Since I bought my truck, I've been kinda concerned about the 'kinks' and constrictions in the stock dp. While putting the truck up on jackstands, I had a chance to take a close look at the pipe. dang!! That sucker looks crushed in a couple of places! I ordered a 3" mandrel bent dp from JetCo, and pulled the old one off. Wasn't very hard - four bolts hold it to the exhaust pipe, so I soaked them in Deep Creep for a couple of days. All four came off with a ratchet. The V-clamp that holds the pipe to the turbo outlet was easy, as well. The new dp arrived, and I decided to take some pics for comparison.
