YOU KNOW YOU ARE RIGHT... I had a straight pipe on my
"White ROADBOSS" and NEVER covered the stack and Never had a problem with the turbo either...

Most states require a restrictive device on the exhaust on a diesel Motor. On My Motor that restirctive device is the turbo...... by defintion a turbo is a restrictive device. I belive that dodges came with resonators and not cats. don't get them confused. hope it helps

Only for the 24V year model. 24V engine were able to meet emissions requirements at the time without a cat, so Dodge didn't use them. CR (2003 and up) and most of the earlier 12V trucks have cats though.

thouse are fighting words you know. well right now I am at some what of a stand still. I am debating putting stacks on my truck , or back on my truck they were on there before I bought it and the kid took them off. I am thinking of custom piping it from the turbo back 5" . but to do that I would have to ditch the 105 gallon tank in back. running out west in july will see how much i use it. but ya blab in on here.
