But a built 1st gen is 2135897637094620x more fun to drive then a p-pumped truck! :D

And parts are cheaper. You can get that edge turbo (which comes with a down pipe) and 4" exhaust for under a grand... You cant beat that!

Got to work on the truck some more today and I got the Exhaust on and turbo mounted...

Attachment 53482


Had to clearance the fire wall a little with the sledge hammer for the 2nd gen 4" HX40 style down pipe to fit

Attachment 53483

The expandit exhaust I got from Diesel Dawgs has a 3-1/2" Down pipe. Since I used the 4" 2nd gen I cut off the adapter as well as a short piece of the down pipe and joined them with a short piece of flex pipe.

Then it was just a matter of putting the pieces together. The kit went together VERY easy. It fits PERFECT!!!

Here is the 4" pipe going past the Transfer Case
Attachment 53486

I used band clamps (you can see them in the flex pipe pics) instead of the U-Bolt clamps that come with it. this will make it easier to take apart in the future. I used the u-bolt clamps that came with it for the hangers.

Attachment 53487

I used the stock hanger for the tail pipe. I just drilled a hole in the pipe and put the bolt through.

Attachment 53488

Again... VERY smooth install!

I would HIGHLY recommend this system to anyone who wants a better exhaust for there truck!

RSWORDS 03-21-2009 05:27 PM

No I need to find some before the first pull. No one has them... Its an odd size.

Yes it does logan!

I did do most of it laid on my back though. Wouldn't be that hard.
