Flo pro exhaust to short?

gawaterfowler · Jul 12, 2015

I installed my flo pro 5" turbo back (4" down pipe) exhaust today but can anyone give me some insight int getting the right spacer pieces in. I have a ccsb and finally got it all bolted up but some of the joints can't be more than maybe 1/2 an inch

if you got the kit that will do a Cclb also you will have one piece left over. I think the flo pro kits come built for both ccsb and cclb. Do you have a piece left over?

Actually 2

78f100 · Jul 12, 2015

Here is how it should be. You may have 2 pieces left, one if no muffler is used the other is for long bed.

cut one to fit so that all pipes slide all the way together

Trying to avoid cutting unless I absolutely have to.

You will likely have to cut any setup other than a crew long box. I have a '15, but still had to cut to fit. Not a big deal.

I've found on 2 flow pro kits that using the sullied band clamp on the tailpipe does not work correctly because the bend on the tailpipe is to close to where it slips into the muffler. I used regular u bolt clamps In this location only to make it work. Not sure about the length issue but cutting is required on at least one pipe in their kits. A measurement sheet should come in the box of not check their website for it.

You absolutely have to if you want it to fit properly.

One cut? you're trying to avoid one cut?

I just installed the flo pro 5 in on my truck the end of last year. The only thing I cut was the tailpipe after the rear tire. I only did it for the exhaust tip I put on. Other than that I didnt cut anywhere else. Are you sure it was a kit for the Ford trucks? Mine fit perfectly on a CCSB.

Is it only the 5" that people are having to cut? I put a 4" FloPro on mine and it fit perfectly. The only piece I didn't use was the exit pipe. I dumped it over the rear axle. And my kit came with everything for a ccsb and cclb.

I have a 5" on my CCLB and I have to take it off and cut the delete pipe because it's a couple inches too long and the tailpipe section won't fit. I called them and they said that a few inches gets cut off the delete pipe after it's made and they may have had a batch where that didn't happen.

I have installed several flo pro kits, I don't ever remember having to cut anything.

I installed the 5" kit on my CCSB a few months ago and didnt cut anything. It fit with no problems.

I always had to cut the 5" Flo-Pros on the 6.4's to get them to fit right...

Never on the 6.7 Flo-Pros

these were all straight pipe FWIW, I've found that the muffler delete pieces are slightly different length than the mufflers

gawaterfowler · Jul 12, 2015

Dillionm91 do you happen to know what actual pieces you used? I've tried all combos possible I think I go shipped two of the same pieces or I'm just overthinking it.

DillonM91 · Jul 12, 2015

It depends on what kit you have bc I installed a straight pipe from the down pipe back.

gawaterfowler · Jul 12, 2015

I bought the turbo back and I am not trying to avoid one cut I'm out of town with work for several weeks right now so I don't have my tools to properly make that one cut and I'm not a improviser I like to do it right one time is all.

gawaterfowler · Jul 12, 2015

It was shipped to me from Rudy's as part number 638nb for the 6.4. The down pipe when in great no problems just delete pipe back is where issues came in.

washingtonredneck · Jul 12, 2015

Flo Pro could have sent you a wrong piece. I ordered a Flo Pro 5" downpipe back with bungs. The first pipe has one bung on the end, the second pipe has no bungs. I'm supposed to have part # 30858 but received 30858NB. Now waiting on them to send me the right piece.
