The active exhaust is plenty loud enough for me lol. It's definitely not as quiet as my camry. Also I live in a circular street, so it echoes off everyone's house amplifying that v8.😂 I think the factory exhaust is the right loud. It's a healthy loud. Especially when you step on it. When it's in sport mode and you're just cruising, it purrs and rumbles loud enough for you and everyone around you to hear it. I know a lot of guys want a louder exhaust than factory. To each his own. Your RT sounds & looks amazing! Don't ever sell it!
For people watching this and dont want their CEL to come on, you have to pull the active exhaust fuse (#34 i think? Its a 15 fuse) before you remove the controller. If you get a CEL, just pull the negative from your battery for an hour or so, so it cal reset.
😊I deleted my resonators on my 2020 challenger R/T. 5.7 it sounds great now I want to do the Active thing I still have my factory mufflers. Thanks for the information 👍
I use Z Automative exhaust delete..got rid of resonators n put cat back..no check engine light..xhaust sounds awesome with d magnaflows..n louder n sportmode
Not really the active exhaust is to make the cars exhaust more quite at stop lights as to not be to loud for the ones who don't like loud exhaust .. it's not like electric cutouts which direct the exhaust straight to atmosphere... With active exhaust the exhaust still come out at the exhaust tip
There's a jack stand point welded in that spot where he had it. That's where you're supposed to jack up the car too. You can't jack it there if you're going to put stands though. I use a low profile jack and lift on frame then put stands.
@@franciscoarroyo3192 it’s basically in the video …it’s just 4 steps pretty much 1 remove active exhaust black box 2 take the spring off 3 twist the wires tightly onto the valve in the open position 4 put the black box back on
Basically you just need to leave the engine to the catalytics alone if you want to keep your warranty, so things you can change are the exhaust starting from the end of the catalytic to the tail pipe (ex add/changing your cat back exhaust system) and the air intake (ex adding a cold air intake). So no this won't void it if you properly do it and don't end up locking it closed cause then that would be considered customer abuse and would void your warranty(so if you do it triple check your work). Honestly just save your money until you pay off you car then start modding it out
No and remember this if you were to delete your muffler and the warranty folks found out all they could do is void from there to exhaust tip .. they can't void your warranty .. the can just choose not to fix the item you modified and beyond .. and if dodge sells it as option for your car then they couldn't void your warranty anyways ... That's what my lawyer told me
Cold air intake will do nothing for your performance. But it looks cool and you can hear the air being sucked in lil better but because it's all computer controlled it will only take the amount of air the injectors can handle ... But performance will not change
I can speak to this as I've entirely deleted the AES from my R/T as well. The sport mode button does more than just open the valves. The primary function of the sport-mode button is to change the shift behavior / timing. It makes you stay in lower gears for longer.

6:40 now I understand why is to loud start engine and gets slow sound after half minute ! Bro thanks alot ❤
That’s dope. Nice vid.
I replaced the mufflers with 2 super 10 flowmasters, resonator delete with the Z automotive exhaust delete. It now sounds like a true muscle car!
The check engine only comes on from 2018 and older. If you have 2019 you won’t get a check engine light

Bro did u take the springs out?
Can’t wait to remove active exhaust
You never let the car long enough when taking this video. The computer needs at least 20 minutes before it codes
@toodopehemi just curious what year is your challenger
2022
That explains no CEL. 2015-2017 will get you a CEL. No fuse removal will help.
whered you get that little xpipe?
Just found it lol
And did u get a check engine light on?
only turn on the code from 2017 backwards
Wont the actuator motor rub aganist the wire?
No , it won’t
I straight piped mine sounds way more loud
Why are you messing with the active exhaust? It's like having electric cut outs
Not really the active exhaust is to make the cars exhaust more quite at stop lights as to not be to loud for the ones who don't like loud exhaust .. it's not like electric cutouts which direct the exhaust straight to atmosphere... With active exhaust the exhaust still come out at the exhaust tip
Hey bro. You can help me. My challenger 2019 I delet but the check engine is on
It shouldn’t be on , if not have someone look at it with a reader
Mine too
Car is on a decline with no blocks on the front wheels!!!! Parking brake is in the rear wheels omg.
i dont have my challenger yet, but most of the time you dont put the jacks on the rocker panel. my other car is rusting out cause someone did that
There's a jack stand point welded in that spot where he had it. That's where you're supposed to jack up the car too. You can't jack it there if you're going to put stands though. I use a low profile jack and lift on frame then put stands.
Where you get the wire from?
Home Depot / lows
What gauge wire was it
Did u get a check engine?
Yes you will
2019 and newer won't throw a code.and it won't sound like that if your car has mufflers. They don't tell u that.
What happens with the code? Is there a problem if I leave it?
Cause i did it on my 2019 charger rt and the check engline light came on
I showed it at the end of the vid , no light came on …did you do it right ? And when did u do it ?
how did you do it i want to do it to mine and i dont want to make a mistake
@@toodope5ohh what year is your rt
@@franciscoarroyo3192 it’s a 2022 , any year should work the same tho , even scats
@@franciscoarroyo3192 it’s basically in the video …it’s just 4 steps pretty much
1 remove active exhaust black box
2 take the spring off
3 twist the wires tightly onto the valve in the open position
4 put the black box back on
Does that void the warranty on the car.

u can keep ur warranty even after taking cats off bro @@FORSAKENTOX1N
So what happens now to the “sport mode” button? Should I still use it?
I can speak to this as I've entirely deleted the AES from my R/T as well. The sport mode button does more than just open the valves. The primary function of the sport-mode button is to change the shift behavior / timing. It makes you stay in lower gears for longer.
Sport mode quickens throttle response, firms up shifts, holds gears longer. Much more than just opening the exhaust.
You should always be in sport. No reason at all not to be. Drive vs sport doesn't even get better gas mileage
The button is still productive for more power
@@joefrazier3086it definitely gets better mileage, it allows 4cyl mode as well as keeping the rpm’s lower. Higher rpm’s more fuel sprayed
Just drive it in sport mode ? This is pointless ….
Won't that give you like 5 mpgs :(
sport mode still uses active exhaust at low rpms and low throttle
you gotta change your name now bro toodopeRT
