Yep, currently have the in front of the tire side dump...

4inch turbo back... 1 45* bend... and dumped through a 5inch tip...

Not loud in the cab at all...maybe the difference between s/d and obs?

I like it when they cut a hole in the hood and have about 16” of pipe sticking out straight off the turbo!
Be sure you get rid of the cat, I have seen several trucks where they kept the factory exhaust and just cut out the muffler and cat and welded a pipe back in their places. The muffler shop here charges around $75 parts and all to do that and it sounds real nice plus it drops egts pretty good, near 200 degrees on my buddies 01.

Mine is out behind the rear tire, but instead of at a 90 degree angle, it comes out at a 45. That way I can still smoke out peds. and I don't have to listen to the droan of the straight pipe against building and such.

AlabamaFrog, thats a great way to go, especially on a budget. I`m istalling cat and muff delete pipes instead of welding in case I want to change it or I need for insp. etc. I travel out west and some of those states like CO. and CA. are very strict when they hear a loud exaust. Have a good one.

Just curious....why didn't you just replace it with a straight pipe and sell it to someone in California or wherever they have to have them?

Actually, I've never seen a cat on a Superduty but I believe they exist....just not with the thugs I hang with......
