I have a 2005 Dodge Ram Hemi with factory exhaust system. Looked at some aftermarket kits and decided to maybe have the local exhaust shop run duals from the cats back out to the rear with either 2 magnaflow or flowmasters. Question is, will this be sufficient to at least not loose any torque or hp? Not neccesarily looking for big hp gains but dont want to loose any low end torque. And really hoping for a gas mileage improvement and a bit deeper sound. Just don‘t wanna loose any useful back pressure. Also wondering if getting rid of the resonator will make the cabin drone sound that I can‘t stand. Thanks.
I work for a Dodge dealership (and only drive Dodge) and my dad has ran an exhaust shop over 20 years. I'd do cat-back 40 series Flow-masters. It's a dodge so it will literally roar if you take the cats off. If you dump it go over the back axle. You will lose mileage regardless. 2-5 mpg
u need a aif filter of some sort to filter teh air going into ur motor. otherwise ur sucking in trash and dirt wich will lead to engine failure.u can pick up a universal filter that shud slide right onto the mass air sensor for under 20 bucks at a parts store
