Hype? I don't know. A lot of people have installed them. I understand they are extremely LOUD. Kind of expensive for the amount of material they put into the thing. I was giving consideration to one, but decided to go with a proven company - MagnaFlow.

I have a feeling it is BS. https://dodgeforum.com/tm.asp?m=57793
Read this thread. They don't back the muffler other than defects. That to me means it's BS. If you really sit down and think about how they say it works, it just doesn't make sense. How much temperature differential is there in a pipe where gases are moving at those speeds. Let me know what you think of the emails/thread.

I've got to agree with you on that one. Although, I do understand if it sounded like a glasspack or something.

I have a 02 Ram / 5.9L. The 02/03's did not have a resonator.
It was too loud with just the Aero Turbine muffler. I ordered the resonator and installed it before the muffler (it is now 3" from about 18 inches behind the cat).
This combo sounds very nice - and is not too loud.
Let me put it in perspective. If my stock exhaust was 3 out of 10 (10 being high), just the muffler was a 9. Adding the resonator lowered it to about 5.
My father-in-law has a 04 Hemi - it has the stock resonator. Changing the muffler moved him from a 2 to a 4. My Mother-in-law is not unhappy - so it must not be too bad.
It turns head every time. That's not the reason I got the setup.
On the highway - I used to get 15MPG on the instant MPG readout. I now sit at 17MPG. 62mph - little wind - and it seems to always be a cross-wind these days.
Last weekend, I pulled my 5940lb 5th wheel (at least 6700lbs loaded) and got 9.5MPG. Not bad (I was pushing wind almost half the way).
It is also much snappier and my truck now jerks when shifting 1-2 and 2-3 - meaning more power to the rear wheels.
Lastly - my Father-in-law used to complain how his Hemi used to rev high - shift sloppily - rev and shift again.
After the swap - he says that it accelerates a bit better. The best thing is - it goes through the gears in a much more smooth fashion during hard acceleration.

RE: aero-turbine.com
well i still think its not bad. as long as your not loosing h.p. and they do say the will warrenty it for life. so that alone should be good if you do go with something like glass packs they should last like a year?

The site has an 04 hemi with the stock resonator on sound clip. It is about right on...the one thing they don't give you a clip of is hard acceleration...the aero turbine...sounds very nice until WOT...then it is awesome...people will stop and look when you drop the hammer.
