in the near future i plane on makeing a ture dual exhaust. I want to get a set of pacesetter long tube headers in to high flow cats then into a muffer (unknow for now to many to chose from) then in to 3 1/2" tips. But im a little unshore on how to run the pipes dose anyone have pics of there exhaust.obw are there any advantes on run a certain size exhaust

 

True duals dont flow as well as duals with an h-pipe or x-pipe. I personally dont think it makes to much of a difference on the trucks. Mine is a 3 inch in and 2 1/2 duals out and i get same mileage power everything as my uncles that has true duals. Now on a high compression high hp and torque motor its a different story.

 

Do a search, there are so many threads on this topic your head will spin.

 

I would run 3" with a x pipe. Magnaflow makes an excellent muffler as well as Borla (not sure if they make it for your Ram though). Forget about Pacesetter and go with JBA exhaust headers or make the ultimate sacrifice and go with TTI exhaust,

Dual 3" is way too big, 2 1/2" is plenty. I would go off the headers into a cat for each bank then into an X pipe and then mufflers of your choice (I personally love Aero Turbine mufflers.).

 

I have 3" dual x-pipes on my Demon which is half the size of the Ram. Either way it is better than stock,

Vehicle size doesn't matter.... It's all about what the engine is producing. IMO, if you plan to stay under 550HP, dual 2 1/2 is plenty.

 

ok so it sounds like the x pipe is the better way to go
