I want to straight pipe my 03' but ive heard they sound like ricers without a cat. What about drone? Do you get any turbo wine from the tail pipe? Do you guys have any recomendations or sound clips from your 03'?

Thanks for reading

 

the big healthy ctd will never sound like a rice without a cat. roar baby roar. i dont have a drone, cause you cant hear anything over my turbo! but no ricer sound, and 12v's sound better than a 3rd gen.

 

Mine sounds like a big rig. Man I love that sound, sometimes I roll down the rear passenger window just to listen to the sweet sweet music. I get a little drone from 55-60, but its not overwhelming. My advice, pull that lever!

 

LOUD not even close to a ricer. ( maybe on roids)_

 

Ricer, yea whatever. Could swear when I mash the skinny I can see ricer's tremble in fear.

 

with my exhaust and mods, i love it when a ricer tgates me, i give them the old soot salute until the turbo lights off and then we're gone

 

i have never heard a ricer sound like its ripping through air, the way my truck blows doors off innocent bystanders in traffic.

a straighpiped dodge has a deep, deep, even roar. it has my highest recommendation.... even though i think my truck will sound even better with a 5" with 6" duals straightpiped!!

 

with a cat sounds like a ricer to me, sorry guys...

but straight piped sounds sweet!

 

'03's didnt come with a cat.

 

Maybe i'll order the delete kit from Geno's.

 

My 03 HO sounded great with a straight pipe

 

Red neck exhaust upgrade?? had and old ford 460 truck i knocked the guts out of the cat. converter with a long pipe. i got a little better milage and it sounded better. I know it's a poor mans upgrade but is that possible with the 06's?

 

I'll never put a muffler back on mine! I bought a piece of 4", a 3.5"-4" bell, and a 45*.

If you have access to a 10" abrasive chop saw, you can cut a couple of slivers out of the 45*.

Once you mig weld everything together, you end up with no bends, and a slight "dog leg" looking muffler replacement.

 

Definately does NOT sound like a ricer-used to drive one cause i couldnt afford a DODGE/Cummins. i cut the muffler off my dads '03 and left it at that-music to my ears! my dad hates it so im gonna put his muffler back on when im home next week-and im straight piping my new '07 then too. there is some turbo whistle-i drove my dads with the back window open just so i could hear it. honestly right after i cut it off i laid into it and wound it up and heard the turbo and started lookin around for the "cop" that was after me-then i realized it was the turbo. i say nothin sounds better than a straight piped cummins

 

I'll be honest with you...when my Geno's straight pipe went in, it was just ok. I thought it sounded a bit "metallic". But it seemed the more I drove, the better it sounded. I swear, all it needed was some soot buildup in that Geno's pipe to create the sound we all want. After a few weeks, it was great.
