve body.

If your cats are failing its not illegal to switch them out.

 

wow ... i would expect a better result with that!

am i wrong?

 

It shifted slow because I was braking and then I floored it so it tried to start out in a higher gear the second time around. But if I'm just coasting on the main road or free way and I floor it it really pushes me back into my seat... it's great.

Also... this is not a long term setup because I can smell the exhaust pretty bad when I'm not moving. I can feel a loss in low end torque as well. Back pressure is not a myth!

 

A stock engine would not benefit much from high flow cats. For stock engines the best bet is high flow performance muffler and headers.

Anyway.
