Catman, yes it straight. 3" downpipe to a 4" cat delet pipe I built. The rest is all 4" to the base of the stacks which are 5". It's the loudest powerstroke I've heard around here that's for sure. I have to say, your pics were one of the motivating factors in me getting them, thanks man.
Blue moose, I wrote on one of the pictures that is was a cool morning start up. I've had alot of people ask me if the are real, so I took some pics on a cool morning just after start up so people could see the smoke coming out of them. I need to change my glow plug relay and just haven't gotten around to it. So starting it up cold puts up some smoke. And since I don't have a chip/tuner it really doesn't smoke much under hard throttle like Catman's does.
Heaterman, I keep coffee cans in the tool box. If I even think it's going to rain I put them on. I honestly don't think they would take on much water but why take a chance if I don't have to. I park under my car port when it's at home. So yeah, I worry about rain but not enough to wipe the grin off my face when I'm hammering on it.

Easy man, I still haven't told the wife how I paid for the stacks. Even though I built everything but the stacks and clamps, I still spent $240. Wait till that visa bomb drops first. Even though I'm the sole provider for her and our triplet boys, I still don't want to **** her off too bad.

My wife loves the trucks with stacks and nice mods but she don't like the price tag that is stuck to them.

I get the feeling she is going to try to steal my '05 from me when it arrives in a few weeks though!!
