BEST BUDGET Exhaust For A Ram 1500 (Under $75) *NO WELDING*

[@blockypiggamer2815]

I did the same thing on my ram a while back and it cost me $40, it’s great, keep up the ram, I love to see it?

[@jamielombardo5292]

I got two 3-inch Cherry Bomb M80 mufflers 435 a piece I lined up the arrows and welded them together so they flow in line and that filled the gap of my original rusty muffler now it's quiet and sounds great with the cherry bombs all for under $100 that's clamps mufflers and Hangers

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Nice!

[@johnnewcomb5162]

I did the outlaw and 5 tip, sounds great. Great job on your setup.

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Nice! Thanks for watching!🤘🏼

[@SpaceAndroidz]

Sounds gorgeous good job

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Thanks!🙌🏼

[@jimlahey4219]

He'll yeah you just made everything so easy for me thanks brother!

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Glad it helped!🤘🏼

[@jimlahey4219]

​@DakotaNationRacing hey man can I ask a question? I own a 2016 ram 1500 5.7l single exhaust is my setup with 34" long and 3" wide?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Mines a 17 crew cab short bed, and ya mine was 3” and i cut the filler pipe at 34”. If i were you though, id just crawl under there and get a rough length measurement off your muffler so you dont run into any surprises! It should be 3” still, im just not sure of the length youll need for your truck!

[@zachbradley9464]

I just wanna be able to hear mine run! I have a 5.7 hemi and the thing is silent when you crank it

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Haha i get it! I just actually threw on a super 44 and it sounds really good, thats an option if you dont wanna do a full on muffler delete!

[@johnnyshd8250]

Good to see somebody that doesn't care if they get dirty.

[@DakotaNationRacing]

If i can do it (and sometimes even if I can’t😂) i can give it a shot! Gettin dirty is just part of it for sure!

[@shlomosnodgrass8890]

Community Update: Hi, again! I know how it feels to be desperate for attention. I've tried everything, too. Recently scored a cherry Toyota Corolla - 2003. Straight-piped and totally pimped it. The babes have taken note. And, quite a few dudes. Hoping to sew some wild oats. I'll keep the possy posted on any 'developments'.

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Please keep us posted!😂👌🏼

God I wish that were me

You should have no problem getting all the men

[@jeffreydiaz7833]

Hey what size wheels and tires are those? Is it lifted aswell? Truck looks good

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Thanks!🤘🏼 They are 285/70 17 tires, not sure the specs for the wheels because they came on the truck when i bought it but they are American racing AR201 in matte bronze. It has just a 3.5” front 1.5” rear level kit on it with airbags in the back to help when towing!

[@1mldn545]

I have a 2007 5.7 hemi and i thought of doing a muffler delete, i was just worried id be obnoxiously loud.

[@davidferrer678]

It won’t. It wakes it up a little more but it’s not obnoxious. Resonator delete and muffler delete is when you start getting obnoxious

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Exactly^ the muffler delete by itself won’t be super extreme, but if you get rid of the resonator as well then you’ll be getting some drone and extra noise. If you are worried about it being too loud you can always put a different muffler back on! Check out my other video where i added a flowmaster super 44 and did some side by side comparisons and see if that helps you make a decision!🤘🏼

[@guillermogaitan527]

I just noticed your video .. great idea , I have a 2017 ram same color like your truck.... Can I ask you for the air bags underneath your truck , brand and where did you order it ? I want to upgrade my suspension rear and front.. Thanks in advance.

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Thanks! Luckily for me, the bags came on the truck when i bought it. But there are a bunch of companies that make rear bags for these trucks, really handy for towing! ill have to crawl under the truck and see what brand they are

[@jeffdavidson3605]

Definitely sounds better might do that to my 2015 Outdoorsman. Doesn't throw any codes jw

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Nope, doesn’t throw any codes. I actually am in the middle of recording a head to head video comparing the muffler delete to a Super 44 muffler i just threw on the truck. So hang tight while i wrap up that video if you want to see the difference before you make a decision!

[@CoryAY82383]

I did the same except a flowmaster 10 series in place of the muffler (left it single exit) and it drones out bad.

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Ya after having it like this for a little bit now, I do notice a little drone every once in a while, but honestly the tires are loud so that’s mostly all i hear, that might be covering some of the extra noise!😂 I purposely just clamped in the pipe so it’ll be easier to pull out that section and get a muffler in there down the road if I decide!

[@rootedinthemiddle2908]

I wish there was a video on the dual exhaust. I’ve got a 2019 with duals.

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Theres lots of vids on duals! I couldn’t find very many videos of singles haha

[@davidbeginnerhunter2973]

Ordered my pipe from summit racing should be in today after work I can't wait to get it installed just need to run to autozone after work for some clamps

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Nice!! I ran mine with the clamps for a few months because I didn’t know how id like the sound, once I decided i liked it i went ahead welded it in so id suggest doing the same if you like how it sounds!🤙🏼

[@staykickedUP]

It’s an 3 inch pipe right

[@MissionaryForMexico]

What about the interconnecting pipe?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Sorry, what do you mean?

[@timsmith8506]

I heard years ago that without a muffler you lose some power and it messes with your fuel efficiency. Less back pressure I think it was called

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Not sure, TONS of people run straight pipes and I’ve never had and issues on any of my vehicles personally, if it does affect anything i could never tell!

