thanks for the reply
I’m thinking of going with a similar setup but I was looking at their single inlet/exit 4” muffler. I believe the one you got would flow better once open though, especially if I make it a true dual exhaust. Are both 3” openening straight through once open?
Impatiently waiting for the install
lol

Yes, it is straight through with the baffles open. You can pretty clearly see if you skip to 5:20 in the video. I'm getting very anxious too get it done.

I’ll probably go that route too since I’m trying to get an exhaust with the least amount of backpressure possible for a turbo kit I’m building. Should sound good!
I’ll add a pic of my truck that I bought a couple months ago

I've considered looking into having them re valved for a better ride, but are living with them for now.
The handling with them is fantastic almost no body roll.

Yes...if you get the DSC option they have fast and slow adjustable dampening. I think however they are valved for heavier trucks because even at the softest setting the ride is very firm. In the picture at the lower right you can see the adjustment *****. A few people have asked me about the rub mark on the hose, that was from shipping.

This all has me thinking because mine on stock rides like absolute caca and I don't know how to fix it. Thinking Bilsteins will be too firm.
