Hey all,

I'm just wondering how much difference there is in EGT drops between 4inch and 5inch exhaust systems. I'm just wondering if the 5 inch makes a huge difference in EGT drop. Also, does anybody run a stainless steel exhaust? I know I've had stainless tips on gassers and they've turned "gold" because of heat. Will a stainless diesel exhaust do the same thing? Thanks guys!

I suspect that unless you are generating really high horsepower numbers, there will be negligible EGT improvements. Bumping up to 5" otherwise is just a substitute for Viagra.:D

:funnypost ...):h Anyone run a stainless system? I figured they would go from stainless to gold due to the heat?
