Depending on the dealer, that might do it. No reason it should, but why open Pandora's box right out of the chute.

save your money on the intake. the exhaust is strictly for sound and not performance gain as long as you understand that.

if money is burning a hole in your pocket you can contribute to my Power Wagon fund. I can give you my venmo lol

is there a exhaust that can make a hurricane sound good??

So tiresome with the 'save your money' lines. If you want it to sound better, yes get an intake and exhaust. No, they will not void your warranty. Only recommendation, use a dry filter, not an oiled one.

If you want something to sound better on the truck...absolutely without a doubt an intake and exhaust will do that.

Depends on your concept of 'sounds good'. If you like the sound of an American V8? Then no, of course not, it isn't a V block and it isn't 8 cylinders an an uneven firing order (you know, the thing that creates the 'rumble'). If 'sounds good' is a better tone than stock, then most aftermarket exhausts would make it sound good.

People think straight pipes on HEMI sound good and sound like

Look into the AWE Exhaust as well. I just watched a video last night and yes I know, you don't always get the full sound, but anyways. Check into them or Stainless Works.

Not they won't void warranty, but HIGHLY recommend DRY filter only. If worried, put stock airbox back on when taking to dealership.

I have read issues on here with the K&N cold air kit throwing a check engine light. Would love to know if this is true or not.

I've had my K&N CAI intake installed for over 1,000 miles with no codes. I'm not sure where that misinformation came from.
OP if you want to hear the twin turbos at work from spool up to blow off valve I recommend getting the K&N CAI.
I also put a FILTERWEARS Pre-Filter A116K over the K&N air filter for added protection.

I wouldn't call it misinformation at all. I got several P0071 (IAT, Intake Air Temperature) on my '25 Limited after installing the K&N. According to my JB4 app, my IAT was pegged at 200F+. It doesn't seem like a good idea to run the turbos that hot.

I removed the intake for now...

I will reconsider if I get a Cervinis Ram Air hood:

I did just get my AWE Exhaust installed. Sounds great! Little loud though, we'll see if I get used to it.

Exhaust will break in, definitely loud at cold start, quiets down as it heats up.
