1995 C/C 4x4 Exhaust and Tuner?

I'm planning of going with a 4" exhaust system. Do you guy's have any preference on turbo back exhaust systems? Like for example; RBP, MBRP, Banks, Gibson, Magnaflow or any others?

Also, any impressions on the Superchips tuner?

Getting ready to do the intake today

Thanks

I installed the Tymar intake & 4" exhaust (non-SS) last year & am quite happy with it. I tried my dad's SuperChips tuner & found it to be a nice addition, but went with the Edge Evolution tuner (same price) because of the real-time display and the English text for error codes.

Another vote for Tymar! I would save your money on the tuner and get a multi pos chip. Beats the tuners hands down!

Sounds like the Tymar is a good system. What does the non-ss system cost?

Dabigtow, what do you mean by "English text for error codes"? Does it actually tell you what the problem is?

I wouldn't mind a chip, but I really like the idea of seeing the error codes.

Installed the intake today. I can here the turbo alot more and seems to rev quicker. What do you do with little sensor that plugged into the side of the OE. airbox

chip gets you custom tunes for your specific truck. tuner gets you generic tunes that may not provide max performance. get a chip in a week, a tuner in 2 days.

With my chip I can switch from mild to wild in a instant, while a guy with a tuner is sitting the side of the road turning his truck on and off programing.
