The Kooks Headers 35203300 is a high-performance 3-inch stainless steel catted Y-pipe designed to connect Kooks long-tube headers to the factory exhaust system on 2019-2023 Ram 1500 trucks with the 5.7L HEMI engine. This Y-pipe features a 3-inch inlet that transitions to the OEM 3-inch outlet with a 2-bolt flange connection at the rear.
GREEN Catalytic Converter Technology:
This Y-pipe features GREEN catalytic converters, also known as GESI cats, which are high-platinum, high-performance catalytic converters that are EPA compliant. These catalytic converters are engineered to handle the high exhaust gas temperatures of highly modified forced induction vehicles running on pump gas or ethanol fuels. GREEN cats feature 400-count cell construction instead of standard 200-count, providing superior catalyst material for better emissions control and durability.
Key Features:
- Constructed from T304 aircraft-quality stainless steel for exceptional corrosion resistance and durability
- Designed specifically for Crew Cab/Short Bed 144.6-inch wheelbase Ram 1500 models
- EPA-compliant GREEN high-flow catalytic converters for street-legal performance
- 3-inch mandrel-bent tubing for maximum exhaust flow and power gains
- Direct bolt-on installation to OEM 2-bolt flange
- Requires Kooks long-tube headers (sold separately)
Performance Benefits:
Replacing the restrictive factory Y-pipe improves overall exhaust flow, delivering gains in torque, horsepower, and overall performance while enhancing exhaust tone. The high-flow GREEN catalytic converters process exhaust gases more efficiently than factory cats, increasing power in the lower and mid RPM ranges.
