Okay, I'm new to the Ram but not new to building rocking rides. I have a 2012 Hemi Ram Sport that has an 8" Pro Comp Lift. All stock driveline and exhaust. Here come the questions:

I want an awesome aggressive sound out of my truck and something that's different than Magnablow or Blowmaster. I would like to run 3" an also want to upgrade to 5" black chrome tips. Recommendations?

Y-pipe and cat upgrade worth it? Recommendations?

What's the best way to go for a cold air kit? Keep in mind that I'm upgrading the exhaust.

Ram Head emblems....tailgate and grille......I would like to get ones that are all white. Best place?

Any benefit from upgrading the throttle body on a mostly stock engine?

Catch can....Worth it?

A lot of people here go with either the vararam cai or the S&B cai. Both are great

The emblems I would say just to plasti dip them white, it would be a whole lot cheaper than buying new white ones or getting them actually painted

There is no "real" benefit to the throttle body on a stock engine. Only when you have the cai,headers and cam with it would it start really helping.


I have a exhaust cutout followed by a magnaflow muffler and I really enjoy it. Really loud when I want it to be and quiet when I don't
The catch can is a great mod and would/should be the 1st priority IMO

Muffler I can't help you with as I have the 18" magnaflow and love the way it sounds. Very throaty.

I would probably Just plastidip the emblems, especially if you just want white stock emblems.
Another consideration,
After I saw some "stormtrooper" RAM's, I kind of regret not buying a white truck and doing something similar.

Catch can does catch a lot of crap on my truck, I am glad I installed it.
Since your truck is used, you might want to remove the throttle body and give it a good cleaning. At 11K miles, I had a pretty good build-up of sticky residue on mine.

I would suggest you also look into the cabin air filter mod. A cheap, easy way to cut down on interior dust.
