    Has anyone heard of this MotoBlue exhaust that RPM Outlet is selling? I'm looking for a good product that isn't too loud. I got an 03 Dodge with standard cummins. I got the truck for pulling a camper. I will be making long trips and don't want a lot of noise from the exhaust. I've been on the MBRP web site and listened to their exhaust, however that was from outside the truck. It sounded pretty good though. I would probably go with the MBRP but if I can get another product that is just as good for cheaper I would do that. Anyone that can help I would appreciate it. Thanks.

    The motoblue exhaust is cheap, but look at what your getting for the price, They offer a stainless kit, but the cheapies are all aluminized steel.

    Stick with the MBRP. I have many happy customers out there pulling with MBRP under their trucks and they have nothing bad to say.

    I have Moto-Blue 5" on my 05' 2500 in the 2000 + rpm range it gets a little loud but not bad going down the hiway untill I'm over 70mph+ then I get a little drone to it. The system was easy to put on went with the turbo back offroad system (in Washington state no smog rules) took maybe 2 hours by myself to install, looks good, easy to install, sounds good, no problems yet.:D

    do you think you lost any low end power with the 5" moto blue sytem...i was going to go with that sytem but i decided to just modify the the stock 4" factory with the areo turbine and mbrp cat delete....so far seems good but man it can it get loud, but i bet your 5" exhaust has got some more noise to it then the 4". u get so many different stories and opinions from diesel tuners, so i decided to just spend the extra $$ and just find out hands on....so when i get tired of my 4" exhaust i will probally invest in the moto blue......

    No it does not seem to have lost any low end power but the turbo seems to spool up a little slower, takes maybe 1-2 sec. but my egt's are much lower, pulling 4 ton hay on 30' gooseneck I only run about 550* - 650* depending on hills.
