sounds like PMS has settled in 
I have the MKO ..the first one you listed..very nice set up..good guy to deal with and he is also one of our sponsors..I painted mine black with stove paint to make them last longer..so far so good..its been on for little over a year..only prob I had was the washers for the hangers would jingle at idle..I put some RTV to the washers and it hasn't bothered yet....

So is yours the 4"? I don't know if that company has a 5" or not. Do you know what size stock is, I haven't looked yet. Did you notice any diff in performance? Should I number and list my questions?

in the cab windows up it is quite..light footed on the go peddle its not too bad..you hear the whistle and flutter of the turbo wheel..but you can make it noisy up in the higher RPM's...but it is not as loud as a car with headers and duel exhaust..i think the price drops like 25 bucks if you dont get the muffler.. gives you a little bit more for the shiny tip..or for the 25 bucks get the muffler just incase you dont like the strait pipe(im sure you will like it though)..then sell it if you dont want it..

I'm the next step down from straight pipes, I have short baffles in big radius pipes. Just a nice deep sound. I don't want my truck too loud, but I want a nice tone. I like a throaty sound.
