Benefits
The 3-inch exhaust piping and included downpipe are designed to support exhaust flow for off-road and competition builds. Changes to the exhaust configuration may affect exhaust sound, throttle response, and backpressure depending on the vehicle setup and calibration.
The aluminized steel option offers a cost-conscious material choice, while stainless steel provides greater corrosion resistance. Factory hanger mounting locations and pre-welded hangers are designed to simplify installation on compatible trucks.
Installation Notes
- Professional installation is recommended.
- Reuse the factory turbo outlet gasket if it is specified for the installation and remains in suitable condition.
- Minor pipe-length adjustments may be necessary depending on cab and bed configuration.
- Align the complete exhaust system before fully tightening clamps to help prevent unnecessary stress and exhaust leaks.
- Verify fitment and connection requirements before installation.
