It's the one that came with the motor, it must be for the NAG trany. The truck converter has 4 bolts not 3. Thanks for pointing that out, I'll have to order a truck one.
 
well I discovered something new this weekend. I found out that you can use the factory manifolds backwards (i used a jeep cherokee and a durango (because they are semetrical on the angle of the outlets) you have to drill and tap new mounting holes in the heads, but they will bolt on and clear everything just fine. I did this for the ease of mounting a set of turbos. Ooh yeah btw I used the TTI motor mounts. So if anyone plans on going that route you know how to do it. I am planning on trying a set of truck manifolds as they shoot straight back to the firewall (normally) but hopefully the provide a better angle for the turbo setup. I'll keep you guys posted.
 
I know it doesn't help anybody, but I just ordered a set of the TTI headers today. I can't wait to get them in the next week!

Question, what size is the collector on the Dodge Ram exhaust manifold? Im trying to hook up the factory exhaust manifold and was wondering if a Flowmaster #15938 ball and socket 2.5" collector would work. THANKS
 
they there fellow dt member. Let me see if I have a a small chunk of exhaust for you. I might have the ball part from the factory exhaust. And would send it to you for shipping. I'll check for it this weekend and get back to you.
 
Hey THANKS!!

I got 22,000 miles of running a rich 10 to 1 A/F ratio using ProChargers UniChip for tuning. My stock cats arent happy. I plan on removing the stock exhaust but leaving the stock manifolds. This way I can return to stock for the Lifetime Powertrain Warranty. LOL

If you got both sides, I will take them. Cut them to 12" stubs for easy shipping. Thanks again.
 
Oki wanted to update a little I have found that a set of ram shortys sort ofwork for a front mount turbo setup. I was given a set of used dynatech shortys and found that the passenger side ram manifold flipped backwardswill fit on the passenger side of a Hemi in a duster. Buythe welds have to be removed and the flange flipped, so that it will bolt to the headcorrectly. It would save a Tom of time in fabing up both sides. As only the drivers side needs to be fabed up. I plan on postingup pics once I getthem donefo you all to see what I'm talking about. Until then hope this helps someone.

pics ??
 
I'll get some as soon as there is something to get pics of. All I did was drop the header in place and cut up the drivers side. I'll snap a pic or two this coming weekend
