Hi I'm new at this and just joined the forum. I just bought last Sat a 2007 Quad Cab ThunderRoad edition. With the 5.7 Hemi. It's in Inferno Red I want to replaced the Exhast system I would like it loud on take off from a light but quiet inside enought to talk I guess I'm asking much and would have to give something Up . Help out a newbie This truck replaced a 1990 Dodge Dakota with 217,000 0n it......Bill

 

Just changing the muffler and removing the rear resonator I can still talk fine in my truck.

 

I got a kit of evil-bay that's a Flowmaster 40, 2-1/4" pipes and some 3" Magnaflow tips for about $200+SH. It fit pretty well and I just clamped it for now. It's made to clear the spare tire (havn't tried yet) which is nice.

I think the sound is great, better then I expected. It's not mandrel bent or anything fancy, but I'm ok with that. It's only a 4.7 so 2 x 2-1/4 pipes should be more then fine. The 3" tips make it tough. I pulled them up real tight with the bumper, but you could drop them a bit. I like the exhaust tucked up nice and tight.

Did the install myself, about 2 hours. I did it part on the ground, part on a lift. I would recomend at least jacking the rear up.

Here's a soundclip.

Does anyone know about the Aero turbine mufflers? Or the new flow super 44?

 

Hey folks, newbie here. I have a 06 1500 Quad 5.7L hemi. I put the flowmaster 40 on and saw no noticable increase in power, or gas mileage savings as they claimed. But it sure as heck sounds much better than stock.

 

No ****, I changed the muffler only and dropped the second resonator in my 06 and even with mild music playing I can talk fine at freeway speeds of 80 mph.

nideastsoldier, you really won't see anything other than a nice sounds from a flowmaster.

 

There is any exhaust recommendation for a 4.7 Engine 2006. i dont care too much about sound, am looking for performace!

 

I think the AT3030 would sound good on any V8 and is a straight through, non chambered muffler.

 

Have a '03 2500 ram with the hemi and ran a flowmaster 70 series 3" in and dual 2.5" out the back. Sounds good and is not really loud at all just like I wanted.

 

is ur hemi a mds engine? i hear they sound terrible in mds mode. trying to get all info before i spend my money. called flowmaster and they claim to be working on this problem.
