Robert,
Its real easy. :-) (what's that sound? Is that your truck screaming?) ;-)
Anyway, it really is simple. I've got some pics around here from my
Gibson install which I've been meaning to post up on the upgrades
section, but I just haven't gotten around to it yet.
If you want to do something custom, you're probably better off
having an exhaust shop do it since they'll have to bend up some pipe, but
if you go with something pre-fabbed like a Gibson, its real simple; you
just take off the old system and bolt the new one on. With the Gibson,
you do have to cut through a pipe on the old system, so a sawzall is nice.
(If you don't have one you can rent 'em though...)
