I think no cap. but if you want to be different run your 5 inch like nerf bars. a 5" pipe shiny, exiting just in front of the rear wheels like the old corvettes.

you have to figure out something new, i run one stack want to run more but dont have the money, you have to just keep changin your game come up with somethin new and see how long it takes someone to copy ya.

Don't really know, i like both!! But to be different i really don't think that either of these are really all that different, you'll have to think up something else!!!!

Thats the same problem I have here i wanted to put stacks but evryone and there mothers have stacks. If you dont need your spare tire you could make the tail pie exit angled under the rear license plate Ive wanted to do this in the past but have yet to make up my mind on to do it or not

heres a couple of pics of someone who has done it all ready:

scare:
with a 3" lift could you run the 5" turbo back right at the underside of the frame? then maybe duals tucked right under the bumper, straight back?

I've notices the same. Stacks are like the norm around here. I've never been a cap kind of person. I run a Mustang bed cover during the winter.

figure a way to run your stacks with the caps on like put a hole in the top like hood stacks are but you would need to figure away to keep water out of the cap maybe a roof seal or something
