MBRP Aluminized 4 Down-Pipe
1994–2002 Dodge Ram 2500 / Ram 3500
DAL401
Overview:
The MBRP Aluminized 4 Down-Pipe is engineered for Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 trucks from 1994 to 2002, designed to enhance exhaust flow and maximize turbo efficiency. This down-pipe is ideal for enthusiasts who demand more from their diesel trucks, offering a direct and unrestricted path from the turbocharger to the exhaust system. By upgrading to this high-quality component, drivers can experience improved power delivery and reduced exhaust gas temperatures, contributing to better overall engine performance and longevity.
Built for those who push their trucks beyond stock limits, the MBRP down-pipe is a crucial part of any performance exhaust upgrade, especially for turbocharged diesel applications. It is particularly suited for vehicles without catalytic converters, ensuring optimal flow and power gains.
Key Features:
This down-pipe combines precision engineering with durable materials to deliver reliable performance improvements. Key features include:
- 4-inch aluminized steel construction for corrosion resistance and durability
- Designed specifically for 1994–2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 models
- Jig manufactured to ensure precise fitment and alignment
- Dual-wall 4-inch exhaust tip for enhanced exhaust flow and sound quality
- Reduces exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) to protect turbocharger and engine components
- Improves turbocharger efficiency by minimizing backpressure
- Compatible with vehicles lacking catalytic converters (not for use with catalytic converter-equipped trucks)
- Facilitates noticeable power gains and throttle response improvements
Construction & Design:
The MBRP down-pipe is crafted from aluminized steel, offering a balance of strength and corrosion resistance to withstand harsh operating conditions. Its 4-inch diameter tubing is designed to optimize exhaust gas flow, reducing restrictions commonly found in stock down-pipes. The dual-wall tip adds durability and helps maintain exhaust velocity, contributing to a more efficient turbo spool and improved sound characteristics.
Precision jig manufacturing ensures that each down-pipe fits perfectly within the factory exhaust layout, simplifying installation and maintaining proper alignment with the turbocharger outlet and exhaust system.
Performance & Sound
By replacing the restrictive stock down-pipe with this MBRP unit, drivers can expect lower exhaust gas temperatures, which help protect the turbocharger and improve its longevity. The increased exhaust flow reduces turbo lag and enhances boost response, resulting in smoother and more powerful acceleration. Additionally, the dual-wall tip contributes to a deeper, more aggressive exhaust note without excessive drone, enhancing the driving experience.
Installation & Fitment:
The MBRP Aluminized 4 Down-Pipe is designed for a direct bolt-on installation on 1994–2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 trucks. Installation requires no major modifications when used on vehicles without catalytic converters. It is recommended to verify the absence of a catalytic converter before installation, as this down-pipe is not compatible with emissions-equipped models. Professional installation is advised to ensure proper fitment and sealing.
What's Included:
- One 4-inch aluminized steel down-pipe
- Dual-wall 4-inch exhaust tip
- Installation hardware (where applicable)
- Detailed installation instructions
Ideal For:
This down-pipe is perfect for Dodge Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 owners from 1994 to 2002 who are looking to upgrade their exhaust system for improved performance and durability. It is especially suited for diesel truck enthusiasts who want to reduce turbo lag, lower exhaust gas temperatures, and gain extra power without compromising reliability. This product is also ideal for those running non-catalytic converter setups or custom exhaust systems.
Emissions Note
This down-pipe is intended for use on vehicles without catalytic converters and is not compliant with emissions regulations for vehicles equipped with catalytic converters. It is not CARB-approved and should not be used on emissions-controlled vehicles.
