Hey Terry, I'm sick of the stock exhaust it's crap quality. And it's falling off the truck again, so it's gotta go.

What does JDMs full exhaust cost? Probably too much for now, any cheap alternatives that won't be completely wasted when I go over to headers etc?

I think JDM bullet is 500 with shipping and such... I can make a mild or wild system. One uses a single dual/dual SS Magnaflow w/ built in X-pipe. It has a mellow tone just over stock. Most guys like it because it is quet down the road. It will not scare the women and children though. I can make a louder system with two SS Magnaflow race bullets like JDM uses on his. This system is more aggressive the the cops will be looking for you:D Both come with 3.5" chrome tips that fill up the hole. Prices are 300 for single muffler, 330 for dual bullets. Let me know what you decide:tu:

Ok Terry, set me up with the dual bullets ASAP. As I said, the stock system is falling off the truck again and I can't for the life of me find the weak spot this time.

It's rattling again, the incessant buzzing just like before when my muffler jumped off the truck of it's own will. All the clamps seem tight, but it's definately leaking there is soot on pipes where it should not be.

If possible I'll pay you however much it takes to do them BEFORE FRIDAY! The last thing I want to do is go out to Ennis and blow my mufflers off at half track. :flaming: :nono: Any time during the day is good as long as I have a little warning, I'll just call in with "car trouble". :banana:

I am on it:D The bullets come out of Houston. I can probably get them in a day. They have aluminized in stock it is cheaper but does not have a show shine like SS. We will plan on Thursday or Friday:tu:

Not sure, I know my Mavica FD-88 takes MPG's w/ sound.. Once these burn in and quit smelling, LOL they will get louder.

I have my 386 rwhp dyno run on tape, don't have any way to convert it yet to get it online though. Maybe you can vid me running at Ennis? Probably not going to be impressive but at least it will be a real-world sound test hehe.

This change has negligable effect on power right? I've read that the restriction is further up the chain, so changing mufflers doesn't do much/anything power wise.
