Match the exit before you order. Cab and engine are on the product page. Two systems can share a year and still be different exits or tubing sizes.

The four steels

What the series means

The shape of the system follows the vehicle. The series is the metal, and on Armor BLK it is also the finish on the tip.

Value

Armor Lite

Heavy-gauge aluminized steel. MBRP calls this the value system, with the same fitment and sound as the stainless ones. A dry climate, or a vehicle you want to sound better without paying for stainless.

Salt and slush

Armor Plus

T409 stainless, with the lifetime warranty MBRP puts on this series. It resists rust that goes through the pipe. Road salt can still stain the surface.

Winter truck

Armor Pro

T304 stainless, the grade MBRP calls the most durable, also with a lifetime warranty. This is the one they spec when the vehicle lives in harsh weather.

Black tip

Armor BLK

Aluminized tubing, with a high-heat black powder coat on the tailpipe and tip. MBRP warrants that black finish for one year. The pipe underneath stays bare metal so it can take stone chips.

Before you order

Questions

Does a cat-back replace the catalytic converter?

No. A cat-back starts behind the catalytic converter and runs to the tip. A resonator-back starts further back. An axle-back is the section behind the rear axle. The card names which one you are looking at.

Why do so many part numbers fit the same years?

MBRP cuts a different system for the exit, the tubing size, and the vehicle. This page shows the exit, the tubing, and the tip from the product specs. Open the product page to match the rest of the fitment before you order.

Which series is louder?

MBRP says Armor Lite has the same sound as the stainless systems. Armor BLK is the same performance with a black tip. The series is the metal and the finish, not a louder or quieter tune.
