Single Exhaust?

[ELITEQB]

On my truck, there is only a single exhaust, will that hinder the noise even if I go out and get like a Magnaflow 18"? Or will it still sound pretty good?

Edit: I drive a 2006 Ram 1500 SLT 4x4

I have actually found the single exhaust to be a little louder than those that have the single in/dual out mufflers. The 18" Magnaflow is my favorite all around muffler for sound and performance.

Thanks for the reply, and I really don't know anything about vehicles at all, I'm trying to get into it... So would you recommend the 18" Magna Flow? Is there anything else I should also look at?

Anything else far as other performance parts or what? The magnaflows have great sound.

Performance Parts

We can hook you up with just about anything performance wise. Anything done to the truck currently or is it still 100% stock?

100% Stock excepts I have a black wesson brush guard, black running boards, and 15% window tint...

I'm looking to make it loud, more efficient, and faster/stronger would be icing on the cake.

I have to go to performance bc my parents won't let me lift it and I'm on a budget so tires and wheels are tough...

Tuner, gears, intake are gonna make the truck a whole new toy

Superchips Flashpaq 03-09 Dodge Ram Gas Trucks

Motive 4.56 ration Front ring and pinion gear set for Dodge Ram 4x4s. This is for the 8.0" front differential.
Motive 4.56 Gears for 9.25" Rear

For intake we just need to lable it as a 4.7 motor and get you going.

Single exhausts are also less restrictive than a dual but muffler wise a 18" Magnaflow or even an AeroTurbine 3030 would sound great (I had that on my old '07 with a single exhaust). Removing your resonators also give you better tone & volume.

It's always hard trying to choose an exhaust, your best friend would be YouTube at this point to determine what sound you want.

Thanks for the reply, but I have absolutely no idea what any of those 3 things do... so can you dumb it down a little... I'm trying to learn

The first thing is a Superchips tuner that will allow you to tune your truck. Very user friendly and will get you a few more HP. The Motive 4.56 are new gears for the truck which will make it pull harder from a stop. The Superchips you can install, the gears are better left to a shop with experiance because it is very time consuming and requires being set corretly.

Perfect timing on creating this thread!

How much do you think an 18" Maganflow and a good Cool Air Intake would set me back?

 

[KGBIGCOUNTRY]

Around $400 for the pair. If you wanna hold off on the intake and get the tuner first you will see better #'s for around the same price.
