So my buddy Mike bought himself a new truck about a month ago. He decided after 8000km's (~5000miles) that he has had enough of the stock BS, and it is time for some mods. So he bought a black maxx programmer (about the only one on the market that will work with a 2010) and we started on the mods.
First things to go were the DPF and the Cat.

Then we traced out the downpipe flange using the gasket, and free hand cut out a new flange using the plasma cutter (yeah I know most of you pipe hitting mother fuckers would have done it with a drill press and an angle grinder), but we are lazy and using plasma leaves more time for beer.
We then tacked, test fitted pulled out welded up, and I went hey, we should take a picture of this:

Then installed on this:

List of mods to come in the near future:
Intake from Dave (Passenger)
Rhmt Exhaust manifold so we can get rid of the rest of the egr crap
Twins
Camshaft
Sorry for the lack of pics, I am really poor at remembering such things, someday maybe we will find someone that likes to drink beer and take pics.
