Hey guys, this is my first post here. And i have a question I'm hoping some of you's can help me out here. I've been in the works looking for an exhaust for my '17 rcsb and I simply can not find one i remotely like, except for trucks that are ext. cab and crew cab. I see multiple videos of Corsa exhausts, which are by far my favorite, and a couple other brands, but they don't make any for a rcsb? They make them for every cab/bed style except the rcsb as far as I can see. My main question is could I possibly order a certain cab/bed configuration and basically trim the straight section? Or are they all THAT much different? Any input and help would be greatly appreciated.

Lots of the catback systems rely on cutting the front pipe to length for different wheel bases. Length adjustments usually are in the installation directions.
I'm using a Pypes system that deletes the resonator, and it looked to me similar systems all trim the front pipe. The resonator back (Corsa?), systems may be wheelbase specific or need custom fitting.
Good looking truck, similar to mine,

Thanks for the input! I kinda assumed it would be as simple as trimming the mid section for most of them. But I figured at least someone on here would have some sort of experience with at least one exhaust. I think I'm going to try the SPD downpipes and maybe the Corsa or something similar. I just hate to spend the money on an exhaust that pricey and have to almost fully modify it. Might be better off taking it to a local exhaust shop and having me build one out of similar materials and try getting my hands on a Corsa muffler/resonator. Love the looks of your truck btw. The wheels look like old factories. Looks awesome.

It is really hard to get a small V6 to sound good. Do not go larger pipe than stock or dual pipes or it will sound like a ricer Honda. Try to stay 2-2.5" with the resonator in place and a large free-flow si-so muffler, then pipe it all the way past the rear tire or even under the bumper. The more of the smaller pipe it has, the better it will sound. Magnaflow makes a large free-flow that sounds ok with a v6.

I get a kick out of the "ricer" label. It means nothing but a raspy short tailpipe exhaust, a V8 sounds ****ty with the same. Straight 4 or 6, v4 6 or 8 all sound similar no matter the country of origin biggest difference in the firing order. A conventional V8 sounds the way it does due to sequential firing of paired cylinders. A flat cranked V8 sounds very similar to a V6. Don't like a turbo V6 sound? Good for you, but realize others do not share the thought.
You can get a deep tone without rasp or drone from a large diameter exhaust. And turbo motors do not benefit from turbo back system restrictions (there is no scavenging after the turbo), so loosing torque is a non issue. Just do not expect much performance "gain" from large diameters till you do other modifications.
While I am not a fan of Corsa exhaust systems (appearance and design do not fit my intentions), the OP did not ask for that type of advise. KM

I am not talking about a 'fart can' tailpipe. I am speaking of the entire exhaust.
