Muffler Delete - Geno's or RPM

Geno's is about $20 bucks more. Is it made any better?

Also, I assume I will need two clamps that do appear to be included with either pipe. Is this correct?

Got mine from RPM and had no problems. Shipping was very fast.

At the time, Geno's was about double the price and only included a couple hangers that you can buy anywhere for a few bucks.

Genos. 2 days ground from GA to FL. No problems. Left CAT on -- still very loud. Sounds cool w/6 speed.

The pipe I got from Geno's didn't come with clamps, just a hanger. I reused the stock clamps.

They were supposed to throw in one clamp that had a hanger welded to it. That goes to the back end and hangs from one of the two rubber hangers in the back..... The front end I just re-used the clamp that was there and didn't use a hanger....

Do you like the sound?

I bought mine from Piers.. went to a local truck muffler shop and bought 2 stepped clamps.. I did have to make a hanger for it though.. Without the hanger the exhaust would droop and the cat would rattle on the cross member.. a clamp with a hanger sounds like a great idea if you don't have access to a welder..

Pipe fit great and was here in 3 days...

I bought mine from Geno's. As some have said it did come with a hanger/ clamp. I just reused the factory clamps. Caution if you do just use them get them really tight, then tighten them some more. I lost mine in town when i was driving that same night. So I went for the for sure clamp via mig welder and clamps now it shouldn't come off without a grinder. Oh and it sounds great and aligned perfectly.

I didn't realize that thanks - I'd rather support this site anyway! The Prices are good too - $52 for aluminized steel & $61 for stainless. Is the $9 more for stainless worth it? What is the rest of teh stock exhaust made of?
