SRT8 EXHAUST ON RT?

Has anyone put the stock SRT8 catback on a RT? Wondering if the 2.5" exhaust would offer any performance gains, or just sound/ look better!

Thanks in advance

I recently heard of someone doing just this on a Charger Daytona w/Mopar Performance heads. Reportedly Low end was enhanced and throttle response was improved dramatically.

In the past I thought it may not have enough backpressure but this proved me wrong.

Hemi31 tried this and here is his review,
With nothing to do today I went out in the garage and spent some time fitting the stock SRT exhaust to my AWD R/T.A bit of a PITA but not to bad.After fitting the 2.75" catback to the 2.5 Catpipes I took the R/T out for a test drive.Acceleration sounds great,so does normal cruise,but then it went into MDS!OMG,WTF?IT sounds horrible!The buzzing of the MDS is magnified so bad it sounds like a 125 dirtbike.If anyone is thinking of doing this don't unless you are going to get rid of MDS with a cam.As of now the stock exhaust is back on and staying there!

I also heard that when MDS kicks in there's drone.
