did the dealer say what would happen with the "wrong kind of exhaust?" most guys/gals here run all different kinds of exhaust. i run a dual 3" from the muffler back and it's a no name made by Jegs. magnaflow is a good brand tho. i'm sure you'll get a few more responses from this great group.

good idea Ty, but we don't want to confuse the dealer any more than he is....or do we?

thanks guys i thought the same thing when he tried to send me to there aftermarket guy the only thing that might bother me is will a weld on system effect my warranty? there aftermarket guy told me he has seen them not hold the warranty on trucks that had weld in flowmaster i think he was trying to scar me into coming to them for the exhaust

i have asked 5 different dealerships in miami about warranty issues with exhaust, they all told me that the only thing that will be voided is an exhaust warranty (for example, i have a flowmaster on my car, and my cats are rattling against something, i took it to ford, and since i have a flowmaster on the truck, no work will be warranted ....)
