  • Help me pick the muffler

    Ok guys, need to complete my exhaust setup. I have a cutout before my cat so there is no need for it to be loud. All I want is deep, smooth and pleasant, preferably single 3" in dual 2.5" out. Any suggestions? My first guess is dynomax super turbo

      Super Turbo or a takeoff, I agree with you guys. My Ultraflo is louder than you want.

        Loud doesn't bother me I just don't want it to open up and rasp. If I want real loud I just run open headers lol. Just getting sick of no muffler and tones of noise/rasp all the time. Also I didn't think takeoff was 3"...

          Dynomax Super Turbo. I just have a 2.5" inlet dual 2.5" outlets super turbo on my stock I-pipe. I should be installing my new I-pipe sometime next week. The Super Turbo sounds really good. It is kind of queit right now though. There are also some people on this board who have the Edelbrock RPM series muffler and love it. The Edelbrock is louder than the Super Turbo though.

              I utterly despised my flowmaster muffler I had. I will NEVER buy one of those mufflers again lol.

                I don't blame you on that. Mine is comming off soon too. The LS1 Dynomax kit might be good for you.

                  its not 3" but that doesnt matter. it can still be welded on there. im welding my 3" onto my 2 1/2 muffler right now ;) . i just cant wait to get my spark plug wires so i can start it up and drive it w/ my new exhaust system

                    It does matter to me lol. If I pay for the rest of the system to be 3" mandrel bent piping, 3" ypipe, 3" cat, why would I finish with a 2 1/2in muffler?

                      it wouldnt really wouldnt make a difference if its 2 1/2. the only thing im saying is that you can have a higher flowing muffler than our stock but a more quiet smooth noise. you can still throw a 3" pipe on it and 3" tail pipes w/ tips

                        kinda missing the point of the 3" piping lol. Just because a muffler flows better then stock doesn't make it worth anything. If it flows too much less then the piping leading to it the muffler becomes a horrible drag on the exhaust system. Although the take off muffler would meet the sound requirements I have it wouldn't compliment my current exhaust at all and would in fact hamper it and make me feel like I wasted alot of money on my exhaust lol.
