We haven't seen ya around much ABRamFan as you must be on the road working Man. Great choice, kinda like the wraparound on the aft cyl piping tube, quality looking Bolts too BTW. When I got my Hookers they didn't have any ceramic in stock and I needed them right away so the paint job I did has since peeled a bit, and happy no heat issues. I believe you don't have the choking Y pipe like us 03's.
In keeping legal with the emissions you can't go wrong!

So did ya get your asian dent fixed and whattabout the skulls.

The dent was fixed last week

With the airbrushing skulls and whatnot I've decided to focus on performance first. There's always time to do a repaint again on the truck down the road to something a little different.

As for the hardware I swapped them all out for stainless (or so I think... It was late at night and we mights got a few mixed up judging by the looks of them) I was originally going to go raw headers and get them coated but for the in stock price of these guys I couldn't pass it up.

Thanks for all the feedback too guys. I really appreciate the good jobs and sounds good comments. It's what makes it all worth it at the end of the day (that and the **** eating grin on my face)

I went the other way, did the long tubes knowing that my planned future mod (custom ground cam) was going to more than take care of the low end... LOL

Cam's still sitting in the garage

But if I lost anything way down in the low RPM range, it's not detectable with the butt dyno. Can really feel it pull better from about 2200 rpm and up though...

I do but I'm hoping to remedy that problem today. Seeming to have a hard time finding one locally. Would it be beneficial to just replace the crushed y or should I replace the whole piping?

IMO, replacing it all would probably be better. The y is definitly the biggest bottleneck in the system but some of the other bends in the system before the y look pretty restrictive too.
