    Tired of exhaust drone? Get a J-Pipe

    @TDP154 Ah, the temp of tailpipes i didn't bother measuring! Getting that done tomorrow and heading back to the muffler shop. I have 8 gears and i'm almost certain the j-pipes are the same specs as exhaust but i'll double check with muffler shop. Thanks for the heads up!

    Tired of exhaust drone? Get a J-Pipe

    So i'm in a bit of a pickle here, drone at 1500 is gone and great for city driving, however, drone is now kicking in on highway driving at exactly 64-66 mph at 1900 RPM. The drone is not nearly as bad as before and tolerable for a while but i can't imagine cruising at this speed/ rpm on a 3+...

    Tired of exhaust drone? Get a J-Pipe

    Thanks @brian42. Location does matter though, right? I was under the impression that the 90 degree angle needed to start as far back into the exhaust as possible. I could very well be wrong. Either way, the drone is 50%+ gone. I'm so happy to be able to hear the exhaust rumble!

    Tired of exhaust drone? Get a J-Pipe

    Just got back from the Muffler Shop and WOW! What a difference. Drone zone (1400-1900 RPM) almost non existent. I can still hear it trying to drone once MDS is turned on at 3rd gear but nothing like before. The inside cabin almost sounds stock. I'm concerned that the J-Pipe isn't as close to the...

    Tired of exhaust drone? Get a J-Pipe

    On that note, here is a pic at my exhaust. not 100% sure but installing a j-pipe on the right exhaust might be a tighter squeeze than on the left. Do they each need to run on the side of the exhaust pipe or can they run slightly lower to the side of the pipe to allow it to fit? Does that make sense?

    Tired of exhaust drone? Get a J-Pipe

    Thanks for the heads up and photo @TDP154! I installed my vibrant ultra quiet resonators yesterday. The sound decibels have gone down outside and inside the cabin. Nice rumble at idle and cruising speeds and even better at higher rpm's. Not the sound I was aiming for when i swapped my straight...

    Tired of exhaust drone? Get a J-Pipe

    Thanks guys! Going in this afternoon for my two resonator installs and two J-pipes. I'm thinking of keeping the J-pipe length at around 37 inches. I'll keep you posted!

    J-Pipe length long vs short

    Hi there, I'm new here and recently read and commented on a similar thread. Starting this up here in hopes to capture anyone's thoughts on the following: I'm having a drone issue with my 2021 Laramie 5.7 HEMI e-torque between 1500 and 2000 (i'm rounding up). Based on all the research i've done...

    Tired of exhaust drone? Get a J-Pipe

    Thanks for sharing @TDP154. I'm having a similar drone issue with my 2021 Laramie 5.7 HEMI e-torque between 1500 and 2000 (i'm rounding up). I went with true duals with H pipe and the result was an awful drone. in a span of two weeks I installed a Flowmaster 50 HD. Swapped that out for a...
