Those are made by RickDLance. Very very nice piece of work, as is typical of Rick. Rick doesnt think they'll sell well, but I disagree...I think theres a lot of stockturbo LB7 guys out there looking for help with exhaust.



I know a few guys here in RI that will want them......keep the LB7 stuff coming.:thumb:

Got the down pipe on today , well 20 minutes ago to be excact :D , i can say i was sceptical on gains , but so far the SOT meter say 20-25 hp . This is on a stock tune truck also with no fuel added to it . I def say its is worth the effort spool up seems to be improved , it takes less throttle to get the truck moving , and with 35" tall tires and 20" wheel it is a added bonus in that dept, and the power feels to be increased the same through the RPM range . I didnt take any pics because i was in a hurry but fitment was good and bolted right up like the stock peice . I dont have an EGT gage in that truck because of stock tune, but i would have to think the EGT's would be better after such a flow increase . If anyone has questions let me know .

Interesting news. Makes me wish my pipe would've worked. Ah well, can always try again.
I am curious, though...wouldnt the downpipe/frontpipe Vband connection now be a major restriction? Seems that it would be, since it necks down pretty severe from 3.5", then back out to 4" in teh exhaust.

It would be pretty easy to get rid of that v-band if some one wanted too , my DP was 3" so it didnt neck down much at all .
