3.5&quot; from the turbo to the inlet side of the muffler, and then 4&quot; to the tailpipe.

Thanks for the info, I am just going to replace the muffler then. <br>Appericate it LinearX

Lots of us go with a Stainless Steel system, It will last as long as the motor.

<br><br>jt, That dual exhaust looks great! Are you concerned about Dodge somehow weaseling out of any warranty claims by blaming the exhaust bomb?

Re:Stock Exhaust??

I don't see how a dealer would void a warrenty because you opened up flow for the turbo. What JT did is allow the turbo to breath more freely and have little back pressure and you want that on a turbo system. I assume he has no muffler in line with the pipes to allow for optimal flow. Looks awsome.

Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get me!

I keep checking JT's album hoping he will add some more pics of his awesome red Ram! How about a side shot and some close ups of the exhaust? <br>

Re:Stock Exhaust??

Well, I do like psting pics of my truck. Glad some people like them. There is a muffler on the truck if you can call it that. It is straight through with no packing. It has a 4&quot; inlet and dual 4&quot; outlets and made of Stainless. I am haveing trouble with my camera.<br><br><br>jt

MBRP Exhaust

Well for kicks I gave MBRP a call this afternoon to ask about their exhaust systems.

Me: &quot;Yeah, you guys got any systems for the 2003 Cummins diesels yet?&quot;

MBRP: &quot;Yes we do! In fact we have a full 4&quot; stainless steel system for the new Dodge Cummins available.&quot;

Me: &quot;Cool! I'm thinking about a stainless system for my truck when I get it.&quot;

MBRP: &quot;Yes and we're pricing them very aggressively.&quot;

Me: &quot;Great! I heard you have a dual stainless system too.&quot;

MBRP: &quot;Hmmm?&quot;

Me: &quot;Yeah, I heard you had a dual stainless system for the new Cummins.&quot;

MBRP: &quot;Mmm, noooo&quot; (trying to sound puzzled)

Me: &quot;Well there's this guy I know about on the internet that has a dual MBRP on his truck right now.&quot;

MBRP. &quot;Oh. Well, OK. There is one truck with a system like that, but they won't be available for at least a couple weeks.&quot;

Me: &quot;Would this truck happen to be a red Dually?&quot;

MBRP &quot;Mmm, Yup.&quot;

Guy seemed pretty cool though. I guess JT's the only customer with this system in all of North America
