The Full Race downpipes are AMAZING!!! I got the regular ones with no coating. The combo of those downpipes and a new tune have literally made me fall in love with the truck again. It is scary fast and sounds awesome. I have tons of pics and dat to run through before i post my official install guide and review but I'm working on it a little every night so hopefully it will be done soon. Once thats done ill begin work on doing some videos as well so people can get a taste of the sound this thing makes. As of now I've got about 350 miles on the system and i can't get enough of it.

I can't wait to take it back out to Moses Lake later this summer!!

Here is the item description for the rack
Go Rhino 4330001 - Thunder Series Sport Bed Bar GO RHINO

Here is the best deal i could find right now but i would highly recommend doing some additional searching because these prices are super high. I paid $199 for mine from streetsideauto.com but they don't seem to be offering that price right now

Cant wait to see the progress on your truck bud.

hey on that downpipe, what is your honest opinion about that flex section? thats the only thing that has me questionable...like will it ever leak? im not familiar with them at all but no other company uses em. but i KNOW that full race has the top of the line products.

EcoBeast - the install looks great, give that pup a back scratch for us

Allen K- flex sections are used to take torsional loads off the exhaust pipes. This often makes fitment better, installation easier and long-term durability improves for both the manifold/turbo and the exhaust plumbing. This is why Ford (and most all other OEM's) use a flex section on any turbocharged vehicle's stock exhaust. Our flex is made from high-grade 321 stainless and is something we use on all our high-end turbo kits. The only reason other company downpipes dont use a flex is they're expensive. we worked very hard to keep the price reasonable and our quality second to none

sorry for the threadjack OP

Nice build. It is good to see there are some dedicated vendors who treat people well for the F-150 market.




Are you still happy with the AT tires?


Has the ride quality maintained over time?


I currently have a 2001 Toyota Tacoma that is mildly built. I saw the photos early in the thread with quite a few Taco's. With mine being such a little truck, with an I4 motor, once you add a lift, it gets pretty stiff as far as ride quality goes.


Again, nice build.
