5.7 V8 Hemi Rear Muffler Bypass
Mark, get er done and post some YouTube's, so we can evaluate your test...hehe. I'm very curious how this will sound.
Slipped out to the garage and pulled the driver side rear muffler loose on the wifes D RT to check out the sound. Compared to the other side, it definitely has a nice growl to it. Guess i'll pick up some 2.25 pipe and fab me a flange for one side to bolt on and either a couple 3 more for the other side or just have the new pipe flared to slip on passenger side. Thinkin about using flanges so I could bolt mufflers back on for resale when she gets bored or if I have to much drone. Not sure on tips yet...... Mark
Mark,
Good tips should cost around 60-80 bucks each at 4" and pipe thats cheap. ( I like the Magnaflow, and SLP myself ), project should cost about 1/2 the price as the vendor wants. I thought I read somewhere on here the exhaust is 2.5" from the suitcase resonator back but have not climbed under to verify?

Ok, I finally got time to put this to the test. I bought 4' of 2.25 exhaust pipe, a 2.25" lap band clamp. I fabbed up a flange to weld the pipe to and bolt it to the factory flange. I just 45ed the ends and painted the pipes with high heat paint. I had the pipe expanded on the end to slip over the factory pipe on the passenger side....It all went good on the install. Sounds a little higher pitch then I expected when I rev the motor up at a standstill. Going to drive it to work in the morning to check it out. Still wondering about drone?? If it sounds good then i'll look into tips. Thanks Mark
