What's ya'lls opinion on where the exhaust exits...in front of the tire or behind the tower? I hate that big @$$ bend going around the axle. I've seen one psd that has the exhaust coming out before the tire and it sounded pretty good.

Before the tire works for most, but not if you have a camper. Exhaust gases will get into the camper while driving. Been there done that.

How does that work? Its coming out about 3' before it usually does:dunno

I don't PLAN on having the camper to much longer. I plan on buying a house later in the year. And I'm only going to pull it one more time probably...two at the most.

Climb in there and have someone drive the truck. The back of the camper forms a very large vacuum at the end of the camper. Gases get in the door seal and what not. The exhaust at the back of the tire is low enough to allow the gases to get past the vacuum without getting sucked in.

I'll pass lol. I would suspect that to be a moving violation. Or maybe I could put seat belts on my couch and have it DOT inspected...:watchout

I was waiting for someone to say something about that. I kinda expected it did. I just know I want the exhaust pointing out to the side so I can blast away those little ricers when they aren't paying attention to their driving and have their window down.
