Two New Ram 1500 RHO MagnaFlow Exhaust Options Unveiled for Hurricane Engine Cranking Up the Volume By Tim Esterdahl Published: 2025-08-25T12:30:00+00:00 Updated: 2025-09-29T22:54:19+00:00 ![Featured image]() Aiming to amp up the sound, two new Ram RHO MagnaFlow exhaust options have been unveiled for the Hurricane engine bringing a deeper rumble to the sport truck. The collaboration between MagnaFlow and Ram will be the brand’s first accessories through the [Mopar Direct Connection Affiliated Accessories Program](). “Our customers told us they wanted more attitude from the Ram 1500 RHO, and we’re here to give it to them,” said Tim Kuniskis, CEO, Ram brand. “Performance isn’t just about horsepower and torque, it’s about the full sensory experience. With our new MagnaFlow exhaust options, we’re handing drivers the volume knob and letting them crank it to eleven.” ## MagnaFlow SPEQ Series Cat-Back Performance Exhaust System ![Ram 1500 RHO MagnaFlow Exhaust 2]() These 5-inch black chrome exhaust tips are part of both exhaust systems. (Photo by Tim Esterdahl) The first system, exclusively installed on our [long-term 2025 Ram 1500 RHO review truck](), features expertly tuned upgrades from the well-known exhaust manufacturer. It features: - Balanced exhaust note during normal driving; full tone under acceleration - Dual five-inch black chrome tips - Three-inch diameter mandrel-bent tubing - Cat-back design with full stainless-steal construction - MagnaFlow Tru-X crossover pipe, commonly referred to as an X pipe - Dual muffler design - Valve-integrated mid pipes - MagnaFlow No Drone Technology (NDT) mid-pipe chamber - Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects and 1 Year Warranty on Black Finish Exhaust tips, both provided by MagnaFlow. This exclusive exhaust install took place on our [long-distance camping trip to Michigan]() and was a partnership between Ram Trucks and Pickup Truck Plus SUV Talk. You can [watch our video]() showcasing the exhaust, what it looks like in person and, most importantly what it sounds like in different drive modes. Then, compare it with [this video]() with the stock exhaust setup. [Embedded video]() I can confirm, the exhaust system is a great upgrade with no drone and adds a much needed visceral feeling to driving the truck without being overbearing at say 5 am when you are trying to not wake up the neighborhood. Pricing for the exhaust system is $2,089. ## MagnaFlow xMOD Series Cat-Back Performance Exhaust System ![Ram 1500 RHO MagnaFlow Exhaust 3]() The Magnaflow X-pipe is a part of the exhaust system and is located near the transmission behind the engine.

It features: - Six unique exhaust sound combinations, ranging from sporty to pissed-off - Dual 5-inch black chrome tips - Three-inch diameter mandrel-bent tubing - Cat-back design with full stainless-steal construction - MagnaFlow Tru-X crossover pipe, (X pipe) - Race-bred v-band clamps for easy and reliable module connections - Three swappable modules, increasing in sound: STREET, SPEQ, and COMP - Two swappable mid-pipe modules, including standard valve-integrated pipes and - valve delete pipes - MagnaFlow No Drone Technology (NDT) mid-pipe chamber - Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects and 1 Year Warranty on Black Finish Exhaust tips, both provided by MagnaFlow. Pricing for this system is $3,099. ## Why Go with MagnaFlow and Mopar Direct Connect? ![Ram 1500 RHO MagnaFlow Exhaust 4]() The 3″ mandrel-bent piping runs the length of the undercarriage and one side wraps around the spare tire before it is attached to the exhaust tips. (Photo by Tim Esterdahl) There are many aftermarket exhaust companies on the market, so why go with MagnaFlow and Mopar’s Direct Connection? Over the years, I’ve visited with many of the big name aftermarket companies and I’ll be biased here, but whenever you get an aftermarket company working directly with the manufacturer that’s a key benefit others simply can’t provide. Plus, both systems use the same three-inch mandrel-bent stainless-steel construction, MagnaFlow No Drone Technology (NDT) passive noise cancellation, and a dual exit design with those aggressive with five-inch black chrome tips. This should result in better engineered parts with Ram working with MagnaFlow and better availability of replacement parts in case something were to happen to the system. ## Ram and MagnaFlow ![Ram 1500 RHO MagnaFlow Exhaust 6]() This October marks my 15th year covering trucks and SUVs and this truck is my current favorite out of the hundreds, maybe thousands, of trucks I’ve driven and bought during that time.
