I have a 2001 Dodge ram 1500, V8, 5.2. I am looking at replacing my exhaust from the cat. back. Any suggestions on what type of exhaust to buy? I have heard that with replacing the exhaust to a bigger size that it can help with gas and horsepower.

Getting a more free flowing exhaust will give you a little more power. Don't really know what it does for gas mileage. Since you have a V8 if you want a real good rumble. Go with the Flowmaster 40 series muffler. Thats what I've got on my truck and it sounds awsome. If you go to your local exhaust shop they could get you one and fab up a custom single in dual out system. It'll look and sound great.

this is offtopic but I went to look at an exhaust system this past weekend. The owner of the shop said that it was recently passed that if you put an aftermarket exhaust on your vehicle it will automatically fail inspection...how could this be true? It made no sense to me

There's got to be more to it then just an aftermarket exhaust.....as that would mean anyone not getting something done at a dealership would effectively be failing inspection.
