I am feeling a little neutered.... I used to have two now I have one ---
muffler. I had the two turbo mufflers removed and replaced with straight
pipes. I retained the original T connection to my existing 3 inch exhaust
pipe down the side. The 3 inch pipe was cut off at about the second frame
member from the rear and a 3 inch by 3 inch turbo muffler was put in as
shown in Steve's pictures.

We did not use the same muffler as Steve because this guy could not get it
soon enough.

The install was a little tricky since he had to go over my trailer hitch
support so the pipe would not be too low. I think it is a little louder
than the original system but does not bother and is at the rear of coach.
I had a chance to hear a GMC with a straight pipe (just after cutting out
the mufflers) and it really Blatts...... Need some muffler.

Total cost was $143 including labor and muffler. less than one Flow Master.
We will see how it goes. I have a Howell TBI so I am sure the computer
will handle any mixture adjustments.
