1997 Dodge Dakota V6 Magnum Flowmaster 40 Series Muffler Comparison

- I replaced the stock muffler on my 1997 Dodge Dakota SLT (3.9L V6 Magnum engine) with a Flowmaster 40 Series muffler. The old muffler was getting some holes in it, so I decided to replace it. The old tail pipe was rusted to the muffler, so we replaced the whole thing. I was expecting a slight sound improvement but this completely blew me away! This has a louder and better sound than my brother's 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 (5.3L V8), and sounds like a louder version of my dad's 2010 Ford F150 (5.4L V8).

sounds real nice, ive got a 3.9 Dakota and i was starting to think there was no aftermarket exhaust that sounded good for 3.9 dakotas until i saw this video. finally found something to make my truck sound good :)
The sound really makes a huge difference. The more I've driven the truck the more I love it!

I was the same way. I only replaced my muffler because my old one was in rough shape. I was amazed by how good it sounds. The best part is that it is a super simple installation job, and pretty cheap too.
Just ordered my flowmaster 40 series for 2001 ram 1500 3.9. Can't wait!
I got an 02 dakota with the 3.9 and I'm definitely purchasing this muffler
Ha I got a 1993 dodge Dakota and I’m trying to find a aggressive sounding muffler
@@corndogsrule3571 I got a 06 3.7
Hey buddy do you still have your cats on?? It sounds sick. I want to try this on my 2001 Dakota v6 with a super 10 flowmaster.
jk22222sd I’m the same I got a 2001 as well and I want that sound
I just seen this video, I am installing a super 40 on mine next week, i already have the catalytic converter, flow master, and most of what i need, my tail pipe should be here tomorrow, same kind of truck and everything, Hope it sounds as good as yours does, it sound really good to be a single exhaust. good job
+James Mollohan How'd it turn out? Every time I drive my truck, I'm still super impressed by the sound. Really makes a dual exhaust system seem not worth it on these trucks. I don't know that you could get a much better sound, and it's way cheaper.
Fuck yeah
Now I know what to do to my 93 v6 dakota
exactly
Can we get an update? I have a 92 wanted to see if it worked out for you.
Sounds very nice.
Did you leave the resonator on right before the tail pipe? Or did you take that off? I’m thinking about taking mine off of my 2011 Dakota.
Where did you get your flowmaster muffler at and does it have the metal rod that goes into the hangers the ones I’m seeing don’t have the metal rod or did you have to strap it in somehow
Thank you!
ya im needing a new muffler. my stock is almost as load as your flowmaster muffler. but it doesn't sound as refined ,don't get me wrong it sounds real nice for being stock. also sounds better than my friends Dakota which is stock. but i really should replace it until my muffler goes completely out then cops start pulling me over for it being to loud lol. plus i really want that sound
Hello, did you just change the muffler ? Or did some other mod? I just want to change the muffler in my case and I’d like to know, would be happy to get that sound if it only meant changing the muffler
I also replaced the tailpipe out of the muffler, but that was with a stock factory replacement so it shouldn’t have impacted sound at all. You should be good to just swap the muffler!
Thanks for this video.
I just got a new cat on mine I was going to take it off but I wanted it all original but going to do some exhaust work any ideas from the cat back?
Did you take the cat off or did you leave it on?
hi did it give it any performance upgrade ?
hey just ordered the flowmaster super 40 for an 04 dodge ram..I will be able to use the stock tail pipe and if I wanted too also fit a flowmaster tip right? The muffler is 2.5" out and the tip is 3" inlet just surious if that tip would fit.. Thanks for the upload you changed my mind on spending thousands on a whole kit
I obviously haven't seen your truck, but that should work just fine with your stock tailpipe. Also, 3" tips are made to work with 2.5" pipes so that will work well. Good luck with your project. It's a good choice.
Where can I order that I have a Dodge Dakota
I know this over a year old but I was wondering did you get the stock pipe locally or online?
I bought it at a local O'Reilly Auto.
Rees Klintworth thank you very much! and for the quick reply.
No problem!
I have a 2001 dodge ram v6 I've been wanting to add a deeper and better sounding muffler to, alot of people online really seem to down and dog people putting ANY muffler on a v6 truck because it'll sound "ricer" like a honda civic fart-can for example....is this really true? I used to have a v6 mustang dual exhaust and honestly thought it sounded good...my stock exhaust on my truck is really quiet and underwhelming like your stock was in this vid...if just a single exhaust flowmaster sounds this decent and is so cheap I don't think a dual exhaust is worth the money either....thx for any help
I still love the sound of this truck after having the new muffler on for a few years. Other people will always find a way to getcha down about something, but this was a quick and easy mod that was totally worth it for me. As far as single vs dual exhaust, you probably won't get a ton of benefit from adding a dual setup, but I didn't try so I can't say for sure
I put the flowmaster 50 series on (wanted a quieter one) and it does sound "ricer" arg. Not terrible tho.
I hear bad lifter knocks now
Haha no problem.
Hey man is that a super 40 or? Reg
It's just the regular 40 series. I went with this one because it's around half the price of the Super 40
Thanks bud!
Sounds awesome, I didn't know what I wanted to put on mine until I heard this
I can't recommend this setup enough! It's cheap, it's easy, and it sounds so good. I still get excited to drive this truck, two years after putting it on, just because I love how it sounds
The super 44 is louder get put it on
