I put a video together for you, and of course anyone else that wants to hear it. The RPM above idle is 3k, just to give you an idea of the sound. This is the link:

Wow! A huge THANK YOU for putting those photos together and a video. That is a gigantic help in understanding what I am looking at here. I am very interested in this kit, but just would like to know a little bit more about it.
Do you have any regrets about this kit at all? Were you wishing it was a little louder? I want virtually a drone free kit, I assume this uses your stock resonator? Just curious, what would you sell the aluminized kit for (if it's for the 5.5 foot bed supercrew)? I'm sure shipping to Michigan would be outrageous lol

If you look at what some of the Mustang guys are doing, they are removing the resonators and then adding back a separate surge pipe that is attached to the headpipe of each muffler, but then runs back along the muffler where it then terminates (dead end). IMO, as far as cobbling, try to think of it as plumbing- the only thing that really matters is that it does not fall off, you get the results you want, and the exhaust ends up at the back (or side) of the vehicle. I would reinstall the resonator.

This is the link: http://youtu.be/LWxaZ3qbwwk The Db level in the cab went up about 3 Db after the installation. You will hear some sound in the cab when you hold the throttle down but if you pay close attention, most of what you hear is behind you, not really in the cab. IMO, the cab is the same noise level cruising as it was with the stock system. I can still use mySync (phone and commands) with no problem. As far as paint damage, my installation has been installed for a few months and several thousand miles. Just be sure of the clearance; at least be able to slide your fingers through without touching. Here are a few snaps (above I guess) of the aluminized system (I purchased both types, want to sell the aluminized- only installed for about 1 month); the stainless installation looks identical, and the tips are the same for both.

Initially, we (myself and Gibson Performance) had some opportunities with getting the headpipe right for my truck (hanger location on front of muffler), but we got it worked out. I would like to get $275.00 for the complete fit- tested kit, you cover shipping. I can tell you what that would be if you send me a message with your address. I would also like to see a picture of your frame rail where the front muffler hanger is attached. My truck actually has two locations; this makes a difference with which headpipe I send to you.

So, I recently bought my truck used from Carmax and it came with aftermarket exhaust. Sadly, there is no company logo or name on it anywhere and it does not appear to be custom built so I'm gonna try to post some pictures of my pipes on here. I know for a fact that they are TRUE DUAL pipes. And that they are aftermarket all the way up to the headers. That is all I truely know about them. The reason I am wanting to know what company makes them is because I eventually want to put a Series 10 muffler on and a CAI. To repeat myself, there are NO LOGOS anywhere on the pipes or muffler. Please PM me if you may know what brand they are, thanks.
