Exhaust

I have a 2001 7.3 that I'm putting the 6637 mod on and I'm going to replace the exhaust and add a DP tuner. Do I need to run a 4 or 5 inch exhaust?

Thanks

4" exhaust is all you need. Think about getting a set of gauges before you put the DP on. You need to monitor things with the DP.

Have fun.

Alot of guys here run the 5 inch but the 4 inch is sufficient.

Where is the best place to get gauges? Which ones?

Thanks

Clays a good source , I got mine from DieselManor, everything in the kit for a complete install, no running around for anything. This is good if you never put in gauges before..

Good point Mike. I got my gauges from the same place, and had everything I needed in the kit.

Even extra parts... Trying to spread the wealth around a bit. I'll be getting something from Clay when he gets it so he's next.
