This statement was (from memory) from the August 2008 issue of Mopar Action.
So the 6 speed should sound pretty good straight from the factory.
Mine should be in soon (it's in JS status now). I'll let you guys know how it sounds.

I bought two bullet style mufflers, 18" length / 2 1/4 ID-OD. Should be delivered tomorrow and install some time Thursday or Friday, hopefully. We will see how it sounds, if its crap, then Zoomers or Corsa for me.

Already checked out the bluetooth. My RES code radio is uconnect compatible but you have to buy the module/mic kit....... $399. Maybe down the road. I've checked ebay and they have the kits (new) for about half the price but none for the Challenger app. yet.

As far as the exhaust....... need to do something! Too quiet. Guess I'll see what I can do with the existing exhaust, if that doesn't work may look at Corsa or Zoomers. Anyone know on the RT what the HUGE chunk of metal the size of a suitcase is about middle of the exhaust? Is it the muffler and the cans at the end the resonators or vise versa?

I have heard it called the "suitcase muffler" so assuming its the muffler.

The suitcase (in middle) is the muffler
The cans at the back are the resonators.

No it is not, you have to choose the uconnect option. I have it and it is very useful mainly for inbound calls...no fumbling for my cell. Has an address book also you can use VRS to call hands free.

Damn, that sounds nice. I was hoping to get one with no options but I dunno if I can resist that one.
