Re: Check out the big pipes

Not bad for the size of the tips. I used to like visible exhaust tips but anymore I prefer to have them dumped and out of sight.

Re: Check out the big pipes

I guess I'm not one of those that likes big exhaust then - those make me think of the giant coffee can-sized (usually single) exhaust tips hangin out the back of the average under-rodded rice burner. And OH the annoying squeal their sewing machine engines make... Sorry, just my 2 cents, which won't get you a cup of coffee anywhere these days!

Re: Check out the big pipes

i agree with that approach also - prefer out of sight - or one of my favorite locations is a slight angle down so that it is just barely visible poking down below the bedside about a foot back behind the rear wheel. But hard to find a pipe dude that can do that custom work, have attempted a few times and it turned out semi-goofy, so I usually tend to dump in front of the axle. One word of caution with that approach, if you have a cap on the bed and carry dogs out back - make sure your tips are outside the confines of under the bed - I had a buddy that killed his whole herd of hunting dogs by leaving them in the truck bed with a VENTILATED cap but he had an exhaust leak under the bed. Enough got in to kill em. He was crushed. There, now that I've Debbie Downered everyone.... sorry.
