2016 Ram Sport...14 or 18'' Magnaflow??

[henryhemi]

That 14" WILL get louder as it gets broken in. At least, mine did. Love it. So glad I didn't go with the 18.

Im loving my recently installed 14", about 150 miles on it now. I think it has toned down just a touch but it's probably all in my head. Its pretty loud upon start up and under load, very very quiet while cruising.

Does only having the one exhaust pipe like on my outdoorsman make a big sound difference

Yes, it'll be a little more tame. Best bet for a single exhaust is 3" all the way back from the cats. My old truck was 3" with a 5" tip dumped over the axle and it sounded pretty good, but it was fairly quit until I got long tubes.

mine is 3" from the y back for sure i havent checked by the cats yet. would the 14" magnaflow with no resonator and a bigger tip still give me a good deep tone. this weekend i took the muffler off and put a piece of pipe in its place still have the resonator and it has a decent sound will the setup i listed above be a lot better? thanks for the help

Ordered mine from Moe`s and it`s on its way to me now. Can`t wait to get this in and see if it`s as good as most say it is.

I have a magnaflow 14". Spend a bit more money and get something better.

 

[SwollenMonkey16]

What series is the 14" flowmaster?

Better? Suggestions?

Magnaflow is pretty good quality. About the only thing better is borla and corsa.

what is the part # of magnaflow 14" and 18" you folks are using? When I go to magnaflow website and search by vehicle(2014 RAM 1500 sport), it only displays 18" and 22" models.

also, what do you lose as you go smaller on muffler? I think the stock is 22".

thanks in advance.

Mufflex 14" Magnaflow Dual Exhaust 09-Up Ram 1500 5.7L Hemi

That's the mufflex which comes to fit exactly where your stock one is. Or you can buy the muffler itself (what I did) and have a muffler shop weld it in for probably 60 to 80 bucks. Atleast that's what my quotes were, labor and pipe.

couldn't find any other part numbers but dod14m which is the mufflex, Ill look through for my receipt when I get home, I usually don't through parts receipts away.

looks like it is basically magnaflow #12198 while 18" is #12288. just wondering why Mo has this listed almost $300. #12198 is $88 at Amazon.

because you are looking at a weld in muffler, not a direct fit replacement.

Moes sells the mufflex. It's an exact replacement. Meaning no fabrication work will need to be done. It's plug and play. Verses if you buy the muffler by unselfish a muffler shop will have to bend, cut and weld pipes to make the muffler fit your truck.

My bad. I read your first response too fast. I will do just like you did to make it less expensive. Get it online and have muffler shop weld it. Thanks everyone.

update: thankful i chose 18" #12288. installed today and awesome sound. 14" would have been too loud for me.
