So I called the three shops in my area that do exhaust jobs just to get an estimate on how much it would be to put true-duals on my truck. Whe they found out that I had a new Hemi all of them said that they can't do it. And I could really get an answer to why not from any of them. I'm not planning on doing it now, but maybe some time in the future. Is there some kind of an under lying issue here that I should know about? Thanks.

 

The MDS drone is awful with loud exhaust.

 

The guys at the shop I take my vehicles to were hesitant at first, but only because it was a 2008 and wanted to ensure that their wouldnt be any real issues with the installation and fit of the exhaust (but, this was about 6 months ago). Not sure why the hemi makes the difference there?

Personally, I dont think the 'drone' is that bad. Its bearable, not to mention if I am just driving along on cruise, I have the music up loud enough where this isnt an issue anyway.

Like the others said, the shops have probably had problems in the past with customer complaints about the MDS drone. The last thing they want is a customer coming back complaining about something they can't fix.

 

That makes sense. I've been wondering about the MDS. I've never heard the drone in person, but I listened to a few clips and watched a few vidoes online of Hemi exhausts. It didn't seem too bad. What I was planning on doing getting rid of everything behind the cats and running a true dual setup from there with an h-pipe somewhere between the cats and mufflers. I was thinking Magnaflows with turndowns.

 

in my opinion(take it for what its worth).If thoose exhaust shops won't do it,then there not a good shop.I've talked to all the big name ones around where i live,and they said they would do it no problem.they didn't see a reason why any other shop would'nt have done it.If you can't find anyone else to do it maybe you could do it yourself?

 

I don't have the equipment to do it. lol. And I share your opinion about those shops. I'll probably have to have it done in one of the bigger cities around here.

 

With my magnaflow and the front resonator there's barely any drone...you can defiantly hear the exhaust note change though. It doesn't sound bad it's just not as smooth compared to when firing all 8.

 

I have true duals with an x-pipe and I love it. Mines an 05 with no MDS though.

 

Mine is an 06, and the shope here in town told me they could do it, but it was going to be around $1600 bucks. I thought that was crazy!!
