With 4" unless you modify the firewall you will have severe rubbing and loud noises. By the way MBRP sells just the DP, and stacks are wicked sounding on the 6.0

I was looking at going with stacks until i realized that it would be tight for a quad and worry about stuff hitin them while in transport. So went with the 5inch single straight and love it. I was wondering though about the 4 inch down pipe? What year can you go with a 4inch down pipe looking under the hood and instaling the down pipe i dont think in an anyway coud you get a 4 inch down pipe on.Edited:

But 4" pipe is not necessary on any year so why agravate yourself putting it on unless you just like to .
