I have a 2005 ram 2500 Hemi, i had previously had a dynomax exhaust system on the truck and it sounded pretty good, the problem was the exhaust was beginning to fall apart. Right now i just have a muffler delete and definitely lost some low end, I am currently looking for an exhaust that will sound mean and get me some extra horses and low end, I have looked in the Banks monster and the flowmaster American Thunder kit, they both seem alright but i want something that will stand out.
Any ideas???

 

Get a stainless catback and stay away from Flowmaster and any chambered muffler. Flowmaster will rust out in a few more years also.
So, get a stainless catback and a cut-out. If your state inspection laws prohibit a cut-out, install it so you can put a blank sleeve in place of it when you go for inspection!
I have Magnaflow and love it. At 18" and being an Oval muffler its a bit quiet for what you want, but they sell bullet style at 14" and sound mean as hell and still retain a decent sound(no slapping on decel)

 

with the 18 inch will i still have backpressure? because as of now i dont have much

 

Yep, dynomax has a rep for rusting out, just as fast as the Rustmasters. I've had a Flowmaster and it rusted out in NO TIME and I'm not in a salt state. It also REALLY chokes down flow.

I've had a Cherry Bomb Extreme on now for about three years, no sign of rust yet and none of the drone I had with the Flowmaster. Plus it sounds '60s muscle car mean!!!

 

Any opinion on the banks?

 

I also got the Cherry Bomb Extreme and it sounds really nice even on my v6

 

I don't have any experience with Banks on gassers, have always been a diesel truck company foremost...

 

Thanks for the help guys, i think im gonna check out some magnaflows

 

Can't go wrong with a Maggy, they don't have that obnoxious loud sound that I like but they are stainless, flow very well and last a long time...
