Review on πŸ”Š MagnaFlow 12198 Performance Muffler - Straight-Through Design, 3in Inlet/2.5in Outlet Diameter, Satin Finish, Classic Deep Sound by Chris Castro

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great sound, truck feels stronger.

Exactly what I was looking for. I scoured many forums and read numerous reviews before deciding on this one for my 2015 Ram 1500 Big Horn Edition. To me, the drone you see here isn't very noticeable, especially including road noise, music, and everything else that's happening in the car. Not too loud to be obnoxious, but sounds deep and aggressive when you sit on it. This is the only "performance" addition to my truck at the moment. I've read in many places that if you get cold air it will sound even better, I added. I'll try to remember to add to the review afterwards. I'm in Kyu and it cost me 150 to install which I think is high but 3 different stores told me that. I believe this is because this muffler is much smaller than the stock muffler and requires a new pipe to be welded in. In terms of performance, the truck definitely feels stronger. And the throttle response feels a little better. I can't comment on the MPG as I've been messing around too much and my MOH has dropped from constantly gaining rpm and pedaling every opportunity I have at the moment. I've noticed that ECO mode stays on longer, which may result in slightly better MPG once I get back to normal driving.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • There are some nuances
