Side Exit Exhaust Pipe??

Does anyone know of any vendors that sell a 4" side exit exhasut pipe for 2004 6.0 PSD? I have the 4" SS MBRP system, but looking to change the exit to in front of the rear wheel (just to be a little different than the stockers out there).

I know I can have a custom one made, but was hoping there might be one off the shelf.

I know many on here have done this....were these all custom installs?

Thanks!

I know I don't have a 6.0, but look in my gallery for the side exit I built.

You'll have a really nasty rear tire/wheel if you do it. Just and FYI.

BuickTurbo - nice truck/exhaust. That is what I'm wanting...but didn't consider the soot on wheel/tire that Mark @ DPPI mentioned. Maybe I'll reconsider...still would be nice to have though.....I'll bet you get a little deeper sound out of it also since there is less pipe before exiting...

The soot has not been an issue. I wash it maybe every week-week 1/2. The only time I noticed discoloration within the wheel was after a couple of hard launches and some highway take offs. Normal driving has not clouded the rim.

Oh yeah, a 6.0 with a side exit like that......I think it would shatter windows from the turbine.

Thanks Again!

...any 6.0s out there with a side exit? Comments on sound? I'm hard of hearing and my MBRP isn't quite loud enough :-)

I have not done it with my 6.0, however, I did do it with my first truck. A 78 Ford with a 400M. I put duals on and had them turned out before the wheels. It sounded AWESOME. Very deep and throaty, as a V8 should. It was not TOO loud though. Neighbors could hear me coming, but no worse than anyone else out there. When my exhaust needs replacing I will consider doing it to this truck too.

Black cloud diesel used to have a kit. I spoke with Dave a couple of days ago about it. They don't offer the kit anymore but they can order the parts, just individually.

6.0 side piped

I bought this truck with the exhaust piped out in front of the rear duals. The only mods are the K&N air filter system and 4" exhaust; with side pipe.(for now)

With that said, My tires/rims are not sooty. Dusty, but not sooty.

Since I have not heard a 7.3 with this set-up, I cannot compare, but it does remind me of a Tweet with a nice rumble.
