    Neither, but if I had no other option, it would be to the side.

    My favorite quote from Mike Leach, "Children should be seen and not heard, but exhausts should be heard and not seen." Just saying, I am a big fan of hidden exhausts, and not advertising what you have.

    Try to find a spintech side exit set up.When i first got my truck it had the blowmasters dumped under the truck and the drone was ridiculous. Now i have magnaflows exiting the passenger side and i much happier with the sound.

    A lot of us run axle dumps, they are cool and loud, but I am starting to hate mine, I havnt moved my truck in about 2 years now, but when I did , I would wash it , and as soon as I would start it , it was already dusty !

    Mine dump right after the collectors, but they point towards the center a little in case something let's go it won't oil down my slicks. I hope.

    Ok still no pics but i did run the pipes out the back and just outside of the hitch . Took it over to a muffler shop and had them clean it up and put on better hangers and weld it all together they did not change anything so i guess that it was fine. I ran dual pipes from headers back to a dual in dual out magnaflow x muffler big mistake !!!! Way to loud for a stockish truck plus drone is loud also back to shop for different mufflers
