I'm gonna go with one of the ones on ebay. some of them say they are made by Bomz but I don't care.  I'll replace the filter w/ a K&N one.  Curtiplas got a custom exhaust on his Dakota and sond really good, I'll probably go to the same place he did, think he only paid like 200 for it

zero..i bought an "ebay intake", and replaced the cheap filter with a K&N, and there is no difference between my intake and the AEM piece, except for a few hundred dollars, and maybe the AEM is some color other than silver.

my exhaust is custom, and i think that I have the best sounding NA RT coupe that ive heard....many of the aftermarket systems are small diameter, which gives you that high nasal sound.

this video is all that i have of my exhaust, and at the end, i walk up near the CAI, and you can hear that added sound...which is quite a bit.

there is also a video of the mirada exhaust in my youtube account...its a little more radical than the stratus..

Too bad, I just sold mine on Ebay for $70 shipped with a new dryflow filter.

I went with a regular Ram Air instead of the Cold Air intake on my '01 R/T. Ebay $40 and the filter was of a much higher quality than I thought it would be when the package showed up. Ebay is a wonderful place to shop, isn't it?

Nah, forget about turbos...that's for the import crap cars.  Get a vortech and do it yourself or you can get the vortech kit from rippmods.com for $3850.  For 290hp at the wheels, you can't go wrong.

Updated from the photo a few frames above, I did away with the cheaper 6" aftermarket filter that came with the kit from Ebay. I added a 6" tube and a 12" K&N Hi-Flo Filter. 'Viola... Cold air intake.

What do you guys think of the "cheap" mufflers available on eBay?  Ex) this one.

Really I'm looking for a muffler that's relatively inexpensive, and has a somewhat sedated yet noticeable tone at idle and partially-open throttle, and has a nasty bark at full throttle.  Thanks for any input fellas.

Oh, BTW, I drive a 2001 Stratus sedan with the 2.7L.  Check it out here.

I'd go with a straight pipe mod. Cut the muffler off and have a tip welded on. Unless you like the fart can look?

I'm more concerned with sound than look.  I just want something agressive, but not just loud an annoying.

The stock exhaust has 2 resonators after the cat.  What they are referring to is having the muffler cut off of the stock exhaust and having a long tip welded in place of the muffler.  Instead, I bought the Dynomax catback which only has one resonator, mandrel bent 2 1/2" piping and a nice straight thru muffler.  You just need to replace the sissy tip it comes with.
