It is not stock because Chrysler didn't come out with a dual tail pipe. It may be a gibson since I think they have dual tail pipes. The stock exhaust is pretty quiet too.

I'm asking these foolish questions cause am not too mechanically incline, just traded my 93 civic for the truck 2 weeks ago) The pipes sticks straight out from the rear about 2-3 feet apart and they are 2.5 in pipes

jack up the rear and crawl underneath, Flowmaster stamps their mufflers. There could be a stamp on it.... OR Get ahold of the previous owner, the dealer that you bought it from should know who he/she is and how to get ahold of them.

Another thing you can do is look at the bends in the exhaust pipes. If it appears that they aren't the same diameter at the bends as they are where the pipes are straight, then you have a custom exhaust setup. Generally if you order a kit such as Gibson or Flowmaster, they are mandrel bent. A local shop would uses hydraulic benders that have to crush the pipes to get the angles.
