Doug Thorley 83206-B Performance Mid Pipe

Worked flawlessly! Lined up perfectly. Loosened the rear hangers to make a little more room. New exhaust gaskets put on, tightened manifold studs first, then the back end, hanger lined back up after that and done. PB blaster and a cheater pipe were required for the crusty exhaust nuts and bolts. With a magnaflow single outlet the truck cruises fine,(not loud) but during acceleration it gets loud. Flooring it, it has that VQ sound. And that is a personal taste. Ill drive it a while and see what i decide. Already have a vibrant ultra quiet on hand if I get sick of it.I see these bad reviews and wonder about peoples abilities. My expefience couldnt have been better. Dont forget tje never seize.

I was honestly surprised with the experience. Shipping was prompt, the items were very well packaged and the material used to make them was first class. When I installed them, however, I was upset to see that the O2 sensors couldn't be threaded into the ports because of bits of welding flash in the threads. Since my only vehicle was up on jacks and in pieces I had no choice but to pay to have a shop grind out the threads and spot weld the sensors in place. Given the reputation of this manufacturer I was very disappointed with the actual product.

Currently finishing a motor swap on a Nissan Xterra, B-Pipe flanges were broke, very rusty, so decided to delete the rear cats with this B-Pipe. Unfortunately it doesn't line up with the original exhaust but hopefully it will with the new DT catback, will find out in a couple days and change rating accordingly, but if you intend to use this with your stock catback you maybe disappointed.

These did not align properly to seal the gaskets and were too long.
