They do give it a nice deep rumble at WOT.

I haven't even heard of Diamond Eye until coming to this thread. I looked at a website called racepages.com and they had a price of like $550 for a SS dual system for 2001 to 2007 Duramax, without tips or down pipe (sold separately).

Does anyone have a full Diamond Eye system that can comment on the quality beyond just the downpipe?

They make nice systems, but do require a little wiggling to get it just right.

Let me know if I can help.

Sounds like an exhaust system is going to be a good first mod for my truck. So what brand is a good one to get?

Yeah Diamond Eye is the way to go! I am happy with mine!

got it put in last night, damn it was a pain, this thing better sound sick lol...broke the bolt off that kinda keeps the down pipe from rotating, the one that goes through the little tab on the diamond eye, does anybody know what the threads are on that?

thanks, that is the right size but i ended up just welding it lol, i had enough thread left on the broken bolt to get a nut on it and not have to worry about getting the old bolt out, but the threads were too mangled up so it got welded...hope i never have to get the dp out

i love mine! The install was OK, Damn the guy who put the v clamp on the back of the turbo! well got pissed off and just cut he heat sheild off! That made all the difference in the world! It did make the sound meaner! Did the tranny dipstick fit back into place or did yall have to fab up something?
