Hey all! I was talking with a well known Charger/challenger/ Ram tuner yesterday about finding some more low end power. Eventually I’m going to supercharge my truck and I wanted to know what other parts will help it work better without losing power now. He said long tube headers and either a cat less or high flow catted y pipe. From what I have read, when you take the cats out there’s a fuel/exhaust smell in the cab and I don’t want that. I also don’t want an obnoxiously loud truck either. I have a Magnaflow 18” muffler on the truck now and I like the tone of it now. A little louder is fine but I’ll save super loud exhaust for my next project muscle car with a huge cam.
So, my question is whether to do long tube headers or a Magnaflow high flow catted y pipe and is there any real improvement for low end power with either 1? I tow a 3000 lb boat off and on, otherwise the truck is my daily driver but I don’t race it as it’s got a lift kit and 35x12.5r17 tires and 3.92 LSDs. All opinions are welcome. Thanks in advance!
