Title: Walker Quiet Flow muffler?
Post by: colin86325 on February 02, 2012, 06:18:14 PM

Anybody have any experience with the Quiet Flow 3 line of mufflers from Walker?  I know most people go with the Dynomax Super Turbo, but I need something that's much quieter.  
I was looking at the 22380, which is 2.25" offset inlet/outlet with a 21 X 4.25 X 9.75" case.  Will this fit?

(I did find it on special elsewhere for $52 shipped)

Mine's got a big rusty hole in it...I'm interested in figuring this out too...

Thanks Dave, I did some reading and it looks like those dimensions will work for the E30.  I'm going to order this thing from autoshepherd.com. There's a coupon for 15% off good until 2/13. The code is WALKER15 if you are interested.

The muffler arrived and I'm pleased that the case is stainless steel, not aluminized as reported on the Summit site.

It will probably be a couple weeks before I get a chance to have it installed.

Boy, autoshepard is a hard site to navigate. What did you order from there? did you use a different make auto or something? :confused:

You're right!  I just tried to navigate their site to find the muffler.  Originally I used Google and came across it by happenstance.

The 15% off coupon has expired but you might come across a valid coupon with a google search.


The muffler is actually for a Cadillac and some other large sedans.  I might be able to have it installed next weekend.

Got it installed and true to its name, it's pretty quiet!  Sounds very much like a stock muffler.  I'll try to get a video up some time.
