I haven't got the newer sensor retaining clip things so I can't install them yet lol. My rss system never worked I think the speaker is broken so I need to fix that anyways.

mounted an amp to see how it looks. coming out exactly how i wanted. next up is trim panels. thinking about using neo mags to make it removable, but may just screw it on with tan screw caps. i really dont need to access anything behind it, all the wiring will be routed through the side near the spare tire location.

Removed rear bench preparing for new carpet installation. Would love to put buckets back in its place but I can't find any. So I'll likely just keep my bench.

So lately I haven't been happy with my exhaust sound. I have no cat and a flowmaster 40 single 3 in dual 2.5 out. Its super loud and I liked it until recently. Its sounding more and more raspy than when I first had it done. I think it could be due to 2 things. 1..the muffler 'broke in'

Or 2..the muffler is clogged with crap because I removed the cat..not sure.

Either way I found a video of an f250 that is straight piped with no cat. Thats what I'm doing. I know its gonna be louder than it was but the guy on YouTube said that his got deeper. So we shall see. I still have my stock cat and the flow master muffler just incase. Ill post a vid soon...hes almost done welding in the y pipe in place of the muffler.

i'd watch it if it wasnt private!

i personally love the V10 sounds. mostly because it does NOT sound like a V8. its different, i like things alittle different.
