Complete the System: Precision Fit Connection Pipes for Full Power Delivery
The Kooks 3-inch GREEN catted OEM connection pipes complete the exhaust upgrade on all 2006 and 2023 LX/LC/LD platform vehicles with 6.1L SRT8, 6.4L 392/Scat Pack, and 6.2L Hellcat engines, 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 1,000 HP from tunes or superchargers without sacrificing ground clearance or daily drivability. The direct bolt-on design retains factory Active Exhaust valve function (where equipped) and OEM tips for a clean appearance.
For 300C, Charger, Challenger, and Magnum owners pairing Kooks headers with stock mufflers/tips, the 31013300 GREEN catted connection pipes are the essential emissions-legal link that maximizes performance with factory refinement.

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: Retains Active Exhaust?
A: Yes, full valve function preserved -
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. -
