Exhaust system on Ebay

Saw a 5" Diamond eye on ebay for 425. Wants 80 for shipping!
The header says 5" and the body of the ad said 4". I asked the seller about it and he said it was 5". I wasn't aware of a 5" Diamond Eye, you guys?


eBay item #7974248164 - Aluminized 5" Performance Exhaust 99 03 Ford Diesel

Ask the seller a lot of questions when buying on ebay. I was looking through the 5" exhaust systems on ebay and saw that in the description that it was only 5" after the muffler.

There are several different 5" systems out there. Most have a 4" down pipe and then 5" muffler and pipe after that. Ken posted that they have a 5" here in the motorhaven store for 379.00. not sure if that includes shipping but you could have a real live person\company to call if there was a problem.

Plus, as a supporter, you get a discount at motorhaven.com. And Ken will make sure you are taken well care of.

I'd rather go through Ken. I know he can be trusted beyond any doubt whatsoever.
That's what I'll do.

But just for grins, here is the ad:
This is a Diamond Eye 4" Aluminized turbo back exhaust system. It comes with a 4" straight through high flow muffler. It does include all of the clamps and hangers. We have tried several different exhaust system and this is by far the best one we have found. Take a look at our feedback to see other customers comments on this exhaust. It will lower your EGT's a maximum of 300 degrees. Add up to 15 Horsepower and 30 ft/lbs of torque.

Keeps stating 4" but he wrote and said 5" as in the header of the ad.

I think the title was a mistake. I don't think diamond eye makes anything larger than 4". Diamond Eye Performance
One thing is for sure, you can never go wrong dealing with Ken.

I just spent the last 30 minutes really going through Motorhaven, I didn't see any 5 inchers. My understanding is that the 5" has a deeper growl than the 4", that's what I want.
Some come with the muffler you can turn around to change the sound of the exhaust. I'm wondering just how loud it is without a muffler.
I just wish I could hear the difference with and without muffler and the difference between 4 and 5 inch after DP.

If anyone has the link for 5" at motorhaven, please paste it in.

Mike, the seller on ebay insists it's 5 inch.....
Hmmm, a bit shady to me...

Summit racing has good prices on exhaust also, I just got my 4" 304 SS today, only cost $510 shipped and came with a polished angle cut tip. They also have a 4" aluminized for $299, and a 5" aluminized for $399.
