If you have a straight exhaust, it probably already has an aftermarket round downpipe.

I have the DiamondEye 4" aluminum exhaust system on my truck. I wanted stainless steel, but that's a different story. Downpipe goes into OEM catalytic converter, then 4" pipe through the DE 4" muffler, and 4" tailpipe exiting at the stock location behind the rear wheel.

Another entry for "previous owners do the darnedest (dumbest) things". Straight piping the exhaust behind the OEM flatsy downpipe probably netted them ZERO performance gain. That money would have been better spent on the downpipe, leaving the rest of the exhaust stock.
