    That is right guys two different dealers told me $5,000.00 for a muffler. I have a 2007 freightliner columbia with a C15 acert. I have dual mufflers that is over $10k in just mufflers, that is crazyyyy. Does this sound right? I thought I had 2006 engine in it.

    Are you talking dpfs or what ? If not I'd check into after market or strait pipes. Or even go to single stock exhaust ......

    Are you sure? Theres no way. But the good news is thats not true. They can be had for way, way, way cheaper.

    Those mufflers will have catalytic converters built into them.

    Just buy the quiet performance mufflers from Pittsburgh power (or Donaldson equivalent) there like 150 a piece and may give you up to 50 more HP.

    Why do you need CC on a truck....I though CC was only needed on gas burning vehicles. If its before 07 all you need (to my knowledge) is a muffler...and some guys run strait pipes.
