3.5 inch exhaust

[AlleyCat]

Who is running this in their high power builds? What is the part number to order? I have long tube American racing 2 inch headers.

 

[Marc W]

Not sure what you’re looking for. ARH has a 2x3.5 header. I have those. The X-pipe on that is 3.5 but the mufflers step down to 3.0. I had to build a custom muffler setup to keep the 3.5 all the way back.

 

[AlleyCat]

Ahhh. Ok. I probably have the arh 2 by 3 inch. So unless the header was changed I will be with the 3 inch pipe.

Yes. They just came out with the 3.5” collector in the last year. I purchased the headers and 3.5 X-pipe and not the 3.0” mufflers that come in the complete system. Then I custom fit the 3.5” straight thru Flowmaster Race mufflers. Alex at BBP said that my motor would benefit from the bigger system.

Key point. You are in the minority of people who might need (not want) a 3.5" exhaust system.

I agree. That is probably why the ARH 3.5” system reduces to 3” when it gets back to the mufflers. Either that or they’re too cheap to make 3.5” mufflers. 😂 While I’m the one making decisions on what to go with on my build, much of that is based on asking questions of the right people and going with the answers. When the man building my engine (Alex Jones at BBP) says that in my case the bigger exhaust will work.... I take that advice. A too big exhaust on a motor that doesn’t need it will be counterproductive. My advice to anybody making decisions on what to go with concerning mods is to ask a source like BBP that has experience to know what actually works in harmony with what you’ve got and where you’re going to go.

Necking down pipes is just fine as the exhaust gases cool significantly as they move downstream and less volume is required (and more velocity) as they cool.

If anyone doubts this go for a drive and then grab your exhaust tip, then go grab just behind your cat, and then go to the hospital.

Electric cutouts as close to the header as possible and doesn't matter what size the exhaust is

 

[WhipCat]

I have the ARH 3.5” race exhaust.

Sounds nice also

 

[Best Vapor]

Looks fantastic

I'll wait for your Youtube video demonstration.

OP and Marc - have a sound clip of your set up?

We put one on a heavy hitting street car. Still sounds great with headers and catless mids:

The Touring Edition is a full 3” straight-through stainless steel catback configuration capable of delivering optimal power while remaining drone-free throughout the entire rev range. Featuring a precision-engineered H-pipe and AWE’s patented drone-canceling solution, 180 Technology®, the Touring Edition delivers deep, rich exhaust notes that coax you to redline.

Catering to the feigns of big power, the Touring Edition features engineered provisions to accommodate larger, high performance driveshafts and differentials.

Perfect tone, compliments of AWE 180 Technology®.

As exhaust gases exit the 6.2L and 6.4L engines and flow into an AWE 180 Technology® equipped resonator, they pass through strategically located ports, and into reflection chambers. Sound waves, carried by these exhaust gasses, bounce off the walls of the reflection chambers. By controlling the size and location of the ports and the chambers, we also control when the sound waves exit the chambers. The specific timing of when the reflected sound waves rejoin the main exhaust flow creates a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree out-of-phase sound wave that cancels out problematic frequencies. More on AWE 180 Technology® in the tab above.

Important fitment notes:

The Touring Edition Exhaust is available as non-resonated or resonated. We recommend the non-resonated variant for vehicles equipped with the factory headers. If your Challenger is equipped with aftermarket headers, we recommend going resonated. Have stock headers but planning to go aftermarket later? No worries, you can swap in the resonated mid sections with ease via an AWE Resonator Conversion Kit. Hit us here if you’re in need of this conversion kit.

Track Edition Exhaust

For those who like it raw and rowdy, the Track Edition is for you. The Track Edition shares the same integrated H-pipe and precision engineering as its Touring Edition counterpart, minus AWE’s patented drone-canceling solution, 180 Technology®.

In place of the 180 Technology® resonator in the rear lies a Track Edition straight section. As a result, this version is known to get (really) rowdy in mid range acceleration and deceleration, and may be too much for many. Due to this reason, AWE Track Edition Exhausts cannot be returned based on sound preference. You’ve been warned.

Conversion kits:

We made it easy to convert between Track and Touring Editions if you decide at a later date to change your volume.

Tip Options:

The Touring and Track Edition Exhausts are available with quad 4” double-walled slash-cut tips in either diamond black or chrome silver, as well as fitments to retain the OEM tips.

What’s in the box?

Complete Touring or Track Edition Exhaust, four 4” slash-cut tips in desired finish (if applicable), and all necessary hardware for installation.

Wow. That was a barrage of info. I just took some pics of mine yesterday. ARH 2x3.5 with 3.5 Flowmaster Race muffs

@Marc W
Well exhaust is not my Forte yet!
So I put everything In at once and hopefully will a answer the main questions.

That’s great! I was just surprised that somebody took the time and effort to do that. 🤗. A lot of good info for shoppers there.
