    Talking Next question.. Stacks or side pipes??

    No.. I'm not kidding.. Wife wants stacks. She already held an informal poll at her bar and the stacks are winning.. I'm kinda thinking Lake pipes.. Help me out here..
    Same truck different question...
    http://www.turbo-mopar.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=23860



    I have the truck choked down to single 3" with a dump before the axle now. I had 3" duals on it but pulled them when I thought I was going to sell the blower..
    Keeping the blower now and it looks like I need to get creative. This body style lends itself to so many options..
    And for the technical guys.. Boost has decreased every time a flow mod has been done..

    Re: Next question.. Stacks or side pipes??

    The only way I'd do stacks... if you can get some sorta step side bed and some Warlock type, Little Red Exspress Lookin' decals for the doors

    Side pipes? Hmm.... gotta think about that one.

    I'm also kinda for 'out the back' but I guess this is 'her' truck right?

    Sorry, stacks don't belong on Dakota's unless someone puts a diesel in it! I thought about putting a 4BT in mine actually LOL.
    But anyway, if it must be one of the 2, definitely side pipes. The stacks will look very corny. Besides, on a ram anyway, anything less than 5'' stacks looks too small, and on a dakota I don't know about 4'' but I still think that would look really ridiculous. Trust me, I just saw 4'' stacks on a ram the other day and was like WTF those are tiny pieces of crap. I've also seen 3'' stacks on a gas ram, OMG that was actually comical. 1'' makes a huge difference, because 6'' stacks looks huge on a ram, and I've seen 7'' which is on the other end of ridiculous.

    I will get you a pic of my brother's 02' 2500 cummins ram with 5'' stacks, looks friggin sweet. But of course, he has the power to show it off too with a nice smoke show if he wants...500 RWHP and 1100+ ftlbs.

    His truck sounds exactly like a semi anyway.

    BTW, I've seen a stack on a single cylinder diesel walk behind snowblower. Funny video, thing was chugging the black smoke throwing the snow like 50 feet!

    Re: Next question.. Stacks or side pipes??

    I'm starting to think lakers too..
    Aside from the negative feedback on the stacks I'd have to relocate the gas tank and a multitude of emissions stuff to do them or to do duals to the rear....

    Out the bottom of the bed in front of the rear tire.

    Then the tire store won't try to lift your truck by the lakers.

    Thought of that too but it'd have to run it through the bed quarter cause the frame hangs so low..
