**** guys. I'm 19 and want it as quiet as possible. It's all about the stealth.


What is the wheelbase difference between the SS and the Hemi Ram? That might be a good indicator if the system will have a chance of fitting.

I just looked it up on KBB, the SS wheel base is 143.5, the QC Ram is 140.5, so the Ram is 3" shorter from wheel to wheel. I've pretty much decided just to go to stock, I know it'll work. I remember back when the Hemi became available in the 1500 truck and I still had my Silverado, Sport Truck Mag did an article on it. They said Keene Bell took a Hemi Ram and gave it the once over to design some aftermarket stuff for it. KB said that the intake and exhaust for the Hemi Ram was very good, minimal if any gains would be found by changing them out. KB did say that they thought that some power could be found in the tuning though. That article has always been in the back of my mind! Just because the exhaust sounds tougher and is louder doesn't mean it helps performance and may actually hurt it. I may not hear the exhaust when stock, doesn't mean it's not working.
