    Installed my Magnaflow CAT back today. Being the long bed, it includes the resonator which "tunes" the sound perfectly. Some "throat" some "hum" but not drone, and some "guttural yah this thing rocks" sounds without the 4bangercivicsoundslikeshit undertones.

    I tried to record the sounds at different RPMs but that has to be done under load and at speed, so I have to figure out a remote mic that avoids the wind noise.

    I like how the tail pipe is flush with the body so it doesn't look like a dodge ram asswipe.
    I like how everything tucks in under the body tight, so nothing hangs lower than factory other than the tip of the tip, and I love how it sounds.

    Guys at @GotExhaust hooked me up on a TW price...another great day to have a Taco

    Does this give the possibility of having moisture appear in the headlight assembly? I know there’s moisture in my tail lights of my work car where they added flashing lights to it and that always made me wonder.

    Looks pretty good but why not just add a TRD skid plate. That hides all of the front underbelly and helps smooth out airflow under the truck. Of course there's the $$ involved in that so if you're on a tight budget I can appreciate that.

    Looks disproportionate. Need a camper shell or soft top on there to finish the look.

    Thinking about doing this as well. Took the Taco off road and I kept worrying about tearing it off.

    Installed a KC cyclone light under the hood. Need to clean up some of the wiring but I'm pretty happy with the light output.Hoodlight-opm.jpg

    Did you do the single light or double light kit? If single, think it gives plenty of lighting?

    I guess it's in the eye of the beholder. I think the skid plate covers up quite well and looks pretty cool while being functional. I had one on my Sport as well and never saw a difference in mpg with the DAM off. I don't do heavy duty offroading either, but do use my trucks for hunting, fishing and getting to those somewhat remote areas. I feel better driving across a grassy field with the skid plate on there, although it's never rubbed on anything.

    Single and I supplied all of the connection materials- didn't buy a kit. Light is pretty bright and works for what I want which is being able to see stuff under the hood. Of course two would be twice as bright, but this was quite a bit less expensive than the two light kit.

    I'll get a picture in that dark and post it up.

    I was thinking of doing the same, just hadn’t decided yet. It’s be great to see the output. Thanks!

    Put on some tracks from proline and feet/crossbars from a local craigslister. Drilling the tracks was a bit scary but worked out great.
