Re:Doing stage 1 mod to stock pipes 8 Months, 3 Weeks ago
Go straight to stage 3. I have an 07 silverado and thats what I did. I tried the stage 1 for like 2 days and went on to 3 and have never looked back. Best thing I ever did for my bike and I did it without having to spend any money. Even better
