umm what to say...im 51 retired from electric field, a dedicated motorhead, mostly scooter and moped 2 strokes, outboards, other 2 strokes. This is to be my first diesel. Its a 97 c2500 with a 6.5 turbo. 2 wheel drive standard cab longbed. . it has a 4 inch stack run out from under the side right off the manifold, that im not falling in love with. so thats on the agenda.hmmm thats it for now

well I didint feel like doing the exhaust myself, so I had a local shop run 3 inch from the turbo to back bumper . It really seemed to help my midrange a lot still loud though just not as offensive . He did indicate I had a leaking exhaust manifold gasket , and my vacuam lines are all taped up and ****......so I guess ill be cleaning that up too
