Top 3 BEST EXHAUST Set Ups for DODGE RAM 5.9L MAGNUM V8!

[@717UT]

Whenever I jump in my second gen and start it up, I hear this guy in my head "BEAST of a truck!" It's my beater, but it always makes me smile.

[@chrishansen7004]

Absolutely love second gen dodges gas or diesel I'd like to have a built 408 put in one but they're already hard enough on gas stock..

[@alexmitchell7083]

I have stock bottom end, edelbrock performer heads, comp cam, 4.10’s with 33’s and I’m getting 14.5mpg. Making a ton of torque is why, I suppose. I’ve owned 2 other 5.9’s both bone stock. My 2wd got 11, my 4x4 got 9.

[@5.9manualzj]

I swapped a 5.9 into a 97 Grand Cherokee, and put an NV3500 manual 5 speed behind it, and I get 16 avg, but on the highway I see 26mpg on the overhead computer.

Do the right gearing with a 408 and you might get better mileage if you can keep your foot out of it

[@josevaldes6748]

I have a 01 24V with a 5” exhaust and just got me a 96 5.9 V8 just like this one with the exception of all the rust lol

[@spencerclarkson7578]

Looks wise I loved the brown one, but sound wise I liked the magnaflow the most. Straight piped after that and then flowmaster last

[@justingrabenstein9520]

I had a SLP loudmouth 1 on mine with gutted cats. Single 3" all the way back. Sounded amazing. Loudmouth took the straight pipe farting sound away unless you were wide open on the throttle

[@petewadnlk6756]

I'm original owner of my 01 ram which happy to say still love it and still looks like day one. Pretty awesome for a black not garage kept NJ truck and nope not rusted or rot. I changed the exhaust many years ago put headers on and flow masters super 10'S loud and proud. Just will never be able to even come close to that sound with a 6 cylinder. I. Hoping to keep this for another 23 years if I live that long 6:33 6:33

[@TheTechCguy]

I drove one of these with the 5.9! 1999 Ram 1500! Had 35s and a whole 7 inch lift. These days, though, with gas prices being what they are it's now a lot harder to live with one of those. Lol. Childhood and nostalgia, man! I was a little kid when these were brand new in the late 90s.

I'm rocking a 98 1500 5.9 with the magnapack and a wheelside dump on the 2.25" pipe, and I've added a DC Sports 3.75" x 9" bolt-on to it, and it sounds better than pretty much all of these. Very deep rumble tone while idling and it roars down the road with quite the snarl when I let up on the pedal.

[@CurbsideCreations]

What was the last exhaust system on the 5.9L ? Im thinking about getting that setup

[@katieneubaum4284]

It was an 18in Magnaflow magnapack w/ a 2.5 to 2.25 y-pipe going into 4in rolled tips. I have a a similar setup using the magnapack on my 2nd gen and it’s a good balance between loud/crackly on hard acceleration and deceleration, but not obnoxious when you’re doing 70+ on the highway or just cruising around town. I highly recommend it. I’ve gotten plenty of compliments on it around town when punching it and it’s only JUST quiet enough to not piss my neighbors off on cold-starts.

[@marksr8784]

Just bought a 95 Ram 1500....5.9 liter.. Once inspected it's on 😁🇺🇲🍻

I actually should mention 2003 was the final year for the 5.9L 360CID V8 MAGNUM not 2002. Which is a common misconception because when the 5.7L Hemi was introduced it was more popular due to it being a Hemi as a result there were significantly less 5.9L 360CID V8 MAGNUMs produced for the 2003 model year

[@chrispenny1422]

Whats the 2nd one

[@diesel_enduro]

I think the last one was a 4.7 if not a hemi I don't think they put 5.9 v8 in 3rd gen

[@eighthofmayrainyday]

he said it's an 02 meaning its a very early 3rd gen and first year 3rd gens had the 360/5.9 magnum, but they switched it out for the hemi in 03 i believe

Make sure you do not let your exhaust pipes stick into the exhaust tips. Make sure you cut them so they only go into the exhaust tip one and 5/8 inches or else it will change the sound if they were not equal, it will not be a tuned sound
