Stick to well-known names... I'm in the middle of a lesser-name brand dual 4" turbo back install and it's been a nightmare. Buy one you know is quality, even if it it costs a little more.
Would you care to tell us which one, Chase? I'm not asking you to bash a supplier, but that's teh kind of details that might just help a fellow member (like me). Also, as you've been struggling with it, has your supplier been able to help you resolve things (just one more of those pesky little details)?
The brand I ordered was/is Diamond Eye. I'm sure it's a good kit and the tech at Diamond Eye has been very helpful, but man what a PITA. I did call the supplier today (Diesel Power Products) and the owner there said that most duals are a real PITA to install. Diamond Eye has sent me an extra pipe at their cost because I was sure the one I had was wrong (and the new one was different). I've bounced several emails and photos off the tech there and he can't figure out why I'm having such a hard time. I'm not 100% convinced the kit is junk, I think it has more to do with the duals. However, guys that have ordered MBRP duals have said it went in with no trouble. Installer error is probably most to blame
Chase, ups guy comes to the house. Big smile open up box where,s the downpipe, called the company, bla bla bla we'll call you back. ........Waiting .........Waiting. Call them back, they said thier looking into it. i look on instructions and said it,s for gmc duracrap. Finnally call mbrp customer service . Thouroughbred calls, thier sending out right one. Fed-ex picks up gmc exh. Except for the 2 days of waiting, great service from mbrp. Only thing i forgot to mention is i had to cut 6 inches off the midpipe to make it fit, i got 6.5 bed. Other than that, aok. Diamond eye, never heard anything bad about them. Good luck on the new pipe.

Do a search... I couldn't find any bad raps before I ordered- yesterday I found several on this forum. I just hope I get it worked out. Out of town all week so I don't get to mess with it again until this weekend. What a pain in my a..
You will come home and find in you flowwerbed. weeehoooo,gitrdone. And if you don't have tips make them with the wrong pipie. I,mtrying to be creative. Like arnold sweseneger said-DO,DO IT DO IT.DO IT NOW.....Well tommy needs sleepy, want me to fluff you pillow. (cris farley)
Thanks for the well-stated details, Chase. I hope you get it worked out soon. I appreciate your overall demeaner in sharing what you did, too. Reps to you, man.

I have a mantra for situations like this- "Don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things!"
I bought the Diamon Eye 4" ss single and it fits like a glove. I'm happy with the quality.The only downside to the system is that the muffler is realy quite. Might try a muffler delete pipe soon.
