78, you truly are a genius. The A/C ducts are already there so there's minimal work! Just make sure to keep the windows rolled down... Or were you serious and meaning place the stack where the rear, vertical A/C duct is?

Not feasable. The ducting isn't large enough and would cause unbelievebly high EGT's.

High EGT's OH no! I forgot about that- I guess it cannot work. Im pretty smart, but this was another bad idea. I have so many bad ideas, I wish I were not even born. I hate myself HATE

LOL!

I could actually go for a short stack through the hood. It doesn't reduce the functionality of the truck at all! Considering where the turbo exits it would be possible on the passenger side too. Atleast for us 6.0 guys.
But screwing up the bed of a useful truck is just so ricer like. Specially the guys that go with like dual 8" stacks. I think it just looks goofy.

How about strait out the front grill? Then you can roll coal on yourself.

I remember seeing a GN turbo with the exhaust out the fender like where the F250 emblem would be on a truck.

Can't go threw the cabin because the exhaust threw the roof would leak water. Strait up out of the hood would look kinda neat for at least a day or two.

Snortin' like a bull... I like it. Or turn them up out of the front grille to look like tusks.

I do kinds like the idea of venting out the fenders but you lose you window-rolling-down ability

The possibilities and the insanity are endless...lol

I personally don't think there is any way to make them not look stupid on an Excursion, unless yours is modified with dually fenders and dual wheels, then having it run out and up next to the body behind the passenger doors like a Humvee wouldn't look bad. I really only like stacks on duallies through the front corners of the bed (as long as there are two), or on a flat bed in the same location or outside of the bed behind the cab.

Just curious because on an F250, the term "gay" sure isn't the first word that comes to mind.

in general. I can think of 2 other terms "brokeback mtn" or "redneck compensating for small *****". I wouldn't use the term "retarded" because it is an insult to mentally challenged folks.

Satin black dual sidepipes, instead of running boards, turned out in front of the rears would look badazz.

LOL!

I was just curious because one time, while behind a lifted F250 with dual chrome stacks, my mom, a little, 82 year old Japanese woman, commented that she thought the stacks looked cool.

That floored me. I couldn't stop laughing when she said I should put a set on my truck.

While I'd never put a set on my truck, I do think, if done properly, they look pretty baddazz.
