Dodge Magnum SXT w RT Exhaust - Muffler Deleted

[Michael2010Senior]

love the license plate cover up rofl V6 Semi-Hemi hell yes. :D if only all v6 owners of a Magnum thought of it that way. I own one myself the SE version and i just say that SE stands for Simply Epic :)!

I want to do this with my magnum, but I have 0 mechanical skills, around how much would this cost with parts and labor?

Quick question, did you cut out your bumper for the 2nd exhaust or did you just buy a new bumper so you can put dual exhaust ?

[McMadden]

@alexetnies I cut out the bumper for the exhaust. I traced the existing cut out on a piece of Bristol board. Cut out the tracing then turned it around to match the opposite side. I then placed it over the bumper matching the location to the existing cut out and traced it into the bumper. Next I used a pair of straight, cut left and cut right tin snips to cut out the shape.

Nice! Can you tell me what year this car is? Thanks!

[McMadden]

2007, but its the same as any 3.5 Charger or 300 for exhaust.

Thanks!

Well thanks for answering all of my question McMadden, I'm gonna be trying that out sometime soon.

No offense but it sounds like a sewing machine with no resonator. Needs more bass

[JoeOnTheRoad]

How did you go about removing the suitcase I have an R/T exhaust on my 3.5L now, I wanted to cut the reso's off but I like how it sounds without the suitcase.

[McMadden]

I had a flange welded on the pipes out of the suitcase. Then had  a straight pipe installed and all made to come off and be reconnected if ir did not perform well and it ended up reconnected. Poor performance.

[JoeOnTheRoad]

Oh but it sounded pretty damn good. What did you end up doing going with a full aftermarket set up or something else?

-Joe

[McMadden]

I put the muffler back on an run the stock RT exhaust. Thanks, I liked the sound at idle, but performance was what I wanted.

[McMadden]

It did sound deeper and growl kinda nice, but it didn't perform well. It would hang longer between shift points. Took longer to build RPM. Just cut it out and install tubing through to the resonators. I had Midas weld on the pipe flanges so it could be removed, but if its permanent they could weld the pipes.
