My truck after Iraq
Thursday, April 07, 2005 7:32 PM
Since I finally got my truck back on Sunday night, I thought the best thing I could do was spend all the money I made in Iraq on making it a little nicer, so me and MattJP spent the last 3 days installing the following items:

Magnaflow 3" Exhaust
Nu-Images Platinum Series Guage Face
In-Pro Car Wear Crystal Clear Headlights and Turn Signals
Silverstar Turn Signal Lamps
Street Scene Chrome Speed Grille
Alpine CDA-9851 Head Unit
MB Quart RCE216 Reference Series 6.5" Components in each door
2 12" Rockford Fosgate Power HX2 subs
SPL Z1X-24000 2400w Amp
CAP 5 farad capacitor
Dodge Ram Logo Centered at the Bottom of Liftglass window

Here are some pics of it all completed:

Looking good. I have one suggestion for you though. I would replace the Silverstar Turn Signal Lamps with Titanium Bulbs. The Titanium bulbs blend a lot better....IMO.

The silverstar bulbs are nice only because they're bright as @!#$ at night.

Plus it was a major BITCH to get those bulbs in so i don't think they're getting changed anytime soon.

The exhaust sounds awesome, it's nice and mellow at idle, but when you get on the throttle it's deep and bassy with a sweet growl to it. I had a 3rd row seat but I pulled it out to put the subs in, I never carry more then 3 passenegers so it isn't a big loss to me. The box is only temporary, Matt is working on a fiberglass box to go in that same spot it should be ready for the next time I come home around New Years. And those bulbs are not coming out anytime soon, since it requires you pull the entire headlight assembly out and then break it apart to replace the bulbs.

Did you get the full system? I jumped on the Magnaflow site to listen to sound clips of it and it sounds pretty beefy, I like it.

Have a good one,
Justin

Justin, yeah I got the full cat-back exhaust, but because the 3rd cat is so close to the rear muffler it looks like it's just a rear-section exhaust, but it is a full cat-back.

HUGGY, I was at Al Taqqadum on the outskirts of Habbaniyah, I didn't really like the chow hall down at Victory, but by that time I had already eaten Subway and Hardees and I don't think any chow hall in the region would've tasted any good.
