Which 4" Turbo back for 7.3 Excursion?

I was ready to pull the trigger on a Diamond Eye SS 4" turbo back and then started reading about fitment issues with the firewall. I don't want to have to custom fit an exhaust replacement.

Anyone have a feedback on what fits our Excurstions correctly? I'm considering the muffler delete version since we don't need the back pressure.

Thanks!

I have no personal experience with Diamond Eye, but the ever-popular MBRP fits perfect.

Thanks Stewart, I've looked it's way many times, I suppose I'll do it again. I had just looked at Diamond Eye becasue they seemed to have a good rep, and a good price.

Have not had a chance to install mine yet, but I purchased the MBRP SS409 4" turbo back for my newly acqired 2002 Excursion after reading lots of threads on exhaust systems. Thsy also have a $50 rebate going.

MBRP here & loving it. I think we installed it last fall. Unhooking the RR shock makes the install a breeze though some more talented people say they didn't need to. YMMV. My personal preference would be to keep the muffler, I've run without it for about 5 minutes it was just too loud for us. However, ours is a DD 5-kid hauler so it needs to be somewhat tame.
