Default Getting two powersticks installed!

Hey all,

I currently have the Magnaflow 2 in/1 out with the rolled tip and the sound is not bad, but the drone is too rough for others when they ride in the truck with me. I decided to go with two classic chambered powersticks that are 26" long and have a 2.25" diameter. I wanted to have a great flowing system that had enough backpressure to give balanced performance. I'm having an H-pipe welded up in front of the two mufflers then finishing out the back with two 3" slash cut tips shotgun style behind the passenger tire. I'm extremely excited to have it all complete and hear how it sounds. Eric, at Classic Chambered, was a great help and definitely took the time to listen to what I wanted and told me what he thought the best system for me was. I'm picking up the truck from the muffler shop this afternoon after work, but it will probably be too dark and most liklely raining when i get it so probably no pictures or sound clips until tomorrow. I'll keep everyone updated as to how everything turns out!

Fletch

See my post "PowerSticks" there are pics of mine installed.
I will be deleteing the secondary cats and running an H-pipe into some 40" PowerSticks here in the near future.
I have several "thoughts"just need to settle in on one and make it happen.

Only vids I found were on the SRT8 Tundra posted to YouTube.Wonder if there are other Tundra's running these spiral gizmo mufflers ? The guy admits to having a crappy camera,a better camera would only reveal the lack of clarity in the exhaust tone when compared to a Power Stick set up.Then the price for pound would further the distance for an average consumer.

There is a thread that "clearly" proves the facts between the two.

Sucks to pay twice for less .......
