    Anyone know about how much these typically run? Also will it sound like crap on a V6 and are there any performance gains from it?

    Lol didn't figure as much. How bout the sound? Would it go to waste on a V6? My buddy has a sweet 360R Rousch Mustang and he was telling me about it today

    On a performance car they can be usefull and sound cool...

    On a V6 pickup truck that is not and will never be a racecar...kinda stupid IMO.

    I have a buddy who has blown his to bits a few times from backfires.

    It sounds great except at the lower rpms under a light load. That video doesn't really capture it's deepness. Of course it's not as deep as a v8 but it has a decent tone.

    Mileage? I have no idea if it effects it. I rarely have it open for more than a couple minutes and I figure my mileage by the tank.

    That video is more how it sounds.

    If you want to get a better idea how it sounds unbolt your exhaust at the flange after the y pipe. Make sure to not mess up the gasket.

    Sweet, maybe I could run it like that for a hot minute as a poor mans cut out lol. Off topic but how do you delete rear cats? Do you have to weld in a new pipe to cover the distance? And could you do flanges for smog inspection time?

    EDIT: Sounds sweet as hell :D Would you be able to do a drive by at WOT?

    As far as I know that's how you do it. I've never heard of anybody do the flanges to make the cats removable but I guess it would work. I'm not sure how strict they are or if they'd see what you did. We don't have inspections down here.

    Thanks, I'll try to get a drive by video soon.

    I wouldn't. It would get annoying to have it open the whole time and having to get under the truck to quiet it down.
