The local NAPA just sold me 8ft of 4" straight pipe and 2 stainless band clamps for $52.
Is that for galvanized pipe?

I just bought a 10 foot section of regular galvanized muffler pipe from a Farm Implement Co. for $35.90

Since I lost the Cat and changed mufflers I swear my fuel mileage has gone up a bunch. The overhead has gone from running around 18.5 to 21 and there is a quarter tank left after driving all week. Which is a sweet bonus because I did it for other reasons. (I verified that I am running winter blend)

btw -> I really like the sound of this Nelson muffler but it's not loud. I went with a big straight through muffler so the neighbors can sleep in....

I just got back from the nearest city. holy christ did I scare some people. LOL

it is definatley too loud. The cops around here dont have much to do, so anything loud draws there attention.

I'll put the AERO on. at least it will make it rap a little better if anything else.

Well, that stinks!!! I'm hoping that I can just get by with it. I've got a friend with a 5" straight... He's got by for a couple of years like that.
