new memberr new truck

Post by badandy2003cc4x4 »

:D Hi new guy here. Just got a 2003 Sonoma sls last night with 17000 miles on it. It has all the standards plus 3.73 locking diff, trailer hitch, equipment group 1sb. I realy like the truck paid 12000 for it plus my trade in at 7600 so realy 19600. I chose it over a still new 2003 frontier last one on the lot. the Sonoma had beter options a little biger and most important more power. :thumb: cant wait to mod it want dual exhaust from cat back will probale do custom with glass packs any sugestions on pipe size this engine will respond to well.

For duals.

I like the 3" cat back all the way out single. Best for these with cat and highflow muffler, IMO.

The cat and precat offer plenty of back pressure, at least that is what I was told.
