Can't wait to see and hear some sound clips/videos, Teach. On a side note, have you had any issues with the high-flow cats, or did you do the non-fouler trick?

No problem so far with the high flow cats and I did not do the non-fouler trick. Just screwed the rear O2 sensors in the rear bung of the cats and no codes.

If it would stop raining I could set up the camera on the front porch and do a couple drive bys. Tried to get the wife to hold the camera for me but she wants no part of standing in the rain while I drive around

Definitely. A much better tone to the exhaust and a nice bump in power. Well worth the price.

about the coating on the long tubes, i noticed you said you went for the painted ones. is there any difference on the performance or fitment of the different coatings, and do the coatings make them last longer or just a cosmetic thing..........and last did you use the gasket they sent because i heard i should get the mopar gaskets. hopefully mine should be here by next friday, cant wait to hear them with a super truck exhaust

The gaskets that came with them didn't look like they would last too long. I took a drive to my nearest dealer and got a set of gaskets from them. Ran me about $20. The coating is supposed to keep them from rusting and keep underhood temp down. As far as performance, I don't beleive that the coating has any effect on performance other than cooler underhood temps which could help lower the temp of air being pulled into the engine.
