Ok, so I know things get repeated over and over, but Id like there to be a sticky made. Any other Dakota Forums ive been to usually say "Shoulda gone with the V8" well, like many other people, I didnt because I couldnt. So now what I want to know is, What all is out there performance wise for the 3.7L. Im talking everything fromCAI, to Headers, to Everything, and who makes them and what kind of gains could you get. Im sure it'd be helpful to have a list for the other engines too. I know there isnt much out there because people hate us and dont like doing aftermarket stuff for us, but who has done some. I mean, I guess worst case scenario, you could get an exhaust shop to do a one off for you, but is there stuff out there already (Like I think Flowmaster has a catback setup.) anyways. If someone could make a sticky about that stuff, itd be great, but actually seperating it between engines so its a little more user friendly. Thanks.

honestly i dont like how flowmaster sounds on 6 cyclinders

 

nor do I, but thats why I want a list of all the different things. if they're the only ones then what else could you do? I mean, for me personally, Im probably going to go to an exhaust shop and have one done up anyways, but I dont know if Gibson makes one for the 3.7 or not.

 

if i was you, buy a universal muffler. and go to a muffler shop and have the custom bend ur exhaust

 

any universal muffler would fit, u just need to get the right size and offset. magnaflow. corsa. borla any of those

 

for the amount of money you are gonna spend for more power, it would have been cheaper to get the v8, alright i said it. there are plenty of things you can do to your 3.7 that are the same mods that us 4.7 guys have done. just get the parts for the 3.7. cooler t stat, electric fan conversion, k/n 63 series intake, there is a bunch of stuff. aftermarket throttle bodies, iat relocator once you get the intake, and best of all being the 6 banger you can get the twin turbo set up this guy has

honestly with the V6's I have found that the Gibson Exhausts sound best!

 

V6 - straight pipe it. I did mine that way and it sounds fine. Straight duals for the cat on back. Then of course intake (actually, do this before exhaust). Headers are not an option at this moment for us 3.7 guys. 180 T-stat, power wire, JET chip, um.... I think that about sums it up.
