Exhaust Components

[noobtruckguy1]

Hey peeps, noob auto guy here.

 

I own a 2004 4.8L Ext Cab Silverado, I want to put a good exhaust system on it, but I can't find any websites that list the Exhaust System Upgrade components.

 

Here is what I would like my truck to sound like.....

maybe something like this also, kinda what he did with the muffler and tips in this one....

 

I would like to use the Flowmaster 10 Series muffler, no tips. What exhaust components would i need to buy to install this system? I live in Texas. Moderately priced would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

avguy.

On the cheap, you could get the FM muffler and put it in place of the stock one and just put a turn down tip on it.

Just replacing the muffler won't mess up any of the other stock exhaust components?

No

No

 

so thats good for one single muffler one pipe off the headers.

 

What if I wanted dual exhaust. I don;t mind buying the stuff and having someone put it on, just to pay for labor.

 

What would I need for dual exhaust?

Depends how you want to do it. There are a number of different set-ups for dual exhaust.

 

- Run a SI/DO muffler

 

- Run a SI/SO muffler and add a y-pipe after the muffler

 

- Run true duals from the headers with a muffler on each pipe. It's best to use an X-pipe in conjunction with this set-up.

I would like to run true dual exhaust.

 

What main components would I need?

 

Muffler?

Extra pipe for running pipes under the truck?

 

What about pipe size? any difference in size of pips in/out of muffler?
