i've run them before on previous gen Ram's but havent seen any offering for the 5th gen... thanks in advance!!
 
Realistically, there will not be any difference removing the cats. Modern catalytic converters are fairly high flow, and not much to be gained by removing them. Maybe if the design of the y-pipe itself can be improved in. And then you still have to figure out a way to "trick" the PCM to not throw codes for catalytic converter inefficiency.
 
I would want it more for sound than anything else... i'm used to this damn Borla ATAK and it sounds tame now lol!

Well, one thing you gain is you never have to worry about cat thieves cutting your truck up anymore.
 
with you’re borla do you have kooks headers?
 
I have a bora cat back, and been holding on the headers for the exact same reason, the only one with an X pipe os the stainless works with high flow cats.

And thats the one I’m waiting for them to reapond to my communications, Kooks they do have it with Y pipe, but its too expensive, ARH it doesn’t show of a Y pipe or X are indlided

I ordered the kooks they had a sale not to long ago just waiting for them to show up I’ll let you know
 
Update:

So I installed the BBK 1/3/4 shorties and made a custom X pipe with 2 outlets and run 2x 3" pipes with magnaflow mufflers, I was so happy with it until the headers cracked and broke for the second time.

My advice get a better-quality ARH or KOOKS, unfortunately AHR are on back order, and make the custom exhaust with X pipe it sounds good, run flawless and unrestricted
