Stacks (Should I or Shouldn't I)???

[tURBOdIEZEl]

run a search on "stacks parts list" for all the things you will need to construct your stack setup

Thanks y'all. I'm going to stack it. Do you have any suggestions on what exhaust to go with?

How about both?

Have you read the thread on the exhaust cut-out?

You could run a cut out into twin straight stacks and with the flip of a switch back to quiet stock system. Maybe cut the stock tail pipe back a little just enough so its not showing.

Stack Pics

These are all my stack pics.....





PICS





Word to the wise- very loud, high maintinance, and expensive.



I left mine tall for that "Extra Cocky" look but I think it helps keep the soot off of my white paint. Bugs are a pain in the butt to keep off of em but that should be expected. I have had no problems with heat buildup with the covers on top to hide everything. No, that is not a huge toolbox - I add a piece of diamondplate to the rear. It keeps everything from sliding underneath and getting close to the pipes. This summer I will pull the toolbox out to polish and will take pics of the pipes.





Parts list:

-4" downpipe with 5" flange

-5" flexpipe

-5" spilter

-5" straight pipe

-2 5" elbows

-8 5" clamps

-a couple brackets, bolts, and smashed knuckles

-2 5" chrome stacks



Total cost with box was about $700. Took around 5-6 hours

Okay Fellers,,, I have a few questions regarding my stacking project: =\

Here is what I want: 5", Dual, Clackers, fit behind my gull wing toolbox. I pull a Travel Trailer (pull behind not fifth-wheel) from time to time,,,

Here are my questions:

**Do I want them above the cab, cab height, 45-degree cut, bull horn, straight, other, remember I would like clackers... .

**Am I gonna repaint my trailer alot black, little or who gives a dern - YOU HAVE STACKS!!!

**Do I straight pipe or go with aftermarket muffler, what suggestions do you'all have for a muffler? Remember, I have to keep my interpreter's hearing intact... ...

**I like the looks of Catoiler's rig, seems easy to install also... but no clackers... (see above. )

Now don't all answer at once... but give me some input. I have to sound very smart, soes I can explain to the wife and be convincing. Thanks Fellers!

I've seen and heard Scrappy's truck in person. Sounds as good as it looks.

i plan on a single on the pass side. it will be a month or two, but i need to find a place that will sell me a black stack or a non chrome stack and i will heat coat it with black... . chrome sucks to clean.

stacks

Bmoeller already put a pic of mine in here, just look in my gallery.

I have run a entirely new exhaust, with a partial 4" downpipe to 5" straight pipe all the way to the back. it was loud but tolerable with the stock turbo. With my B1-04 the truck got MUCH louder, it is very bad pulling a trailer on the interstate. I am not sure about the black stack but you could get chrome and spray Dupli-Color's chrome tint on it, I do't know if it will take the heat or not but if it doesn't work you can always have it black ceramic coated.

I put on a Dynaflex resonator (5" in/out). That will help a lot. Killed the drone, took the edge of the sound and deepened it a bit.

I will have a black one tomorrow!It is a 5" off a 990 cat :-laf
