Tubi or not tubi

Wow, I just had the dealer install a tubi exhaust on my 02 cab and what a difference. The sound is out of this world. You just want to drive it and never stop. I think this is what I always thought a sports car should sound like. Porsche has the power and feel of a sports car but with the tubi it also has the sound. Highly recommend it.

How could you post this and not post a sound clip! Haha, congrats on the Tubi, every other car I've heard with Tubi sounds like perfection.

Congrats on the Tubi! Do you mind disclosing what it cost you?
And, +1 on the sound clip. I'm not as happy with my Z-Tek exhaust and might be interested in swapping out.

Yes!!!!! I have been debating the Tubi exhaust for a while...how is the weight? Any (real) HP increase (or decrease)?

Gotta do the headers, intake and flash and then it'll sound like this...

Tubi Cost

I am not real technical but this did the job for me. The cost was around $2200 installed by the dealer which is always a big plus for me and I will try to get a sound clip and figure out how to put it on. The only problem is I just never want to get out of second gear it sounds so good.

Sharkter's link works; the file must be large...but it sounds nice.

Any significant weight difference between Tubi and other aftermarket muffler options?
