Well the install took a little less then an hour. Went and took it for a little test drive. Sounds great.Big props to silverline for one slick kit. I'd recommend them to anyone. Also another big props to Randy's Offroad for having the kit instock[sm=smiley32.gif]




New polished muffler


straight thru design


stock exhaust. If you make a cut about a 1ft to 1 1/2ft infront of the muffler it'll come out as 2 pieces

Does the exhaust dump out of the same area, or somewhere different?

Is it now a 4" exhaust, or something bigger?

Exits at the same spot. The tip is 5" the exhaust is 4" from the turbo back. Stock exhuast on my truck was 3.5" back through the muffler then 4" after the muffler to the tip.

Glad to hear that you're happy with it. Is it noticably louder? You don't have an EGT hooked up yet do you? I'd be curious to see if your EGT's dropped.

At idle its about the same as stock, lower tone though. Doesnt really start to get loud till after 2000rpm. Great sound. No egt gauge yet but I imagine it has to help some.

Not really a preformance mod, more of a visual mod. Plus to mount the mudflaps I had to cut the stock exhuast infront of the muffler cause somebody had collapsed the pipe at the clamps. Rather then hacking it back together I swung by randy's shop on the way down to pick up some railroad ties and they had a turbo back kit in stock
