FYI the SPD y-pipes does not replace the cat.

You'll be very happy with the improved performance with the throtle responce. When I changed out my y-pipe the first thing I notiiced was the elimination of the 1-2 second hesitation of the trannie down shifting when you jumped on the gas. The truck has more power going up steep grades while towing the 10,000 lb 5th wheel. Increased the gas milage by 2 miles per gallon.

Awsome cant wait , the truck has 128k but still runs like a champ , has Intake , and a 3" short dual exhaust with no mufflers at all exits right at the frot of the bed , plugs and coils changed a year ago or so !

I also changed the gears from 3.73's to 4.30's. Changed the air filter to the Volant, which made a difference also.

I had the made a modification like a guy called Stan who cut the front off the stock housing and added a K&N filter which I did but it looked cheezzy.
I also cut 4 - 2" holes behind the side of the front grill to allow more air into the engine compartment area.
But the big change was the Volant system....(I'm not a sales men for them). I've been working on the least expensive up grades to get more power. This one was something like $230 or something like that. The filter is much like a K&N filter. Here's the thread link of my change..
