HAHAHA. I'm broke too. I am wrapping up a two month upgrade on my tahoe. This weekend I'm putting my G3 tail lights on with HID's in the reverse light. Then I'm getting an alarm installed w/ remote start and one button window controls. Plus I have to drive from VA to MS for Christmas (12hrs). Luckily the gas has dropped.
Hey even if we both don't get the exhaust anytime soon, atleast we found a solution. So the next person who decides they want the duals and isn't sure will have an answer.

I sent him a message.... I think this is for the complete system......
There is no way MSRP on tips alone is going to be 708.71

I'll post his response. This is the question I asked: Is this just for the tips or the complete system, muffler and pipes?

Ahhh, I didn't pay attention to the MSRP.:ktoe:
Earlier you stated that since it is listed for earlier models I would have to make modifications. Do you know what type of mods might be needed?

Someone asked me to check out the Gibson #5570.
Here is the sound clip page. Its under Dual extreme. http://www.gibsonexhaust.com/sounds/
Not too sure about it but the system seems to wrap around the spare tire also.
I'm very curious about what oneradride might have found.

damn someone is going to get a he!l of a deal........ I don't know what mods if would take to make this fit but I can't imagine it would be much.....
Here is the sellers response:
Dear oneradride,
This is the complete system - normally $708.71. Just have an overstock of them and need to move them.
Pro-X exhaust system by STILLEN. Aluminized Dual Rear Cat-Back Exhaust System. Exits one pipe on each side of the license box. Includes 4" round bull nose stainless tips. Bolts right on.
- stillenoutlet
Also....... I don't know for sure if this is the same deal, but this 'Stillen cat back' is what I bought 2 years ago and stamped right into the muffler is MAGNAFLOW!!

Yeah I actually saw that a while back. I heard SLP is one of the most expensive exhausts out there.
That's the conclusion I came to. But it seems like alot of guys are running upon those shops who love to say... it can't be done. I'm probably gonna just end up buying an exhaust system that is already structured to go around the spare tire and get how it is poking out the back custom done.
By the way where did you buy your muffler from?

Well I just posted a question to the seller and I will let you all know what the answer is.
The question: I know that the listing says for 96-99 Suburban but what if any mods need to be made for this to fit on a 2007 Tahoe?

Answer:
Dear e-dub75,
Honestly have no idea. Was originally designed to fit the 96/99 vehicles.

So the seller really didn't help out on this.

I didn’t think he would… chances of him having an 07 and trying to use this system on it were slim….
As long as your exhaust is run down the passenger side of the truck and the pipe circumference is the same (or a little bigger to fit over the existing pipe you are going to cut) you should be good to go. You may have to do some cutting and bending and you may have to add some pipe hangers and you may have to remove the spare….. but those are chances that you take trying to save some money up front.
Worst case, buy it and mock it up, if it’s WAY off, sell it again……. ‘OR’ pay the big bucks and don’t sweat it.

e-dub $708 to spend on a catback system then have it chopped up (add more labor) seems like too much $$$ and there still is a possibility it will not fit. Hopefully you can find a shop to do a custom system for much less. I know you tried already.
Good luck and let us know how it turns out.

I seriously have had dreams of that exhaust on the first post... it almost looks liek they are just duel straight pipes that come out to the back that he cut and added those bent tips, am i wrong? is this possible?

The MSRP is $708. This guy is selling it for $120. But like you said I am very hesitant on buying something that is made for a vehicle almost 10 years apart. Going that route could payoff if I knew about exhausts. But if I am going to take a chance on anything it will be an exhaust for an '07 that (by the picture) seems that the pipes wrap around the spare.
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate oneradride's input but buying that system is too risky for me.

my shop charged me 350 for the full cat-back single-in dual-out magnaflow including 2 rolled tips, stainless steel pipe & labor......
