I want my truck to sound loud and have good tone to it. It is all stock. Should I put on a flowmaster muffler or dual exhaust it? If I dual exhaust it should I straight pipe it or have a muffler?

There are so many ways to go, best talk to a exhaust shop for your application. I have hooker headers with 3" Y pipe into a offset Mega-flow Muffler, 2.5 outlets (duels out the back) very end of exhaust it goes to 3.5 tips. But I have 400 hp. So any way, the smaller the pipe the more crackle you will get, larger pipe gives you a deeper tone, with the crackle under control so to speak.

The guy just wants a good sound, stock performance. I was just letting him know how different size pipe affects tone...

True...

If I just put on a flowmaster muffler what Inlet outlet size would I need?

I personally on your truck would go with 2.5" inlet with 2 1/4 dual outlet, I had duals from engine manifolds out the rear with my stock motor, & flow master on both sides, quiet when you need to be & giver a little and she'd rap. I don't see anything wrong with a single inlet and duals on the outlet. Exhaust tech. has come a long way. See if James pics up on this post & get his opinion also. All depends what you want.

I installed a flowmaster 40 on my first gen Ram. Factory 2 1/2" single exhaust 5.9 360 eng. It sounds fine. I'd prefer duals but couldn't justify the price. Flowmaster 50 is louder yet. You can get off cheap this way 50 or 60 bucks from flowmaster if all you want is a little BOOM for your buck

Say James, since you mentioned you exhaust, I have been paying attention to single exhaust on trucks. So I see...nothing wrong with 3" single, ran across one and it sounded great! I couldn't believe it, sound and performance! Coming from a dual exhaust guy...

i have a 40 series muffler on stock exhaust system i want it louder and i dnt mind inside the cab would be the next best thing without doing the entire exhaust system

I have a 2003 ram slt 4.7 v8 what would you suggest I did for this truck to turn some heads??

^^^that post was noise pollution, first how can we be a bunch of just one a**hole? Do you mean a**holes? Second, car companies spend as little as possivle to increase profits thats why things to UPGRADE your vehicle are costly. Congratulations, you're a moron lol.

On my 4.7 I had a flow master super 44 single 2.5 in dual 2.25 outs and a set of 4 inch black chrome tips.... it was quiet at idle but scared people when I rapped it. Now I have a 2016 ram rt with a 5.7 hemi and I have the carven r series bolt on system... got it for 300 bucks all stainless steel and a lifetime warranty and it is the best sounding hemi here in Odessa Texas

Here is the kit from carven. Check out their site they have kits for chevys also

My vehicle meets all motor vehicle standards passes smog and state inspection requirements including being test driven by a state licensed professional. You sir are a thin skinned moron looking for something to complain about.

Here is the actual law. I’m legal in all 50 states if I’m under 95 db. California is the strictest in the nation so get a db meter and prove we are breaking the law.

Dodge stock trucks are the fastest trucks out there douche_ram your and idiot how about you drive a new one and see how you like it bitch

keep everything the same but take out the stock muffler and slip in a Magnaflow 12198. Will need a couple of small pipes bent to fit it. Gives you a good deeper sound. Tends to resonate in the cab at speeds around 60mph

DOUCHE_RAME, I am guessing you get annoyed when load piped Rams thunder passed you while you are waiting at the bus stop, or riding in your mommy's Prius. Cheer up, every dog has its day, and you will too... maybe.

Eh douche ram sounds like a fucking tree hugger who probably drives a battery operated tesla car made by tyco and when the battery drains out of it he calls for uber

Remove the cat put a 8in cherrybomb on AND a flowmaster super 10....it will be loud and deep when you get into it and quiet and mellow when cruising...i just put this on my 99 grand Cherokee limited with a 4.7 v8....also the bigger tip ya have the deeper and the smaller will be shrill

How do I run an exhaust yet keep the loudness of it the exhaust is cutoff after the cab

lol you guys, i giggled reading some of these. heres my setup im going with stock manifolds atm on a 5.9 from there adapter to 3 inch straight back dual flowmaster 40 series 3inch in 3 inch out to right behind the wheel wells,up thru the bed out over the corners 5 inch in 8 inch out stacks like my dually ill post a pic of it as well when im done with the new setup in the dodge ill post a updated pic here

heres a pic of the stacks i bought

last is the pic of my dually i used to have 3 speed 350 efi on 5 inch stacks

I was wondering what would be the best exhaust for me.I just got a ram 1500 2017 bighorn Hemi and I’m trying to make it loud just not where my neighbors want to kill me.any suggestions?

put a diesel exhaust i would on my truck if i ever get on

Shorty headers down around engine straigjt 3 inch pipe from header to 3 in in e in out flowmaster super 40s with 5 in in 8 inch out stacks ITS NOT A DIESEL so hate all you want

I have a 2016 w/5.7 Hemi with a Flowmaster 40 single exhaust sounds awesome. 3" pipes did a funny video of it https://youtu.be/9TNIVvwnFmo
