Hey fourknee,
Off the topic but how do those 130hp injectors pull with EGT's mainly( assuming you have a stock turbo) Ive got a Van Aaken and thinking about some 100Hp injectors and turning the box off when I tow.........loaded stock trailers like you.

Thanks in advance,
Jamie

Well doodah, those cab lights are for sure on my list. Just not too excited about putting holes in the roof. The way my luck is, they will leak!

Hey natlchamp2k4, my egt's don't get too high. I do have a stock turbo and I have my prob post turbo so i usually add about 200 to the gauge, just to be safe, and i haven't let the gauge get over 900. But when i am loaded with cattle with my foot in it the clutch starts to slip at about 800 degrees. So one of those is also on my list. But i do love the smoke!

if keeping the stock bed for awhile i would run the "y" inside the bed and run the width of the bed and then come up with your elbows to your stacks.

Depending I might start changing over the bed as early has next summer,and as late as next winter.Well I seen some trucks with the 5" pipe "y"in and going into the stacks,and then I seen trucks with the 5" going in to sumthing that looked like square stock with the stacks on each end.

Thanks Fourknee,
I thinking about the jammer 3's a little smaller than yours, but im gonna turn the box off to tow to save the clutch, then let her rip when im empty.

Thanks for the info

do it like mine. thats a peice of 4x6 inch steel thats a 1/4 inch thick. weld up the ends and stick the stacks on it and the exhaust on the underside and call it good. you dont need no splitter.

I know it's been done a few times before, I just CAN'T see that being good for exhaust flow...
