Title: muffler?
Post by: ///digitalme on March 22, 2010, 07:39:40 PM
i was wondering if anyone know of a good exhaust i had a magnaflow exhaust before....but it was too loud for my taste i put a cheap 60 dollar exhaust and it sounds like awful, as if its constricting air or something...
heres how the magnaflow sounded...im looking for one that isnt as loud

It seems like if you want quiet you just have to go stock exhaust.  My setup is better than a fart can but still pretty loud at high rpms.  basically its headers --> magnaflow cat --> resonator --> dynomax super turbo.   All at 2.25" piping.  Not bad sounding (no rasp like a fart can) but still a bit loud.

the maganaflow came with the car when i bought it and never was a fan of it...i would get too much attention it was too loud on low rpms....ive been searching for a stock exhaust but usally when i go to the yunkyard m42s have cheap exhaust or its rusted....
i think the stock would be the best for me...my car has headers would that make the stock exhaust sound louder?
