Well we need to know how far you want to go with it. Full headers with high flow cats going into an X pipe with dual mufflers, or just a cat back system? I have heard that the Ram's have really good cat's already so I had my pipes cut just before the very restrictive factory Y pipe, ran dual pipes into a single muffler and ran dual pipes out of the muffler and had them exited before the rear tire. It looks and sounds Bad A$$. Here is a link at the muffler shop.

Default Found this!

On my 08 HEMI SLT, Supercharged. Some indicated on a 2006 Hemi they had two resonator's. I only have one. Being all stock except for the supercharger from this dodge forum i was told that the greatest aggressive sounding exhaust for stock from the dodge forum exhaust experts would be to Remove the main muffler and replace it with a piece of 3" straight pipe. Leave both the front and rear resonator on. I am needing to add another resonator. What length does the 3" straight pipe, need to be cut to?How far apart does the resonators need to be to full feel power with non being lost? What measurements need for complete exhaust set-up?

THIS VID BELOW SOUNDS INSANE

If you remove your muffler and run a straight pipe you will lose some of your low end torque. I tried this and ran it for a week. It sounded like my boat and the drone was annoying.

when i first bought my truck i did exactly what was said above, kept both stock resinators, and just put a peice of 3" pipe inplace where the stock muffler was, that was ok for a bit but not loud enough, i love the full straight pipe i have now, less droan the the dumped flowmaster 40 i had and it sounds better
