Very cool. Thanks for putting those up.

Looks like they might be worth the money.

I thought I had read that they were going to be $1500 for the slip joint/stainless 309.

Ya, that's basicaly correct for the entire setup, but listen here......a little birdy told me he may be doing a special on the up pipes alone and to me the up pipes are where the most gains are at.

It is a lot of money. I guess I haven't priced out what factory manifolds and up pipes cost to get an idea.

But I guess if you can replace the restrictive factory pieces for freer flowing, stainless headers and uppipes and see true gains like that then they might be worth it. I guess it would also depend on what you're doing with your truck. A racer or puller might not find these as useful because they seem to help more down low but us normal folk could see some benefit to them..... if you can afford the tab.

Anyway...that's my $.02 on it.

If you want that extra kick for street racing, towing and everyday driving, do the up pipes and call it a day. Bang for the buck, it's the way to go.

get in touch with RickDlance on most any of the Duramax Forums. He makes headers and up-pipes for DMax

He's the one makeing them for TxC. It's TxC's design and specs, RDL is the one make them and neither one of them would not put their name on them if it was crap.
