Paired with multi-piece mandrel-bent 2.5-inch aluminized steel tailpipes, the continuous-radius bends eliminate cross-sectional necking to maintain steady exhaust velocity and scavenging. Routing exits parallel to the outer frame rail, purposefully engineered to maintain critical operational clearance around the OEM hitch receiver and standard spare tire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 Flowmaster Super 44 muffler (single 3\" inlet, dual 2.5\" outlets)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 aluminized mandrel-bent multi-piece 2.5\" tail pipes (slip-together)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 muffler clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1 larger exhaust clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 rubber-insulated hangers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x: auto; margin-bottom: 20px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0; font-size: 14px; min-width: 300px;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eFitment\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e2013-2018 Dodge Ram 1500\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eEngine \/ Chassis\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e3.6L Pentastar V6 \/ DS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStock Output\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e305 hp \/ 269 lb-ft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding:10px; text-align: left; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eReplaces OEM Part #\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eN\/A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2013-2018 Dodge Ram 1500 (3.6L V6 Gasoline and Flex-Fuel models with factory single-inlet muffler)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits all wheelbases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions \u0026amp; Fitment Warnings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this fit the DS Ram 1500?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, this is a fit for the 2013-2018 Dodge Ram 1500 equipped with the \u003cstrong\u003e3.6L Pentastar\u003c\/strong\u003e engine. \u003cstrong\u003eExcludes trucks with factory dual-inlet mufflers, Hemi V8 models, or EcoDiesel engines.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this a direct bolt-on kit?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, this is not a direct bolt-on installation; professional installation is recommended as pipe trimming or minor fabrication may be required, and exhaust tips are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Dodge Truck Standard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered to handle severe utility conditions, this rugged exhaust layout ensures rock-solid durability and full ground clearance whether towing heavy payload or navigating uneven job sites.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VelocityMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67562640670968,"sku":"DS-EBK6U8WH2","price":377.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/1290\/2648\/files\/exhaust-kit-for-dodge-ram-1500-2013-2018-3-6l-1.jpg?v=1790988498","url":"https:\/\/performancechiptuning.com\/de\/products\/exhaust-kit-for-dodge-ram-1500-2013-2018-3-6l","provider":"Performance Chip Tuning","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
