    Running SuperChips tuner, thinking of adding Gibson exhaust

    I have a 2007 5.7 Hemi 1500 and have been running the SuperChips tuner for about a year now. By the seat of my pants it has made a minor difference in towing my trailer when I hit some big hills. I am thinking of adding a Gibson exhaust and they claim to add another 18 foot pounds of torque...
