New Exhaust

[nighthawk2106]

So i went down to my local shop here in williamsburg, ohio. an talkd to a friend of mine about getting an exhaust for my truck. we put the truck up on the lift an brain stormd for a few an i came with this. I'm going to be running dual 2.5" inch piping into a custom "X" pipe then into a Dual 2.5" inlet magnalow muffler then 3" out the back to 5.5" double walled S/S tip. i"ll get pics as soon as i can. The Complete Exhuast system is going to be S/S so its gonna look sweet, it comin from the cat-back, so it will elimnate the two unnessary resonators. I hope it sounds good. Well it BETTER anyways.....

Edit:

I'll have it done in less than a week. so pics will be up as soon
as i can.

Wow, that sounds like a pretty niec setup. Can't wait to see the pics.

Are you going to be using press bent bends or mandrel bends? Sounds like it's going to be a good system.

i wish someone close to me had a mandrel bender :thumpdown:

i want do a custom setup, but i dont want press bent pipes

 

[nighthawk2106]

whats the difference? im not sure but it might be the one where he slides the pipe threw the machine an the hydralic thing bends it i havn't seen it but i can ask.

 

[flyinbryan]

mandrel is smooth bends that dont change the diameter of the pipe

kinda hard to explain i guess lol

 

[project-c2]

X pipe for an X Runner, sweet.:biggrin: Should market them and call them TRD X pipe exhaust for 05^ X Runners. LOL

 

[nighthawk2106]

yeah the diameter of the pipe isn't going to change so it is a mandrel bender. an im waitin on word for the x pipe i might just buy one an have him modify it, or have him make one from scratch don't know yet.

 

[X-Rizzo]

Which Magnaflow muffler are you puting on it?

Mandrel bend looks like the picture below. Notice how the diameter of the tube stays the same throughout the bend.

 

[nighthawk2106]

yeah thats it. it self feeds the pipe as it bends it so not to krimp the pipe to sorta say. an its just a 22" Magnaflow flow muffler polished. (2) 2.5" inlet (1) 3" outlet.

 

[nighthawk2106]

i'm pretty sure this is it. if not its d a m close. the not directional as you can see
you can use either end as an inlet/outlet.

How come you don't go true dual?

 

[Stevenredx]

How come you don't go true dual?

i was wondering the same thing? :hmmmm2:

 

[nighthawk2106]

kuz there is only one spot on the side skirt for the exhaust. an i think it would look like s h i t! Oh an its my truck! lol J/K! no but seriously it would!!

 

[XDsm]

00yota4X4 ran a true dual setup exiting out the stock location. Like you said it is your truck, I was just thinking out loud that if going through that much work on the exhaust with an X-Pipe why not make it dual all the way back:dontknow::top:

 

[nighthawk2106]

idk. i think it will breath well enough with what i got, it doesnt look to bad i guess, but i don't like the angle cuts an its just not me guess thats the best reason.it doesn't look very clean there's pipes going everwhere idon't think it looks very attractive.
