I don't see why not. Both the aftermarket exhausts in my M3 and R8 were clamped together.

Where are you at? I am sure you can find someone who could weld it up for you?

I see nothing wrong with clamping, I just like welding lol

Band clamps are your friend. Worth every penny on slip fit joints.

Tighten that shit down a ton so the band stretches a bit to seal all leaks.

On some slip fit joints I might wrap some aluminum foil around it first so that it seals perfectly.

Are you going budget or fancy? If budget maybe a piece of exhaust pipe and 4 of these:

You'll end up with leaks slotting the pipe. Better to get something pre-belled which a lot of places sell. Another option would be to do something like a race bullet as well as a shorter section of pre-flared pipe which would plausibly help keep the drone down. . A lot of places sell pre-flared exhaust pipe. Either that or go to a muffler place and have em do it for you for probably not that much more.

Clamps will work fine like stated above. I am not too sure how those hellcats are set up, but cutting out the mufflers might make it extremely loud.

My question would be does it have mufflers and resonators? Possibly tolerable if it has huge ass resonators.

That definitely give it some grunt. It is a bit too raspy for my liking though. What about cutting the mufflers out and clamping in some bullet mufflers in its place? Everyone likes their own type of exhaust note though. If you like the way the muffler delete sounds...I say go for it

@daturbosix

i dont think it will clamp down properly. ive tried this before and it kinda crushes where the clamp comes together and creates a leak.
