MBRP 4" Exhaust Question

I'm thinking about buying a MBRP 4-Inch Turbo-Back Aluminized Exhaust System for my 7.3L powerstroke and I would like to delete my cat too. I was wondering, if I buy this exhaust system, would I need to buy anything seperate to delete my cat, if so could you tell me what I would need?

So If i buy this exhaust system, I can safely remove my stock cat and replace it with a piece in the aftermarket exhaust system?

O and another question, is MBRP's muffler delete pipe the same as a cat delete? Does the cat delete come with MBRP's 4" exhaust system as I mentioned earlier?

Just install this system as is. Cat is deleted, if you want to delete muffler you add more pipe in place of it.

Will I get the "takeoff jet" sound with this exhaust system because I really want to be able to hear the turbo wind? If not, what would you guys recommend for this sound? I have also looked into a 5" MBRP turbo back exhaust system, from what I hear, with the 5", you can hear the turbo wind much more. What is your take on this?

That will do it, plus a wicked wheel in the turbo.

you need a good intake (6637) and the 4" is perfect, you will notice alot of HP gain & great sound

Ok I am pretty sure that the turboback system for our engine automatically is a cat-delete kit, My truck did not have a cat and when I have been looking around at the MBRP's exhaust kits I am pretty sure that the 6.o's are the only ones that even give you an option to delete the cat or not. So in short the kit for the 7.3L is a straight exhaust and in your case would be a cat delete and every thing is included in the kit for all the wheel bases and cab config's.

But if you really want to hear the turbo wine than get the cool duels in 4 or 5 inch, but 5 is pretty much for looks not much of a performance gain over the 4" unless you want to eventually push some massive horsepower in the future. I wish I would of had the money to do the coolduels, but with the single outlet on the passenger side you dont really hear the turbo much except in a tunnel .

Thanks guys, I took your advice and ordered the MBRP 4" turbo back exhaust system and the Banks High Boost Compressor wheel. Can't wait to hear it!

Don't forget that you need a good intake. What year is your truck?

the 6637 is very popular here. Some people swear by the AFE but its expensive. The 6637 is an inexpensive way to accomplish a tymar Intake, same big filter. With that big filter you get a ton of air and you can here your turbo great.
