New FloPro Exhaust/Zero Drone Update Video/pics

I've been dealing with a new exhaust with Magnaflow (12198)SIDO, Resonator Delete, Dynomax (24215) Dual Chrome 3 1/2 Tips. The Drone was getting ridiculous, I also felt the truck lost power with the straight through design, even the MPG got worse.

Took the truck to Kinney's Muffler in Watauga. Kirk, looked at my system and offered 2 solutions. First was to add another longer round muffler, but no guarantee of course if that would solve all the problems. Second, was to let him install a True Dual Custom exhaust. He used the FloPro #726 which is a 22" Dual In/Dual out Muffler ,(no resonator); quad Raptor style stainless steel tips that exit behind rear wheels.

Result? I'm more than totally satisfied. The sound is deep, not raspy at all; the look is really nice (too late for pics; I'll try to work on that soon). The power is noticeably increased; better MPG with driving mostly around town after the install, and most of all there is Zero Drone.

Here's the video and some pics.

Sounds like exactly what I've been looking for. Would you mind sharing the total cost info?

550 for the exhaust and labor
450 for the custom made stainless tips.

Might seem high for some, but (1) I'm not gifted to do that kind of install and (2) I'm so happy with the results, I've got zero buyer's remorse. It's perfect for our truck.

Seemed to be quite the opposite in the video. Extremely brappy. (ya, I know it's not a real word but you have to admit you know exactly what it means ) Glad you like it though because that's all that really matters.

True that! The vid's are good as they might seem, are never real close when you are using a cell phone camera especially. Kinney's Mufflers has a YouTube channel and he does his with a Video cam and that makes a huge difference.

Plus, my wife (who was driving) loves the Brappy, Bubble sound anyway..
