    Towing - Straight Pipe

    Anyone towing extended distance with a 4" straight pipe turbo-back ? Looking for some feedback on interior noise difference from muffler being present. Daily driving is just typically me going to work - no trailer - so I'm not concerned with noise. During towing though, I don't need family...

    Cat or Muffler delete ?

    Thanks. Website does not call out a "dual exhaust muffler delete pipe"; only a single from what I can tell (could be my cough/cold medicine's fault :silly ):D . I will call tomorrow.

    Cat or Muffler delete ?

    Large plumes of Black Smoke clouding-up the view from the rear view mirror. If it does smell different, I haven't stuck around to know :roflmao :laugh Seriously though, I haven't been able to tell the difference...:sly

    Cat or Muffler delete ?

    Gotta agree with Shadown Grey about the whooshing of the turbo at idle. If you have the High Idle Setup, it only gets louder and higher pitched :cool: , the Beast remains quiet until you put your foot into it while driving. Kitty is gone :sweet which sounds great. I'm running the MBRP 4"...

    12V air compressors?????

    http://stores.ebay.com/TNT-tools-n-things has a PUMA compressor with 100% duty cycle that should work fine if the budget is tight. Not quite as compact as the one BAMA referenced, but depends on your application. You could always pirate the parts you need. Good luck.

    I've found the combination...

    In my honest opinion, cabin noise has not changed at highway speeds at all though I haven't heard it under a load (pulling trailer). There is a nice whistle at 8-9psi but the radio is off and you're listening through the wind noise and engine background symphony to really hear it at 70MPH...

    Ditto Sattwood. WIF light ealier this week. Drain - pressurize - drain - pressurize. No more light - all if good.:sweet

    I've found the combination...

    To delete the muffler, or not delete the muffler, that is the question....:cool: I've been peeling through a host of sound clips and can't make the decision either way. I don't want to anger the neighbors, but love the whistle while cruisin'. Should the muffler go next ? :wave

    Diesel fuel prices....

    Sound East Michigan - anywhere from $2.52 to $2.65 (in high rent neighborhoods). Initially I associated higher pricing for diesel (less refined than gas) due to heating oil industry competition (this was all following Katrina and damage to rigs in the gulf) but I've given-up trying to figure...

    Another Block heater ???

    Try Ebay - found new for $25 including shipping. Install is straight-forward though a little awkward.

    I've found the combination...

    WD40 - That sounds fantastic !:hail Are you running the same combination, or do I sense the absence of a muffler ?:sly

    New Air intake elbow for 6.0

    Exactly right - anything to smooth the flow on the intake (Laminar flow) will improve torque.

    I've found the combination...

    A few weeks ago I installed the MBRP "cool duals", and while the improvement was very nice in terms of sound and throttle responsiveness:sweet , the sound was not quite what I was looking for --- lots of air rush, not enough rumble. :santa2 Ordered the "test" pipe :sly from ITP and waited for...

    A Different Exhaust Question, I Think?

    Recently installed the cool duals. Installation is straight-forward and dual pipes are nicely aligned on the exit with the stock hanger (passenger side) and the provided hanger on the driver side. All the components align and fit together nice -- better than expected with an aftermarket...

    Steering Wheel Radio Control

    I'm pleased with the convenience of the controls provided on the steering wheel and question if there is a way to change radio stations through the controls provided. Volume, temperature, fan control and the ability to switch between CD/Radio are present, but nothing to toggle to the next...

    warm up time...

    I plug mine in the first sign of frost. I apply every means of technology available to warm my vehicles (selfish motiviation is my own body warmth) including block heater, heated seats (leave 'em on in winter), window defrost set, and run the remote start for a few minutes. Add a hot cup of...

    2008 Super Duty straight from the Ford Site

    wow that 450 is freaking killer :hail :hail F450 is unbelievable - Ford has caught my attention all the way around on this vehicle. :hail No doubt high $50K, dare we say $60K with all the goodies ?:eek: I bought my F350 from the dealer's lot; but can't say I've ever seen a F450...

    MBRP Cool Duals

    I've been considering the same thing. Let us know how it works out.

    MBRP Cool Duals

    Interestingly enough, playing with various settings on the tuner (HiPo vs. Tow Safe vs. Stock) emits entirely different sound at idle, with the stock setting being the lowest rumble. To each his own I suppose. Either way - it sounds sweet :sweet

    MBRP Cool Duals

    Recently installed the MBRP "cool duals" and very pleased with the overall fit, and installation. 5" stainless tips with the angle-cut really finish it off nicely (looks like a cannon). :sweet Nice improvement in performance particularly above 30mph right up through the legal limit. I...

    Need Pyro gauge Help!!

    Nice clean installation - and the color match appears to be consistant with the instrument panel. Did you mention the brand of gauges and your source ? Thanks
