I was just curious if any of you had your truck on the DYNO before removal and after and what kind of numbers you saw. Any difference in EGT's?

I was curious about this too. Also, do you guys that are running straight-piped notice any additional noise in the cab? Is there a droneing sound or anything? Thanks.

straight-piped = noise, drone and just plain LOUD in the cab or outside the truck

With a free flowing exhaust you will notice a faster spool up out of the hole .... Might give the impression of more power but nothing that will show up on a dyno .... Same goes with a air cleaner setup ... That was proven at a Dyno event in CT on back to back runs with and with out an AFE setup .....
