I asked about a 3", I was told he would need a mandrel bender which his shop doesn't have....he said the tone will be alittle deeper but the Magnaflow muffler will open up the system and let the engine breath...I will still get the towing performance I want but a quieter sound which is okay (keep th...

I believe I will call Hypertech back this afternoon and explain what I am doing to them again. I am towing, not racing. See if I get a different answer. I had a tranny cooler put on as soon as I bought the truck...I also had coil over shocks put on the back so the truck wouldn't squat as much with t...

Well, Jet 180 thermostat installed, HPIII tuned, FIPK in place...I just found out my Magnaflow catback system is backordered until the end of July, that bites. But, I should do okay pulling the camper without it. I ended up bumping my shift points up 200rpm 1-2, 400rpm 2-3, and 500rpm 3-4. As per hy...

Living up here in MN we don't see too bad a climate...some days will see mid-90's...but those are good days to stay home in the air conditioning anyhow. Any thoughts on what the Magnaflow Catback will do for the truck??? Is it going to be too loud or have a nice rumble?? I think I am going to order ...

My bad, I had the boys at the Goodyear dealership install a tranny cooler, coil-over rear shocks, and a set of Cooper HTs last fall. I am a little nervous about the Magnaflow system...by reputation they have a quality product...I am looking to get a little more torque but DO NOT want that loud "Fast...
