    Embarrassed exhaust

    hello guys
    can anyone tell me if i was to remove my original exhaust from the cat back and have an exhaust made so it is like the lightning would it damage my engine at all? what with all the correct amount of back pressure and all that,or does anyone know a uk supplier or exhaust manufacturer who would do a good job without taking my eyes out or am i just best importing one from the usa,hope this makes sense to you all,i just dont want to do any harm to my engine by having an exhaust made
    thanks for any help andy
    ps
    my truck is a non super charged 2001 supercrew

    Andy, you won't break it doing a cat back.

    Have you tried Magnaflow UK? http://www.nemesisuk.com/magnaflow_website/

    hi ya hemiuk
    it is a stainless steel magnaflow cat back exiting as the lightnings,there is a couple of new hangers to fit and had to have one end of the straight pipe which fits from the original exhaust to the new one flared open,the exhaust alone was £354 plus vat £416,they wanted £175 to fit it which i think was a bit much,but me and my mate have fitted it at his garage,getting the truck back tomorrow cant wait to hear it,they are not all that loud with the original exhaust removed,i just wanted my truck to sound like a REAL truck if ya know what i mean
    cheers mate andy
