Exhaust tips from RPM outlet

A month or so ago someone here was looking to buy a 4" in 5" out 18" long exhaust tip from RPM. I would like to know if it is a 45* or 15* angle cut and does it have a rolled lip? Some of their descriptions don't match the pictures on their web site. Any pics of it installed?

That is the one I ordered. Some of the guys here were having support issues with Rpm. Summit has never let me down.

Looks nice but it's a weld on. I have the stock exhaust system with isn't S/S. It could be welded the the weld would rust. Guess you could use a S/S band clamp.

got mine from rpm, was the long one, don't remenber the overall length, 18" ring a bell, to lazy to go out and measure. But it was a 15 degree and was fully rolled edge. Mine was delivered in 5 days from ordering, about one month ago I ordered it.

Clamp built into the tip with two slots cut in that clamp and it clamps down, never had it loosen, heavy duty bolt and welded on nut. I could not move it after clamped.http://www.rpmoutlet.com/tips.htm

This was the thread. I have never used them. Good luck.

I bought a 6" tip From http://www.scheiddiesel.com/index.htm > They were good to deal with.

Thanks for the info guys. That link to previous post was very helpful. Sounds like RPM = Really Poor Merchant.

I bought mine from Summit Racing, drilled 3 small holes around the end where it mounts and used 3 short screws into the stock tailpipe. Trust me, it won't ever fall off.

I ordered mine from bigexhaust.com and it was on my truck in 3 days. I used the SST strap and touched the nut with a welder. It has never came loose. It is a Magnaflow model, 24" SST rolled edge(to avoid cutting my shins ). Pics in my profile

I bought this one... It is as Florida GC stated.. 18"x 4"inlet x 5" outlet... It has a rolled tip unlike the picture says.. It seems to be decent quality and the price is right.. heck, you can buy like three of these for the price of some of the others..

Dang, no one makes any decent 5" to 6" tips
I dont want a double rolled angle cut, just slash cut, or 90*, not a fan of the double rolled edge, but no one seems to have any...

I bought my tip from Scheid, very good to deal with. I just ordered a muffler delete pipe from RPM, and had it in 3 days.
