YOu have straight pipes correct? If so, where did you get the pipe for that and did you have to have it bent. How much did it cost. I have been running mufflerless temporarily and i am starting to like the sound. I just need to find a way to get piping to keep the exhaust fumes from the cab and so they come out the stock spot. i have mac tips i can use. I just need to know where you got the pipe and if you had it custom bent or can order them prebent. Thanks

I know that Magnaflow sells mandrel bent SS tubing. If you have a welder your set.

 

Is it already bent to my specifications or how do i go about getting it bent. will it bolt right up to my truck after the cats and come out straight in the stock location. That is what i need but am a little confused. Thanks

SS T304 is expensive. I got mine used thanks to Sir Speedy. I won't divulge the price but it was in the double digits not including installation. When it was all said and done, including 2 trips to the exhaust shop (one for install, one to adjust for my JLP traction bars....welded everything and relocated/eliminated clamps and hangers) it was about 150 out the door

 

Also, I like it and probably will stick by it. Even when I do LTs and no cats, I would consider straight pipes.

But then again, I'm a mullet/flannel man from Southern Illinois!!

 

did it come bent to ur specifications or did u have to have it bent. I want it to line up correctly. can i order it like that or does it have to be bent by a machinist? Where can i get it.... (sir speedy)? do they have a site. i think i am gonna go for it. Thanks for the help.

It was bent to spec for another Lightning. I bought it used.

 

Do they mass produce that part or is it custom. My question i guess is can i order one bent for a lightning anywhere or do i have to buy the pipe and take it soemwhere and get it bent. Just curious. I want straight pipes soon because i have no muffler on right now and need to know about how to get them.

I would go to an exhaust shop you trust and have them do a custom setup for you. Should not cost that much and you can get the fit as you like. To my knowledge, no one makes a Lightning-specific straight pipe catback.

 

Cyntaxx, you have a mullet man>??? I wanna see some pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -Mat-

 

I dont think you'll like LT's, no cats and NO mufflers..

I run LT's, no cats and magnaflow straight-through mufflers and it is LOUD.. VERY LOUD...

But it sounds great, and I have no problems giving up a little torque for the extra HP..

how do you guys think LTs with HF cats would sound with straight pipes instead of a catback?
