3rd gen exhaust sound..yuck

i'm downloading the second video from diesel dynamics. the first one-4&quot;-sounds horrible. there's a nice rumble to it, but there's also a buzzing sort of sound to it. maybe it's just the video. i dunno...<br><br>btw, this isn't anything against diesel dynamics (they obviously have great stuff), just stating something about the new dodges.

Re:3rd gen exhaust sound..yuck

Hey 98! I have heard one they are very quiet, to me it seemed to sound (with stock exhaust) something in between a 12V &amp; a 24V @ low rpm, &amp; as you got higher it sounded more like a 24V, seemed pretty interesting! <br><br>DRecu!

Re:3rd gen exhaust sound..yuck

564 HP with mild injectors, small turbo, and a box?!? That's unbelievable. I can't wait for the market to finally get up and running on those things. Sounds like there is a lot of potential in it. What size turbo? Similar to a Piers HX40? Or a Piers HX35 (if they make such a thing)? What stage of injectors? BD1, 2? Just what are they similar to is what I'm curious of. How bout the box? Similar to a Comp, or EZ? Just wondering. A little scared to race one now that I know you can have that much power with such little upgrades.
