Exhaust Finally Ordered
Okay guys it really opened up today, maybe it just needed to get really hot. It is quite a bit louder, much more noticeable in the cab, Idle still is pretty quiet for my taste, but that is just me.
I have uploaded a vid for you guys, this was taken not 30 min ago, right after I stopped by my buddies house to use his camera. The exhaust is still hot it was off no more than 5 mins.

It seems alot louder on the camera than it is though.
The other I also took pictures of the tips, their locations, which bugs me, and the gap between body and tip which bugs that crap out of me.

Notice that the drivers side is a couple inches forward, and has nearly no gap between the top of the tip and the body, and the passenger has almost an inch. I bet that paint is gonna be getting hot at a stoplight. Didn't get to take it by the muffler shop today, Ill do that tomorrow, and have the put a bend in the drivers side to make it have a little more gap, and possibly see if they could extend it an inch or two back.
So there ya go, Dutch, if you do get the system do be ready to either drill or weld the back two mounts.
Or do the other option, and get a smaller bolt for each side, and put the plate inside the frame. That would work too. I didn't have the smaller bolts, nor a vehicle that was street legal at the time, so I just welded them.

You can see in my video where the drivers side is mounted. The system was put on right out of the box. Either way; atleast it sounds good. Idle was a little disappointing for me as well, but I like having something that is neighbor friendly since I like to start my truck early on cold mornings.
And a video doesnt do this system justice. It is one mean sounding system when paired with a 4.7l.
