Worth the wait. Dyno dons

Everything fit as it should. It was money well spent.

Re: Worth the wait. Dyno dons

I will regret not having gotten a set of these headers and exhaust. Looks like everything fits up nicely and tucked away. And I’ll bet that Borla sounds amazing. Had a single in dual out on a V8 Dakota years back and that thing sounded great! Good stuff!

Got a set on my 91. Also happy with fit and spark plug clearance. May consider selling my SLP's to get a set for the IROC lol

Re: Worth the wait. Dyno dons

My SLP's don't have the spark plug clearance like Dyno Don's do. Sadly, Don retired.

Re: Worth the wait. Dyno dons

Can you still order the complete system if he is retired?

Re: Worth the wait. Dyno dons

No headers, y pipe, or exhaust systems are being sold at this time according to TDS.

Is there anything else out there like this? I would like to essentially have this same setup.

Now that's a great fitting exhaust system.

Hey there! I would love to hear how this sounds! How are you liking the Borla?

Re: Worth the wait. Dyno dons

I made one similar at least the catback part. Doesn’t sound bad at all, mine was on a turbo 5.3 and I just pulled it yesterday for my hawks 4” catback. With a turbo it removed some of the sound but it was a nice deep tone. I can’t help you with the headers and ypipe etc but I’ll prob be selling this catback soon. I also ceramic coated the intermediate pipe and the tail pipe. I haven’t started the car with the 4” but I did like the borla proXS, I run the same muffler on my 18 ram with the 5.7 Hemi and it sounds good.

I ordered from TDS on May 15th, today I received them and had them installed in about 15 minutes. Didnt have to do a thing but take out a couple spark plugs, slide em in, bolt up and reinstalled the plugs. Literally the easiest thing I've done on this whole swap. So yes you can still get them and they were in stock and shipped FAST!
