Just ordered...
A 5" turbo back straight pipe exhaust...
Should be here soon. No cats, no muffler. Got it from Gus at Farm Boys Diesel. Cheaper than any place I could find, plus this one doesn't come with a muffler. All of the other places wanted to sell me a muffler plus a delete pipe. Of course, pictures and video to follow.

Unless you have some other mods under the hood, prepare to lose some bottom end. Not enough to make you ricked off, but enough you'll notice it. It will sound great, though. I've installed around five or so 4-inch (MBRP's) on my diesels, which I currently am running on my 2007, too. I just inquired today about a muffler delete pipe, and they tried to sell me a cat delete first. I didn't use band clamps (which I highly recommend), so now my pipes are so crimped they will only come apart with a Sawzall or smoke wrench. Diesel exhausts are fun.
I know you responded to me about the towing 6,000# with an F-150 post, but now you see the bittersweet of my dilemma. The 2007 6.0L is the last actual diesel you can "play" with - which is another reason I wax and wane. Should I keep it and play, or move on. Keeping it costs too much money on a "rented" truck. The company owns it. Still, I am running Innovative's Street Program in it, and let me say that the word "quick" is an understatement withover 7,000#'s of flying brick. You may consider something unless you already have some juice elsewhere. I Hypermax 330'd my 2000 7.3L and boy do I miss her.

Ah... Guess I should have been more specific, all of the places on line wanted to sell me a muffler delete pipe. My truck already doesn't have a cat from the factory. And I'm 90% sure I'll be taking my truck down to Muffler Mart and having them weld it up for me after I install it. Oh yeah, my truck has the Edge Juice with Attitude on it right now...

5" turbo back huh. If it indeed has a 5" downpipe have fun fitting that in there. A 4" is tight as it is, my SS MBRP only clears my trans heat shield by 3/4". Until now I have never seen a company that sells a 5" turbo back exhaust, most are 4" DP with a 5" back.
Also be prepared for the thing to be LOUD!!!! I went from a 4" to a 5" recently. The sound level is very increased. The turbo will be much louder as well. I will actually hear the turbo spooling to 25psi instead of just the air sucking in.
Since you have the Juice I hope you have a valve body or mods for your trans. Also the Juice won't give you enough fuel to offset the loss in low end torque of the 5". Really the Juice doesn't throw very much fuel comparatively. I was suprised about how little it actually was after I put on my DP chip.

PS - I do not plan to remove my catalytic convertor or DPF.

I doubt that I will have any problems with the truck in that time period, but if I do, it will be the dealer's responsibility to prove that the failure was caused by the mod. I am not really worried though, as I have more faith in this vehicle than any other vehicle I have ever owned.
