Nate's the guy....buy from HIM!!! Best deal anywhere.

Yes, 409 is actually better than the shiny stuff. It also takes heat cycles better than the shiny stuff - which can lead to stress fractures. I don't care about impressing the grease monkey under the truck (that's me anyway!). It's the last system you'll every buy.

There is a slight drone with the 4" turbo-back magnaflow system when towing heavy in the 60-65mph range as you build boost for slight inclines in O/D and locked up. It's not bothersome though.

Fitment was on the tight side by the front passenger side spring rear shackle but easily fixable. If you can handle a sawzall cut off saw, some sockets/ratchets you can change your whole exhaust. Best if a friend helps to hold the downpipe on the turbo while you align things below. Work front to back and keep everything loose. Then go again front to back tightening along the way checking for clearances. If you're really slow it's an hour or two. Can be done faster.
