Not my thing, but clean install. You need some night time pics

 

This isn't twitter...

You should check out Fly Eyez Designs

Drive shaft shop can build you anything you want...for a price

 

The aluminum ones look like a neat option, not sure I'd go with a carbon fiber.

 

I hear they're pretty good unless you're building a dragster or like to dump the clutch a lot.

 

Yea I almost bought some shorties yesterday.

 

Our engines need a tune for stuff like this to take full advantage, because of VVT right?

 

Yea I know. The sound if the shorties is cool too. I would do a 3" exhaust, but as Miguel learned, the 1GR-FE likes back pressure

 

3" is a lot. When I looked into this on my 3400 V6, 2.25" was good for lightly modified, 2.5" was better for boosted engines.

 

I'm keeping my 2.5" anyway

 

The first time I tore down a 7.3 power stroke pulled on the crank nearly shit my self around 90lbs

 

A dyno baseline before mods then after and tune for gains after. Tho it will mostly be torque gain not hp. For the newer 5.0 there is 42 fuel maps and intake maps per cylinder they have a version of VVT-i.

 

How much does a dyno run cost?

 

thanks man! looks like headers, MAF CAL and a y pipe are in the future..

 

Not just VVT. Everything is computer controlled and counter dependent. You change one thing, you are effecting many other parameters.

 

Back pressure isn't really the most important thing. Exhaust velocity is. I'll see if I can dig up some info...

 

Here you go, dropping some science on you. Back pressure in exhaust:

I agree but I want to maintain or increase mileage. The 1GR likes back pressure for efficiency anyway.

 

I'm just excited guys! Oh subbin doesn't do anything? My bad, I thought this was youtube.

 

Just letting everyone know sears tools is having 50 percent off all tools this week. I'm getting a steal on a huge tool set for the truck .
