Never owned a Ram [Dodge] before. Was recommended one by a cousin.

I'm so glad he did!

Purchased a 2012 Ram 1500 Laramie RamBox Hemi 5.7L 4X4 about 2 weeks ago.

Bone stock except for the exhaust.... couldn't handle that y-pipe OEM crimp and aweful sound.

Here's some pics...

Magnaflow 16869 with 5" welded pipes that come with it and a Magnaflow 10778 Y-pipe with OEM resonators deleted.

Looks a lot better IMHO [fills the OEM cutouts perfectly] and sounds even better than the junk Ram decided to go with.

Quite and throaty at idle that comes alive at WOT. Absolutely no drone anytime [MDS included]

I've always been a Corsa and Borla fan [on previous pickups and muscle cars] but went Magnaflow after research and my exhausts guy's recommendations.

One of, if not, the best mod I've done to any vehicle.

I'm very content.

Thanks for the kind words.

Yeah, I'll do some mods over the next few months but nothing extrodinary.

I had a 2005 Ford F150 that I modded a little too much [for my liking] and lost a decent amount prior to selling it. Live and learn....

Can I post pics of it [the 2005 F150] here so people can see or is that not allowed because it doesn't have the Ram logo?
