Minimize Backpressure - The secret to getting more out of your diesel engine is to give it lots of cool, clean air. The only way that you can get fresh air in is to get the hot air out.

Drop exhaust gas temperature by up to 200 degrees Fahrenheit and set the stage for all the performance you want. An MBRP performance exhaust system is the starting point to getting the most from cold air intakes, programmers, modules and downloaders.

About MBRP Exhaust
Browse MBRP Performance Exhaust Systems Online by Make, Model, and Year. For over twenty years MBRP Exhaust has been delivering performance enthusiasts the most in power, the most in product quality, and the most in customer responsiveness you could possibly expect from exhaust. It all began with the now famous B&B Eliminator, which soon achieved the status as the best selling performance snowmobile silencer of all time. Starting from little more than a vision and an absolute passion for all things performance MBRP inc. is now at the forefront of performance exhaust technology. Marshalling over ten decades of manufacturing and marketing expertise between them, the MBRP design team developed a line of performance diesel exhaust products that has made the rest of the industry take notice, and rush to catch up.

Offering all of its diesel systems in aluminized, T-409 stainless, T-304 stainless, aluminized black, and with and without a muffler ensures that there is an MBRP exhaust for every customer's need and pocketbook. Full bolt-on design and clear, well written instructions mean that consumers can install most of MBRP's systems with minimal tools and in under forty-five minutes. And for everyone, toll free technical support that can talk even the least experienced installer through the process.

MBRP offers many kits in both single and dual outlet configurations. While the performance gains are the same for duals and single systems, the duals offer a deeper more aggressive sound over the single system. This is due to the extra tail pipe and the fact that most dual systems have a slightly different muffler configuration than the single systems.

MBRP even manufactures their "Smokers" kits, which are single and dual in-bed STACK kits to deliver to the hardcore enthusiasts! These kits are available in an assortment of sizes and styles, such as 5" and 6", with turnouts and mitre (angle) cuts. Smokers kits are even available in the new popular BLACK finish for that truly sinister look!!!

The muffler used on all of MBRP's diesel systems is a straight flow through design with a spiral louver core. The muffler is packed with stainless steel wool which is then wrapped with a ceramic fibre blanket to ensure longevity of the muffler. This combination creates the deep mellow exhaust note that MBRP systems are known for.

While performance gains vary depending on the vehicle, you can expect a gain of 5% to 10% in horsepower and torque. For example, with a 2005 GM Duramax diesel, you will see a gain of 18 HP. and 28 ft/lbs measured at the rear wheels. You can also expect a reduction in exhaust gas temperature (EGT) by approximately 200 Degrees F.

Reviews

5” exhaust 1999 dually 3500

"When received the product some of the pipe was bent damage from delivery. Also some of the pipe was not fully sized to the correct diameter. Had to cut the pipe to make the ends fit and also use old pipe and clamps due to hangers not aligning in the correct spots. After finally managing to get it installed it does sound good."

Q&A

Will this fit a 97 3500 regular cab and chassis?
If you have a Cab and Chassis you will have to use this hanger MBRP-HG6100 & may require some length be cut off of one of the extension pipes in the kit.
Will this exhaust system fit my 01 dodge ram 3500 5.9 24 value cummins 2-Door cab and chassis
Yes, this exhaust kit will work with your truck, but may require some length be cut off of one of the extension pipes in the kit.
Does this kit work on a four door long bed?!
Yes all our exhaust kits are designed to work on a crew cab long bed. If you have a shorter truck a section of pipe will not be used.
Will this fit my 2000 extended cab? Stock Turbo, currently has the 3in exhaust.
Yes that will fit your application, these are intended to fit the longest cab and bed configuration that these trucks came with, anything shorter would just have to have the intermediate pipe cut down.
Will this fit my 02 dodge ram with a pacbrake on it?
There should not be any fitment issue with that exhaust and the Pacbrake kit. It is recommended possibly putting a heatshield (my truck has a thin piece of metal between the exhaust and the bag) on the Pacbrake bag to prevent to much heat getting transferred to the rubber. -Mark
