And what size is our exhaust on the 5.7?

Here is a demo of 3 CherryBomb exhaust systems I had on my 2006 2500HD RAM non-mds Hemi.
It is in order of loudest to quietest. Vortex,Turbo, IMCO. The IMCO has no highway drone at all and is the largest muffler.

Here is the Cherrybomb Vortex:

No, stock cat is fine. Already high flow. Catback piping should be 3" on the all newer years and i believe it was 2.5" 05 back???
