Oh, okay, good deal. My hanger kit is a couple of clothes hangers... Im not sure if Diamond Eye sells a hanger kit for their kit or not, and Im really not sure if an MBRP kit would work for it or not.. Anyone know?

I ran a 4 1/2" DP (5" wouldn't clear the frame and trans line) to 5" and I'm happy with it. It is overkill but I like the slightly deeper tone.

Been thinkin about 4" w/o muffler/cat or 5" w/ muffler no cat... mbrp. I'm not a fan of the loud crackling exhaust sound. I like more of the deep rumble/growl. What do u guys think the better choice is. Not a performance question...simply a "what sounds more bad ***" question. Thanx

Mine is 5" no muffler and it is deep. It doesn't crackle at all and it isn't loud in the cab if the windows are up. Just go with 5" straight pipe, no muffler or anything.

The only reason I was thinking about the muffler on the 5" was so it wouldnt be too loud. i have heard tye 4" no muffler and think it sounds good. Noone around me has 5" and YouTube doesnt do any justice, i dont think. im not 18 years old, and don't care to wake the enitre nieghborhood. Just want a mean sounding exhaust. ... To put it in some sort of perspective, I love the deep hollow sound of the ford mustang exhaust. Dont mean to drag the issue out, just want to make sure im getting what i want for all that money.

i would get it without the muffler and if its too loud for you im sure you could find a muffler off of a member here that has taken there's off and buy it cheap. it would suck to pay the extra money for the muffler and it not be loud enough and buy a muffler delete pipe for another $100.
