Well that does make a lot of sense. I didnt realize they were geared so high.

Can one of yall do me a favor and post a video of a wot pull with the camera on the tach? When I got WOT from a stop the truck almost bogs down but not really. The rpms just rise kinda slow until about 2500 then it pulls hard. Is this normal or should I talk to MPT about this. I have had my tunes for almost a year and thought it was normal but I'm just being sure

I'm running stock manifolds and front cats then I have a rear cat delete, magnaflow Y pipe, and then a 14 inch magnapack with the single stock exit.

I'm thinking about redoing it this summer to 2.25 inch piping, an x pipe, magnapacks, and 45 degree dovetail exits

Why 2.25, are you going to TD's ?

Into the X?

Yep I figured 2.5 TD would be to much for an NA 5.4 and I'm not superchargeing anytime soon

Yep it would be stock manifolds and front cats then idk if I would switch over to 2.25 before or after the x
