exhaust install
My girlfriend's dad is going to weld whatever muffler I decide I want to put on my truck. Besides a muffler and some tubing, do I need anything else to complete installation? I'm planning on getting a Borla ProXS 2.25/2.25 C/O muffler off ebay. I don't plan on running much piping out of the muffler though, and have read that I would be better off getting a Flowmaster 40 for the money. With either muffler, if I dump it right after, am I actually going to lose power? Sorry, I know this has been posted many times probably, but any answer would be appreciated.

I decided to buy the the Borla proXS off ebay. Got it for like $79. It has a 2.25 inlet and 2.25 outlet. Since the stock exhaust piping off our trucks is already 2.25 in diameter I can just reuse that piping and cut it to what length I want right? If so, how much shorter should I go on the tubing? I want performance and sound.

I want somewhat of a louder sound over stock. Did I screw myself by getting the 2.25/2.25. Would the 2.5 outlet have been much louder? Would dumping it be optimal for sound. I know it isn't going to be as loud as a flowmaster, but I bought in the hopes of improving both performance and sound.

2.25 will give you a bit more torque, esp. if you want to dump it, i noticed a slight power increase over my flowmaster, you should feel a nice difference going from stock. I'm starting to love mine each time I drive it, and I can hear my subwoofer now without having to really crank it!! My 40 series si/do would drone so bad that it seemed like it cancelled out a lot of the bass soundwaves.. Im glad I tried out the borla now.
