    Really cool video. Daily drive a 13 V8 overland that I still absolutely love. I think the stock exhaust sounds great.

    12:02 it is not so restrictive, my stock 5.7 300c awd , could hit 252km/h, and after made some changes on in/exhaust, no big differences, stock is really well optimized, for ex: front pipes are 63mm, rear are 56 behind suitcase muffler, because it makes gasses to cool down, so if you just replace that front muffler but you do not replace 56mm pipes with bigger, it restricts hot gas flow, and avoid sharp pipes connections because it make turbulence

    I am changing the exhaust on my Hemi powered Jeep GC. The cats broke loose and are rattling around making the engine think there is a misfire. I am hoping for a weight loss and sound gain. I can't tell if its running from 5 feet away. I need to hear a sound and a hemi should not be muffled. If it was a little quieter with the exhaust off and not hot I would consider leaving the pipes off. Not really.

      Once lubed, your can usually push with both thumbs on there metal while pulling with fingers on the rubber.