[@canadiandualsporting5572]

Mostly that affects 4 cylinders

[@Josh-db8rf]

back pressure has been said by alot of trusted people to be a myth. It's all about the flow/efficiency of the exhaust gasses leaving the pipe. if that flow gets disturbed then it'll mess it up. like cutting cats open and gutting it then rewelding. sure you got some flow opened up but now you've got this big ass bowl where the gasses form up and could cause lots of back pressure

[@nickskicks2239]

What size bolt was on the factory exhaust clams

[@nickskicks2239]

Clamps

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Shoot, I can’t remember off the top of my head, sorry!

[@canamman5682]

What would I do if I have a dual exhaust?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Sorry i only have the single exit, there are lots of videos of guys with duals modifying their exhaust though!

[@FishFarmHuntTV]

Do you think this would sound good on a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Maybe, you’d have to do some research, not sure if i heard it on those trucks!

[@Adam-jx7eq]

Any performance change with rear muffler delete??

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Nothing noticeable, im sure it helped a touch since it has a little better exhaust flow? But I didn’t dyno the truck before and after to know for sure

[@johnnturner9210]

Did you get a engine light?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Nope, no lights

[@johnnturner9210]

What year is yours?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

@@johnnturner9210 2017

[@Borger-we6ee]

would it still work fine if i never welded it and just used the clamps

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Its up to you if you if you want to take that risk or not! I ran it for a few months with just the clamps before welding it up, just to see if i liked the sound or wanted an aftermarket muffler. If those clamps loosen up going down the road then obviously that could be bad, but up to you!

[@jonathanhager3930]

Did you have to open up the ends of the pipe for it to fit over the stock pipe ?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

No i just butted the pipe together and then used my exhaust clamp! I just recently welded it though, i only used the clamps because I didn’t know if i wanted to keep the muffler delete or throw a different muffler in or what!

[@DANGEROUS-DAV3]

Ia that emt or exhaust tube

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Just exhaust tube from my local exhaust shop!

[@TouchofDepth]

Awesome thanks for the idea, what size tires are you running?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Glad you enjoyed! They are “285/70R17” they came on the truck when i bought it, but since i did the level kit i think ill go up to 35’s when these are worn out!

[@TouchofDepth]

​@@DakotaNationRacing holy crap, when you said elbow grease you weren't kidding, that took some finesse to get it out but finally did it 💪about to cut my straight pipe now 🤞

[@DakotaNationRacing]

@@TouchofDepth haha yes! It can be a bit of a chore!! I ran mine with the clamps for about 3 months and just recently, and after I decided i liked how it sounded i got rid of the clamps and welded it! thats the only reason i didn’t weld it together first, in case i wanted to throw a muffler or something on there! But i love how it sounds as is, good luck wrappin it up!🤙🏼

[@TouchofDepth]

@@DakotaNationRacing shoot the clearance is so tight, it's really close to the air bags not sure how comfortable I am with it 😶 I cut it at 34 inches and I don't have much free play at all

[@TouchofDepth]

​@@DakotaNationRacing dang I notice your muffler has a heat shield for the air bags ours must have come with stock air bags I put on air lift air bags 😅 might need to get some exhaust wrap or something

[@JoeSanabria]

What year was the is Ram 1500?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Mine is a 2017!

[@tjatkinson88]

Nice!!! What wheels/tires are you running?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Thanks! The wheels are “American Racing AR201 in Matte Bronze”, and the tires are “bf goodrich all terrain ko2” in 285/70 17.

[@davidbeginnerhunter2973]

How did u get the original clamp bolt off muffler?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

I used penetrating spray and mine came right off! Are you still having issues with it?

[@davidbeginnerhunter2973]

@Dakota Nation Racing I sprayed them both a day ago but 1 came off and the other snapped I used the grinder and cut the original clamp. All good now though just worried about the hanger where muffler was rattle etc.

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Oh i gotcha!

[@davidbeginnerhunter2973]

And the tail pipe fell off doesn't really line up well with straight pipe in between

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Hmm that’s weird, mine was basically a straight shot, just clamped right into place! The handful of people ive talked to that did it, didn’t have that problem either!

[@tylerthompson872]

Where did you get 3inch?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Local exhaust shop! They just cut it to length and sold it to me

[@tylerthompson872]

Just finished mine today!

[@anthonyirvolino3685]

what muffler is on it

[@DakotaNationRacing]

It a muffler delete, so i just removed the factory muffler that came on the truck!

[@ShadeKracken]

What size pipe is it that you used as the filler piece?

[@DakotaNationRacing]

Just 3”!

[@DakotaNationRacing]

I cut it to 34” for the length

[@maguirelavigne8194]

My bolts are completely rusted off unsure what to do

[@DakotaNationRacing]

I hit mine with some penetrating oil but they weren’t to bad, if yours are really bad you may have to get creative to get them off and maybe cut them? Hopefully it doesn’t give you to much of a headache!

[@ygdirty3097]

Ok thanks bro

[@ygdirty3097]

Have had a tip on mine even before muffler delete but the tip makes a huge difference the drone noise isn’t there at all
