    Trying to figure out the wiring on my camper and why the it isn’t getting power from the battery.

    But I’m too dumb to figure it out. To many cut wires and shiz.

    What kind of plug does your camper have?

    Sent Magnaflow a video of my exhaust. The fitment has sucked since day one and I'm tired of adjusting it. I have no desire to pull out the hammer and bash for clearance. The intermediate pipe seems like it was bent wrong. FYI this is what two winters does to a stainless exhaust

    Mag uses low grade 400 stainless which rusts but really slowly and ever since they bought Bosal their products have been falling in quality. They weren't exactly nice to @ChildrenOfBodom from t4r.org either

    It works when it’s plugged into a generator but when I switch over to battery it doesn’t.

    What exactly do you mean?

    I'm not pleased at all with this exhaust anymore. I contacted Magnaflow last week, but still no response. It think it's weird how the back part is rusting super fast, but the intermediate pipe has wear I'd expect. I'd venture to say at best the exhaust might have 2k for miles if that. If I don't hear anything I'm going to take the intermediate pipe off and have it re-worked at a muffler shop.

    I might just get lazy and bash it with a hammer. I could order a Borla cat back and call it done. If I look at the z bend in the intermediate pipe it doesn't look like the pipe ends are level. It's like it wasn't bent far enough

    Is flowmaster any better? Was gonna get a magnaflow but this doesnt instill confidence in magnaflow. Ive heard good things about them but going cheap on metal doesnt sound that cool.

    Im wondering if maybe this might be an issue with who installed the pipe:notsure: I havent done research on this as its probabaly gonna be one of the last things I do to my truck.

    Edit pipe is cheap just read that.

    I mean for the price you pay for a magmaflow system you probably can goto a shop and have them make you one how ever you like. Just supply what ever muffler you want on it
