I just got my 5" MKO on this weekend and can only say one thing, SWEET!!! The sound is hurting my face its the best sound in the world. And to think my wife crawed right under there with me to help tighten some clamps and to get dirty with me. I think she is going to want to drive it also . Hummm sounds like we both have some PMS going on... Thanks for helping me make up my mind on whitch size to get.

When you all added your new system did you see alittle oil in the tail pipe after a few days of driving? I did use some WD40 to get the pipes to move where I wanted them to. I did have a muffler before also. Do the pipes cook alittle oil out when new? I just hope its nothing bad. Any ideas please?

Are you sure it's oil and not condensation or water combined with soot? Shouldn't be oiling there, I have no oil in my exhaust.

I know it didn't smell or tast like oil. I didn't know if there was anything in the pipe itself that would bake out when new. And my wife painted the outside black so I know its shouldn't be paint. I will go take a look again.

What a gal. I don't think my wife has any clue how fast my truck is right now. I think things are probably better that way.
