Flowmaster Force II installed....
Greetings!
For those interested in cat-back systems:
I ordered a Flowmaster Force II cat back system from the online store and installed it yesterday. The kit (#17222) comes with a 50 series "SUV" flowmaster and duals out the rear (tips are stainless). The kit installed very easily, the hardest part was removing the stock system. All parts are included (hangers, etc.) in the kit.
I opted to tack weld all the pipes together, including the tips. Standard C clamps are included if you do not want to weld anything and are perfectly adequate. Anyone should be able to install this system (I would recommed a buddy and four jack stands however..also you may need a hack saw or small propane torch to get the stock system off, especially if its rusted).
Anyone looking for a decent priced kit with a deep throaty sound, and easy install, BUY THIS KIT FROM THE ONLINE STORE!!!!
My truck is SuperChipped, and let me tell you, the combination of the SuperChip and this Flowmaster ROCKS... Definately a huge power gain.
With an AirAid FIPK kit, SuperChip and this Flowmater kit, I would guess easily another 25-35 HP gain (this is seat of the pants guessing here..), but this big old 4X4 with the 330 MOVES OUT my friends, and it sounds GREAT!!

Thanx,
Thats what I've been waiting to hear. I was debating between the Borla And Flowmaster systems the $250 difference in price for stainless is not worth it for me in So. Cal. I will be ordering from Roger at the online store soon.
