Well i just joined the site after lookin it over.. I have found a lot of helpful hints on here.. I have an 06 Ram Hemi that i purchased about 2 months ago. I love the truck.. I recently installed a flowmaster muffler single in dual out and cut off both resonators.. It sounds great except when the MDS kicks in and ruins it.. Does anyone have any ideas or tips for a different muffler where this want be as noticeable??

 

click the little tow/haul button on your gear selector and MDS will NOT kick in.

 

But is that somethin that is safe to leave on all the time while driving without messing anything up??

 

As far as I know the only thing that the tow/haul button does is turn off MDS and it will take a litle bit longer to shift. It shouldn't mess anything up, but your gas mileage will probably suffer!

 

So what is everyone else doin about this??? Are you guys just learning to deal with the noise or have you found a solution besides running the tow/haul button on??

 

I can't tell when my MDS kicks in, maybe I'm just deaf. I'm starting to hear a lot of people complain about this!

 

Well diehardpolice what exactly do you have on your truck??? Any resonators??

 

I've got a Flowmaster 1 into 2, no resonators, dual exits out of the corners of the bumper. And I swear I can't hear it when it kicks in!

 

I have an 06 quad hemi, I have the magnaflow dual out,, I can hear the mds kick in but this muffler does not rumble at idle.. It does however sound very good when you get on it..

 

I tried the tow/haul option, all it did on the highway was rev up to 3000rpms!? Verusus 2000 or so.


What's your beef with MDS? That it kicks down and the exhaust is quiet?

I have the Magnaflow cat back, no resonators (mine had 2) and it sounds great. Not to noticeable at idle, but 2000 and up and she purrs. Smooth on the highway as well.


What happens that you can hear?
