FML and this exhaust
FML and this exhaust
Let me just say, Magnaflow did not make this exhaust system simple to install!
Everything seams 2" to short LOL. I think I am going to able squeeze it all together, but man oh man what a pain in the A$$ They need to elongate the pipe from the y-pipe to the muffler 2" and everything would snap together!
I spent like 3 hours tonight working on it, which included removal of the old, lifting the truck up, and getting my work environment set up. I feel I have another 3 hours to go on it.

yea when i was reading some reviews on that exhaust, a whole bunch of guys said that it was an awesome exhaust, except for the fact that some hangers didn't match up perfectly, and that it was a few inches short.
Other than that they had nothing to complain about the sound of it though.
Good luck with the rest of the install.

Well after digging out the trusty ole acetylene torch to bend the **** out of the hangers I was able to get the exhaust system done. I swear Magnaflow will be receiving a letter from me about this system. They need to make that freaking pipe from the y-pipe to the muffler 2" longer.
So no sound clip right now due to it being like -8 out. I froze my a$$ off to get some quick ****ty pics. But sound wise its actually pretty quite. I would compare it to the MBRP sound quality. Nice rumble, not much back popping which is a huge plus. I feel tons more low end which was lost. I can break the tires in first second and third which was scary my first WOT.
I will say its nice to be able to use my phone while I drive. The entire cab and everything in the truck would vibrate with no exhaust. Now its kinda nice and smooth. The exhaust actually makes the engine sound stronger.
