You have regular exhaust, just no muffler? Do you want true duals, or just a Y pipe, for the dual exit? If just that, not much. Depends on what size tips you want, I do say to get stainless steel, they cost a little more, but last a lot longer.

yeah no muffler, i cut the muffler and put some piping there. I was thinking about getting the y pipe for the dual exit. I was thinking the price would be 220?

Yeah 220 sounds about right.

Dual exhaust is pointless on stock truck. You will lose power.

Dual exhaust without an X pipe on a stock truck, you will lose power. If you add a X pipe or H pipe to help with the scavenging and stick to 2.5" pipe with a straight through designed muffler, you won't.

I don't think he's worried about power,to be honest. I know I wasn't when I got mine, but again I plan on engine mods!

Most of the scavenging is done in the headers/manifolds. An x or h pipe does nothing, but can cancel unwanted tones in the exhaust.

Unless you're getting turbo or supercharger you don't need it.
