Aftermarket exhaust..2001 CTD - 03/02/13 08:14 PM
Whats the best option for these? I have installed many different ones on customers vehicles. The 4" is what I am looking for. The options are just dizzying... Which are you running and why?..
Thanks..

I have run both MBRP and Diamond Eye 4 inch aluminized exhaust systems (sans muffler)on my previous trucks without any issues. Both fit and function well without a lot of drone in the cab.

I just installed a Dynomax 4" cat back on my 05 today. Took about 10 minutes once I had the old stuff cut off. Pretty much sounds stock though.

You can get them with a polished tip.

I just put a Diamond Eye 4" stainless system on my truck today. Top notch, and affordable.

I still have the stock factory exhaust on my 98.5 24 valve. I like the way it sounds and have thought about changing it out but have wondered if I really will see a performance improvment other than exhaust note? Have you guys noticed any difference in performance with the bigger exhaust systems on your diesels?

There is little to be had as far a performance goes until you get some serious fuel added and a larger turbo with a 4 inch outlet. The factory turbo is the bottleneck.

I run a 4" mbrp on my 01. Couldn't beat the price, got it from jegs because I needed it quick... but some ebay sellers are cheaper. It's about 16 months old, 2 winters and drove pretty much daily. Exhaust almost looks as good as new still.

Just lost the tail pipe on my 99 eclb 24v stock engine and turbo,not planning on modifying it.Planning on getting the MPRB 4 inch from turbo back kit without muffler.I understand lower egt's ,but will I lose low end torque? What about drone?And the common price at jeg's and summit is 379.99.Any places cheaper? Thanks

Installed a Diamond eye 4" with muffler on a 2000 CTD, aluminized, was $250 shipped to your door, installed and sounds great to me!
