    like the title says, looking into possibly doing an exhaust on my 2012 off road dcsb, have an idea in my head on how i want it, and maybe i can get some guidence on it, would like to get more bark out of it, too damn quiet, its a truck, not a sewing machine!!!, i live in ny if it helps, first, read something about loosing 2 of the 4 cats, would that 1, void the warrenty, 2 still pass ny inspection if you know by any chance??? second, is it possible without too much $$$ or hassle, to do a dual outlet (one on pass side, one on driver side by the flaps), third, which muffler is stainless (i live in a ny, so salt in the winter would kill reg steel) and still has a nice rumble, and barks when at around 2500-3k and up, fourth, if i do a dual outlet, would it be better to have each bank have its own muffler (true duals i believe my supervisor calls that), or have a y pipe on each side of the muffler and only run one muffler... any other ideas, please let me know!

    hey brian....your best bet for performance, in my opinion, would be the urd mk exhaust. a bit pricier, but you get what you pay for. 3" tubing, single out. you could match it up with their y pipe as well.
    i just ordered their intake, long tube headers, y pipe and maf cal. i dont want my truck to be too loud so ill install these then choose an exhaust or just a muffler.
    check em out @ urdusa.com.
    hope it helps.

    Ur truck will run like Crap with actually true duels without an h pipe or x pipe cuz Ur back pressure will be different in each bank. There are several systems catback one in two out for our trucks and then u can get the muffler shop to delete the resonator on each side in front if the y pipe, not the cats the front two are cats the back two are resonators. And that would be easiest, cheapest, best for sound and performance combination imho

    Also on that dyno max, does that keep both cats/resonator, or does that loose the resonator?

    A cat back will just bolt up to your current y pipe with the exception of hanger for duels, Ur resonators are between Ur y pipe and cats and won't be touched unless u tell the shop to removed
