Howdy all,

Headers, 2.5 exhaust, h pipe, and Flowmaster 50’s get installed this week. Should I dump these pipes after the muffler? Being that the 50 series delta flow is quiet, curious if it might be a good combo for dumping.

Thanks!

Here's the Super 50 set up on my K30. I wanted to have it exit to the side, but the spring hangers would make the tips too low on a K30. I've done it before on 10/20 Series trucks/Suburbans. Due to the different shape of the rear hanger on those trucks there's more room to fit the tailpipe.

Personally, I wouldn't dump the exhaust at the mufflers on a Suburban. I've had two 8.1 Suburbans with duals that exit to the side behind the tire. One had a 70 Series the other had a Super 44. I ended up taking the Super 44 out as there was too much drone.

Drone makes driving miserable. Dump 'em out the back.
