I have a dodge ram 1500 reg cab short box with a single exaust i want to leave the caddalic conveter on and put a y-pipe after it. and bring out 2 pipes to the rear end. is there a cheap way to do this or to do it your self. where can i buy pipes that are pre bended for my truck? and will it sound ok i have the 360 motor or the big one lol
i had a straight pipe on mine (2500 with a 5.9 v-8) and it doesn't sound that good. i would recommend do a 1 in 2 out flowmaster 40 that is like a 3 inch out, so you will still have the duals, and the 02's will be good. when i had mine straight piped, it almost felt like i lost power
some people lose power, some people dont. it depends on how you have your setup. for something like that, then yea i would imagine you would lose power, but if you ran straight true dual pipes...then i would think it would be a different story
Taking a muffler off or putting a performance one on doesn't do a damn thing. I've had flowmasters and magnaflow and i felt no difference in horsepower or acceleration. took that crap off and left the cadallitic converter on and still didn't feel a difference, actually gained and extra mpg and it sounds flippin sweet. I've never heard our trucks without the cat but if you leave it on it will sound sweet.
