how did you not notice increased drone. and dump it after the axle. makes a big differance.
Because it was dumped before the axle with a turndown... So only like 8" past the muffler. How tf you gonna notice that?

And ya I'd rather do over the axel but then would need to find a cheap 3.5" tailpipe to buy

Ya but fuck $140 for a tailpipe, that's more than I paid for my muffler, turndown and y pipe. Then I'd just be cutting the end off anyway and then get a tip

How much do you think it'd be for a midas or something to just bend one up

I'm taking my cousins system from his old '00 ecsb sierra. Two 10" subs, box and amp. I have the stock bose system but with upgraded door speakers. Isn't there something fucky with adding a sub/amp with the bose system?

Also changed my trans filter today without blowing trans up

Little bit of research shows all I need is an in-line converter wired up to bose amp?? I don't have the premium (Y91) Bose

You just wired it in normally and all was well?

Edit. Seems a lot of the issues with adding shit is from people trying to do it with the factory head unit. I has aftermarket so maybe (hopefully) it's a cake walk

You shouldn't need anything extra. I put a system in my dads old duramax years ago and he had bose with an aftermarket head unit. Just hooked up like any other system with 0 issues.

So system is installed after spending about 18hrs on it over three days.. Some snags included but not limited to: learning how to do it as I went, wiring 4 speakers in series into a two channel amp, the glue giving out holding the wood to the big amp, breaking plastic clips, shitty wire routing, trying to re use the pre cut used wires, making a bunch of new 4 gauge powers & grounds.

Got it fully all put back together, and two speakers didn't work. Got an rca splitter and now it's all good and peachy.

Far right side is what fell once we were ready to hook everything up

Final. It's a pretty shitty install but I was so sick of working on it I didn't care anymore

And aside from my turndown rotting off, my one stock pipe rotted off the Y. Didn't feel like messing with new parts and exhaust a week before I leave so just threw the wimpy stock back on
