5 inches of goodness
 
... and I am not talking about what Rob has...

I ordered a 5 inch turbo back Monday night and it was on the porch after lunch. Looking forward to having it installed.

Nice save, bud.

Figured it had to be him, 5 inches for me would be extremely generous.

Lol. Did you put your 4 incher on your new ride? I noticed the box when I washed it. I tried to get Joe to install it while I was there, but he said it was too hot.

MonteC 09-26-2012 02:28 PM

Not yet...

Nope. Straight pipe. Everyone says the kit installs in an hour and have been happy with the fitment.

I've got the 4" kit on my dually and im real happy with it, its straight piped but i do wish i had went stainless. Local hill tire was slow and i was working one day and they offered to do it for 75 bucks and i gladly accepted. I dropped it off at 8 am and it took them til 330 to finish. I guess the downpipe being on the turbo for 180,000 miles didn't wanna come off. I gladly paid.

Nice. I don't think Diamond Eye makes a 5 inch SS set up for my truck. Another thing that a lot of people get confused is that it's not actually a turbo back. It clamps to the down pipe. There are a few companies who make nice downpipes for my truck, but I will do that later. I think the tune, stepper motors (Bad Bob), and AFE mouth piece will be next.

On my truck it is a turbo back.

That is a good looking truck, mind sharing how much it set you back? If not of course no biggie. I just have no idea how much those go for and want to get one at some point.
