save your money. i got the sido kit a couple of months ago. i did not like the sound the muffler produced. too quiet. the fit was great though and install was a breeze. tailpipes fit great and i didn't even have to jack up the truck to fit the tailpipes over the axles. i ended up changing the muffler to a force automotive sido dumped. got a sound clip on my sig. check it out. hth.

I'd say the only thing to look into is the sound. Exhausts are easy to bend up, and I'm sure they've done their research for fitment, so it comes down to how the exhaust sounds and whether or not you like it.

It just arrived

My exhaust arrived today. Will be installing it on Sat. Didn't really realize how much bigger the 3" exhaust is over stock exhaust. Looks pretty simple to install. I'll keep you posted if you're still interested.

I am interested as well, but I was goin got take a different approach. Was going to use the mandrel bent pipe from the summit kit and just swap in either a flowmaster or magnaflow muffler.

The only thing is the fitment with the tow package

nice

I couldn't wait until Saturday, so I did it Friday eve. Took 2 hours total. And my spare tire still fits, even w/ my towing package. The install was a breeze, it sounds awesome. Very little droan at about 65. Nothing else.I was a little nervous because of the price. No need. worth alot more than I spent. I would recommend this to anyone. I wish I knew how to record the sound. Any help with that. Ive also posted a couple pics in my gallery of the kit.

The kit comes w/ 24" tips, but I installed 18's instead. And you're right about "waking up the beast", ho-ly crap! I'm probably gonna end up w/ a ticket if I can't get control of myself. I bet the 3" single sounds pretty good too. It will definitely help it breath.
