Don't have it now, but I just ordered one. After researching it appeared to be the cleanest looking set up.

I have it ... very nice setup! Just don't use the teflon tape, use paste.

I posted some pics in this thread:

They are no longer sinsiter btw, it's strictly diesel. What's that kit run? They're all pretty much the same thing. I've got the dieselsite one.

Yeah that's a good deal, and it's got the bling factor. MKM is a daughter company of Sinister which is now Strictly Diesel, who formerly used to be ITP diesel... I can't even keep up.

No, Itp diesel merged with Strictly diesel. The products they manufacture that used to have the itp name they changed to sinister but they had to change the name again cuz MKM's products use the sinister name, so now strictly diesel products are called Driven diesel products. If it wasnt for me living 10 min away from strictly diesel i would have not known that

Installed!

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

Damn thing leaks!!!
Word of caution to all...
Other threads stated that these kits used teflon but now they went to pipe dope as they should.
Kit came w/ fittings already pipe doped up but they still leak!!

Remove their garbage and redo prior to doing install
