Not entirely true, you just need to use the right tool for the job, a Visa card.....

well i ordered the 5" cat back with 6" stainless tip mbrp 431.00 stock down pipe couldn't make up my mind with so many different opinions here if i need to later i can get the bigger down pipe , but i think i will leave my cat for now just so i can give suggestions based on experience. and i ordered the superchip it sounded like the best thing for me as a beginner, cuz you know when i get a taste of that power ima be tearin it up.

Save your money and use it for some other mod! Cut out the stock muffler, if you want a little more sound put the kitty to sleep. I have my cat and lost the stock muffler to a 3.5" piece of pipe. My turbo spools up quite a bit faster than with the stock system. I am pretty sure that if you dyno a 6.0 with a 5" system vs. a stock straight pipe system the numbers would be almost identical! If you want a huge tip, then install a 5" tail pipe and then put on a 7" tip.........My straight pipe setup cost a whopping $60 dollars!

Oh and you ought to cancel your order on that Superchips asap and get the best tuner out there for the 6.0, an SCT......

Im 99% pretty sure that with a tuner, the 5" exhaust straight pipe vs a 3.5" straight pipe stock system there would be a difference in power, and safer with the lower egt's

Granatelli makes one for their Monster Exhaust. That's too damn big IMO.
