Iv'e had my 02 Dakota 5.9 for over a year now and have decided it's time for a little more performance. This is the first time I've modded a truck and a N/A for that matter. It does have a K&N intake and 180 thermostat. I'm looking into getting headers and exhaust and just need some opinions on a good header and exhaust combination. Thanks.

 

Long tubes, 2.5" collectors into a single 3" custom bent with a flowmaster 40 is what I'd do if I had a 2wd.

 

I ran gibson shorties thru a flowmaster 50 dual out 2.25" setup, performed very well.
