Doesn't matter to me as 1, I don't use Chrysler. 2, it will bolt to all years and is better than a D35.

Good morning guys. Took the MJ on a road test last night. Buddy looked over and said, I don't think your tech is working. You haven't revved past 3k and we're cruising at 60. He thinks because of no OD, it should be higher.

Need a quieter muffler. The Magnaflow is just a little too loud. Might just throw a Thrush Turbo on it instead. I k ow those aren't loud.

Maybe the lift, tires, all the weight in the bed has something to do with it? Lol...

D'oh! Lol. I took everything out of the bed. All that weight didn't even settle the springs one bit. Still at 6" in rear. Fronts are at 5.25" with those RE 4.5" springs. Still running the 3.55 D35 unroll this weekend as well.

My current muffler is a Magnaflow stainless.(87 dollar muffler) It sounds great on the six cylinders but just do t like it on my new engine. Anyone wanna trade for a Cherry Bomb Pro or Thrush Welded?

Lol nice...I may have consider it...but I'd have to hear it also...
Had a flow master 40 in my 4banger gmc Sonoma it was cool and it help with performance and stomping on the gas on the underpass of the highways but hated it after a while....
I live in a quiet neighborhood and hated to be that guy at 5-530am with the loud exhaust
