Why do you need pics? Just look at a rear shot of an SRT-4. :? That's what it would look like. It will all just bolt on, aside from paint.

its only loud if you just use the catback...
install a resonator or glasspack on the midpipe and you will be fine. The SRT resonators are garbage, I picked up a NAPA resonator for a GM product for around $30 and it was quieter than the dual SRT resonators...

the rear bumper with R/T exhaust holes are different. The R/T muffler would need to be extended approximately 1.5 - 2 inches on each side of the pipes.

Optionally you can do the rolled bumper mod

the pics are broken but i have the thread saved on my work pc. If you want them i can upload them. All you need are some good zip ties.

FREE mods are always good.....
Im also considering doing it to my R/T. It might even help with aerodynamics :wink:
