: 6X22IN exhaust tip and great customer service!
BlueOx03 01-27-2004, 10:30 PM When I bought my Summit Racing exhaust system I got the biggest tip they offered, 5X18". It started looking a little small a while back, so I went to looking for a bigger one. After looking high and low on the internet and I found a huge stainless steel 6"X22" tip with a 4" inlet. I found this tip at ITP Diesel on a Sunday and went ahead and ordered it. I received conformation of the order and a back order notice. Within hours I received notice that the tip was shipped straight from the manufacturer. i thought that was good. A week later I didn't have it and I'm bad about waiting so I called ITP. I got the voice mail and left a message. A couple hours later I received a phone call from Dennis, the owner. I talked to Dennis for a while, I'm long winded. Anyway ITP is pretty much centered on the Powerstroke engines, so most of us have probably never heard of them. They also have an expanding line of products for the Duramax. I didn't really look at all he carries or pricing, but i can tell you that his customer service is five stars in my book. dennis seems to be comparable to John Kennedy in the Ford world. ITP looks to be another good vendor in the ever growing word of diesel performance with some familiar products and some different products, worth a look anyway.
I received the tip today and installed it, man it's huge! I love it. It has a good quality appearance to it and the fit is great. Really not much else to say there. The sound is a little different, lower than it was before, I like it. I took some pictures of my dirty truck with the dirty old tip and the new tip. Enjoy!

The Summit 5X18 tip, keep in mind this thing is very dirty, it usually looks sweet.

BlueOx03 01-28-2004, 10:42 PM Mike, I already have a guy working on building me a pair of 10X32 inch tips out of billett aluminium so 7s would be a waste of time...
D5 I hear there are a lot of places in your area that will enlarge you pipe for the right price, but the question is is will it work??

Mike L. 01-29-2004, 10:02 PM There is an issue with scavenging gain and loss with tail pipe diameter. We are looking for the (Moan Effect). Too big, and she screems, too small, and she laughs. Just right, and you get the moan.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/HiHi.gif

I'm looking to lower the tone of my JK 4" exhaust, this may be the ticket.
Is the hanger holding the additional weight OK or did you add some support.
