Now... should I start another ruckuss with me Running a K&N and how everyone is going to jump me for that.....

haha
everyone is their own on what parts they like. my stepdad loves his k&n filters, but i put a 6637 filter in his dodge to cool things down since he didn't have a cool air intake and is running an aftermarket fuel plate on his 12 valve. if you like your K&N then stick with it if it works for ya, but i just don't understand it b/c oil and dirt makes a big clog on your filter, but you can clean it where as i can't clean my 6637 filter i just have to spend the $30 to get a new one

I'll have to find that one. I'd rather have a MagnaFlow as I've installed some of their stuff before. I could only find the MBRP for the OBS truck. THANKS!

I would suspect that others had better experiences with this product, but I was not a satisfied customer.
The aFe 4in turbo back exhaust kit fits perfectly. The only thing I did different was mate the top half of my Banks dp w/ the bottom half of the aFe dp. I did this because the Banks dp has an EGT bung coming off the turbo and the aFe does not But the aFe dp goes from 3in at the turbo - 3.5in halfway down - 4in at the bottom. The aFe exhaust hangers and pipe fit was perfect. I originally installed it with the straight thru muffler but took it out after a few months. It sounds much better w/out the muff.

Well, I picked up my stuff from NAPA this morning and 15 minutes and $80 later I was done. The fit was snug and it's not going to bounce anywhere so I don't need anything to hold the filter down. Like everyone said, I can hear the turbo when it spools up. Now, if I can keep my foot out of it, I'll see about the gas mileage!
