New to the forum.
 
I have a 97 ram 1500 5.2 stock. Im trying to get a little performance out of it cheaply. i did cut exhaust before muffler sounds good but im going to put a glass pack on what do you think?

Make sure everything else is up to snuff before doing any real mods..... tune up, check the plenum, etc.

Welcome to DF. :D

You wont notice any difference by just doing exhaust. Pretty much the same with any vehicle. There are a lot of things you can do, check a search on here. Just keep in mind its a truck, not a mustang.

Welcome to the forum! I have a gutted cat and cherry bomb glasspack on my truck, sounds good!! It's nice and loud just the way I like it :), but doesn't add any HP, probably cause there was no decal that came with it :D

I suggest you have a GOOD look around this site, to familiarize yourself with some of the common Dodge issues that you probably didn't even know about (I've learned a TON since I joined here!). We have a lot of knowledgeable gearheads here that don't mind answering questions/solving problems so you came to the right place!

That kills me... "No HP gain = No decal" I love it!

Oh, that sucks. Maybe we should take up a sticker collection so you can go fast like everyone else? :D

I think a couple of huuuge VTEC decals goin diagonally up the sides would do the trick

I dunno, man... are those hood scoops really, really secure? I'd be afraid that that speed might start tearing things off of the body when you wind it out.
