Re: eBay Long Tube header install... pics inside

Here are some pics with everything buttoned up... As for the sound, I kept the Flowtech Terminator mufflers and 2.25" tailpipes I already had, and they sounded great with the factory cats and all. Now, with the new headers and 'dummy' cats (I guess they're supposed to look like cats, but they're basically just resonators - perforated inner tube with packing around them) the truck sounds just as deep at idle, but a little more raspy. At WOT and anything in between it used to be pretty throaty, but now it is flat out INSANE. Borderline obnoxious, seriously. And coming from someone who loves loud pipes, its almost too much. Flowtech claims that the Terminators are the 'Bad Boys' of mufflers and now I see why. With converters in front they sound ballsy, but with long tube headers and no cats, they are flat out nasty. In addition to the Blackbear tune and exhaust, my only other mod is a K&N FIPK.
