DPPI exhaust & AFE - Diesel Forum

Well it has been hell in the making [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]. So far it seems as though that this exhaust fits like CRAP from the muffler back. Although it is dam loud without the cats sounds like a JET for god sake but I LIKE IT [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. What seems to be the problem is that the extension pipe(short) is not long enough to get the system to the correct muffler hanger. My question is do you have to trim the long extension pipe down to fit with standard cab long bed picks ups. NOTE TO DPPI send some instructions with this kit would make the headache much less. Enough complaining and to the fun stuff I whooped my brother 7.3 liter with A 70hp chip,exhaust, and AFE. All I got is the DPPI kit and AFE [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]. Because it was [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smokin.gif[/img].

I just read what Mark posted from DPPI and sorry about the rank but I didn't get any instructions w/ my kit for some reason and has been frustrating [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]. So sorry about knocking the kit it is my fault for not calling and getting help and just *****ing [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]. But so far love the sound of the kit and would not trade it for nothing.

Honkey84,

No problem on the rant, been where you were before myself and it's a major PITA for sure. You ought to try some of the race parts we have to buy. They don't even make instructions, period. You're on your own, and they won't generally help on the phone as they haven't used them and don't know what to do themselves either.

Glad you got her all installed and like the system, I have it on my 6.0 and love it too! I just got back from a race towing approx 8000 and even to the floor with the 100 HP box going up some pretty good grades I couldn't get it over 1200 degrees. I tried tobake it and it just wouldn't go there unless you lugged it soemthing horrible.

I would be interested in knowing if you ordered direct from us, if so we need to make a change in our shipping dept to make sure nothing gets out without instructions etc. If you got it from a distributor, e mail me so as to not make them look bad if you would, thanks info@dieselperformanceparts.com, or private e mail thru the site here. Enjoy!!
