does anyone know if they make true dual exhaust for 2001 Dodge Ram 4 × 4 5.9 gas

 

Yes, they do. Any muffler shop can fab up one for you.

 

Just as jkeaton said. Make sure to read the stickies as you might be fighting with a bad plenum and not realize it.

 

along with the dual exhaust, throw on a k&n intake and try a superchips tuner if you have the cash...i have both of those and the superchips is a really nice thing to have since it reads engine codes and adjusts the speedo for tire size. If your motor isnt too high of mileage, isn't using oil, and isnt pinging when rpms increase, then the plenum is prob ok.

 

p.s., there is no "bolt-on" true dual exhaust for these rams, believe me i've looked. If your gonna drop the cash for a custom true dual system, get some good headers in there too

 

umm no... Dont put an intake on and dont buy superchips... fix the plenum either way.. The stock filter housing is more than good. Just put a good drop in filter in there.. then buy an SCT which is probably the best tuner for these trucks.. If you go that route just put a 180 tstat in and call it a day.

 

Correct. All has to be custom fabbed. Around here I can get it done for about $150. That's stainless steel performance mufflers as well that aren't terribly loud.

 

ok, i'll buy the sct tuner thing, i had a superchips on my jeep and i liked it so i went and found one on ebay for my dodge (just bought in september). Superchips is a good company but SCT might be better. However you can not tell me that the stock air box is equally as good to the k&n system. Those things are dyno'd and show hp increases, numbers don't lie and k&n's reputation is one of the best

 

I wont start an argument over it.. To each their own though.. The only plus side to superchips would be the speedometer changes.. Which to most isnt that big of an issue.. SCT is by far the choice of many here

 

You do realize that the stock air box pulls air from INSIDE the fender, rather then from behind a radiator shield in the engine bay, right? Now, if one were to tube up another intake into the K&N, it would be pretty good. However, a mostly stock truck doesn't need a CAI, the stock air box with a Spectre drop in is sufficient. Trust me, my truck moves for the big lugging 4x4 it is. About the only advantage the K&N has is the nice, smooth tube.

Good God this is a joke. http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...prod=57-1517-2

11.68 hp @ 4553RPM?! That's not even in the usuable rev range.
