The cheaper quality stainless will split when it is stretched. The good stuff will stretch just fine.

thanks, good to know. Can I assume the Maggie tips are higher quality, so they shouldn't have a problem?

Just keep up on maintaining their surface. Mine looked like brushed silver after a year of un-cared for abuse. They lost their shine and were rubber & tar coated. I'm sure they could have been saved but it would have taken a ton of effort.

Got my goodies, just waiting on the tips now, should be here monday! Super excited to hear it now. I went with the hi-flows with the o2 nut, not sure if that's an issue, I guess if it is worse case scenario I plug it off and have new nuts welded on further down. I don't see any problem, although I just noticed right on the box it says "pre OBDII, 1995 and earlier" or something...

SEXY! Gonna be LOUD! Those 94136s are the loudest high flow cat magnaflow makes! Get ready for the death drone zone at 1800-2200 RPMS!

I won't mind the drone...truck only goes out once a week or so, and average drive time being 30 minutes or so. Every once in a while we take a trip in it, but the wife prefers the Edge for travel.

about to upload the current exhaust vid, crappy cell phone quality...need a digital camcorder or something soon, but it's an idea, and a comparison for later.

I know it's a crappy vid, sorry for the quality...if I can get a better one before the new set up I will, but I rushed this for comparison of what's to come.

SO I got a better quote, I supply the hi flows, x pipe, 4x14 magnapacks, and tips, he'll install using T304 ss, smooth bend, dumped out like in post #21 (KR-Texas' Raptor) $400. So I'm gonna schedule for early next week, I'll have my comparison videos up hopefully by midweek, I'm stoked! I'm happy my whole exhaust will be stainless.......and hopefully sound mean as all hell

very good price , also after it's done get some high heat clear rattle can paint and seal the welds just in case, so rust won't happen
