Had a Rage 2.5" bigbore fitted to my last truck and it was excellent - added plenty of low down grunt. Very free-breathing system which significantly altered torque curve to allow turbo to come in much earlier to give extra low down pull - invaluable for offroad. About 8-10 extra hp. Good to have the bigbore ex turbo if possible.

The site has just straight pipes for a 70

So what would the difference be between a brand name like this and just getting a 'freebe' off Skid

Skid dosen't know he's doing it for free yet

I'm not knocking the brand, just wondering

I broke the exhaust off my Blizzard, 2LT with straight downpipe sounds awesome :lol: Nailed the exhaust on my 80 series on a tree stump and added to the previous exhaust leak so should look at getting a replacement soon.

In for other peoples opinions.
