Exhaust Kit for Dodge Ram 1500 (2013-2018) 3.6L

High-Flow Dual Muffler-Back Exhaust Kit for 2013-2018 Dodge Ram 1500 (DS)

What it Does: The Dual Muffler-Back Exhaust Kit replaces the restrictive factory single-outlet muffler assembly on the 2013-2018 Dodge Ram 1500 to reduce exhaust backpressure, improve thermal dissipation, and optimize acoustic tuning.

The Stock Dodge Ram 1500 Exhaust Restriction

The OEM exhaust on the fourth-generation DS platform uses a massive, multi-chambered factory muffler and restrictive crush bends that choke off-idle gas velocity on the 3.6L Pentastar V6. This OEM design traps thermal energy, increases parasitic pumping losses during higher engine loads, and entirely suppresses exhaust notes into an underwhelming hum.

The Engineering Solution

This kit upgrades the system post-catalytic converter using a legendary Flowmaster Super 44 two-chambered performance muffler featuring a single 3-inch inlet split into dual 2.5-inch outlets. 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.

What's Included

• 1 Flowmaster Super 44 muffler (single 3" inlet, dual 2.5" outlets)
• 2 aluminized mandrel-bent multi-piece 2.5" tail pipes (slip-together)
• 8 muffler clamps
• 1 larger exhaust clamp
• 4 rubber-insulated hangers
