kofire Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Hey guys I am going to be upgrading to a 4" straight pipe in the near future. I am just looking for some ideas on where to make my exhaust exit? I like the look of the RBP tips so I will most likely go with that I am just not sure where to stick it!! My old chevy had it in front of the rear tire, it looked pretty good but it was a small tip so it is not a fair comparison. What have you all done with em? under the bed? out to the side? Pics would really help, Thanks!!! Quote
Richard Cheese Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 do you have a lift? sometimes the lift components make it tough to route the exaust the way it was stock. I have seen a lot of lifted trucks with the way you explained it before the rear tire. i personally like the exhaust exiting behind the vehicle with the tip out past the bumper so you dont get soot on it...but that is just me Quote
kofire Posted September 26, 2009 Author Posted September 26, 2009 Yeah it is lifted, there is plenty of room underneath. Quote
Richard Cheese Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 if you want to go in front of the rear tire, just be sure its pointing down a tad, as to not get soot on anything Quote
kofire Posted September 26, 2009 Author Posted September 26, 2009 if you want to go in front of the rear tire, just be sure its pointing down a tad, as to not get soot on anything Yeah it will help me resist smoking out ricers, convertibles, and groups of prop 8'ers standing at the corner which I am guilty of.

Richard Cheese Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Yeah it will help me resist smoking out ricers, convertibles, and groups of prop 8'ers standing at the corner which I am guilty of. in CA, there have been instances where people are getting tickets for billowing excessive smoke. I have fun doing it too....but for me, not worth the fine Quote
1BADYFZ Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Ihave a 4" exhaust straight thru with a RBP tip..I will get some pics of it coming out from behind the tire... Quote
otis Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 (edited) i personally like the exhaust exiting behind the vehicle with the tip out past the bumper so you dont get soot on it...but that is just me ^^ Same here. The straight pipe i put on was a few inches shorter then the muffler so i put a tip on to get it closer to where it originally was. No programmer so i dont have to worry about soot ... If your going to have it exit in front of the rear tire be prepared for drone... 4" < 5" tip Edited September 28, 2009 by otis Quote
Raptor0206 Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 go behind the rear tires, on my duramax the previous owner had it exit before the rear tire for a little bit and it took the shine off the chrome KMC rim from all the soot, moved it behind the tire and it was fine. Quote
1BADYFZ Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 Owe you this pic, 4" straight thru exhaust with RPB tip behind rear wheel... Quote
