Kooks 3" GREEN Catted Connection Pipes for 2005 and 2023 Chrysler 300C / Dodge Charger / Challenger / Magnum 6.1L & 6.4L HEMI RWD
The Kooks 31023200 3-inch GREEN catted connection pipes complete the exhaust upgrade on 2005 and 2023 Chrysler 300C, Dodge Charger, Challenger, and Magnum models with the 6.1L or 6.4L HEMI V8, linking Kooks long tube headers directly to the factory mid-pipe for seamless integration that maintains 49-state emissions compliance while adding 20 and 30 rear-wheel horsepower and 25 and 35 lb-ft of torque through high-flow 300-cell metallic substrate GREEN catalytic converters and mandrel-bent tubing.
Handcrafted from T304 aircraft-quality stainless steel with 3/8-inch laser-cut flanges and full TIG welds, these pipes ensure zero leaks under extreme heat and support over 850 HP from tunes or cams without sacrificing ground clearance or daily drivability. The direct bolt-on design preserves the classic muscle car soundtrack with a deeper, more aggressive tone at wide-open throttle and zero drone at cruise.
For LX/LC/LD platform owners pairing Kooks headers with stock exhaust, the 31023200 GREEN catted connection pipes are the essential emissions-legal link that maximizes 6.1L and 6.4L HEMI performance with proven reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: Does this work with factory headers?
A: No, designed specifically for Kooks long tube headers -
Q: Is it emissions legal?
A: Yes, 49-state EPA compliant with GREEN cats -
Q: Does it fit AWD models?
A: No, RWD only due to driveline clearance -
Do Kooks headers require a tune after installation?
Yes. A professional tune is strongly recommended after installing long tube headers. The significant improvement in exhaust flow changes air fuel ratios and requires ECM recalibration to achieve optimal power output and safe operation. -
Will these headers void my factory powertrain warranty?
Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer cannot void your vehicle warranty simply because you installed an aftermarket part unless they prove the component directly caused the failure. Consult your dealer for specifics on your situation. -

Connecting Pipes
Exhaust and intake connecting pipes bridge the gap between major system components, including the downpipe-to-mid-pipe junction, turbocharger outlet to intercooler, and intercooler to throttle body in forced induction systems. Quality connecting pipes in mandrel-bent aluminized steel or stainless steel maintain full internal diameter through every bend to preserve airflow and reduce backpressure.Popular UpgradesDownpipe-to-cat-back connecting pipes in 3-inch diameter aluminized or stainless steel are the most common exhaust connecting pipes, bridging between an upgraded downpipe and a cat-back system that may not align natively. Intercooler pipes in silicone-connected aluminum or stainless steel tubing are essential for routing boost pressure efficiently in turbocharged builds. Custom-length connecting pipes with slip-fit or v-band ends allow precise fitment in tight engine bays.What material is best for exhaust connecting pipes?Stainless steel connecting pipes offer the best long-t...
