There will be no exhaust flanges in these kits. The kits are simply the the mount ring, the basket that holds the stack, and the stack it self. Now with that being said, we do build most exhaust flanges and build tons of elbows. We will advertise these stack kits and include the elbow information, and flange information. The end user will be responsible in building a turbo pipe that will work best in their set ups. In the Diesel World Magazine, the pulling team testing our proto type set up had got 3 90* elbow's, and a stock t-flare that we carry and v-band clamp. They built the turbo pipe them selves, and did a great job.

That won't be a problem..how long do you need the 90's to be? PM me your email addy, and I'll shoot over the Powerflow Catalog, and what pages to look at so you can get some part numbers in your head.

Well the guys testing our revised prototype had a concern about cutting out parts of the hood structure and causing a "week" point in the hood. So what we did is came up with a "bolt ring". This ring will re-support the parts of the hood that had the structure cut away (if any depending on where you place the hood stack) and gives us a place to bolt to. We are going to be using machine screws (torx style) for bolting the unit onto the hood. This will give it a nice flush mount.

The bolt ring was picked up yesterday, and will be applied to the truck this weekend to confim the fit. Hopefully all goes well (like everything else) and works as planned. IF this fits we can make the little changes we already know we have to do and pull the trigger to start producing these things!

I would like to say THANK YOU...thank you for your patients in this product. I know I had hoped we would have this allot sooner than this, but while trying to engineer a supreme product it's taken allot longer than I originaly thought. In the end though with taking our time with this I hope this is a product you'll buy and install and say "damn that looks good, best 200 bucks I spent". I'm really working hard to give you guys a good high quality product to put on these machines you guys love.
