  • Looking for performance

    I want to replace my factory muffler for a better one. I am not interested in something very noisy (like those hondas that make more noise than performance). I prefer the deep sound of a Z28. The advertising of the Hookers Aerochamber mufflers says they have what I am looking for. Also they say having a 30 percent more performance that most leading brands. I need your opinion guys, Is that true?, or What's the muflers that delivers more hp?

    you'd be better off just getting a full exhaust system. Most of the power and noise comes from the intermediate pipe that leads from your cat to the muffler/resonator and then to the back of the car. It would prolly sound pretty ****ty if all you bought was a muffler and welded it up to the stock I-pipe. If you dont wanna spend all the extra money and buy a full exhaust off the net, just go to meinike and they'll custom make your exhaust with whatever muffler you want for around $300.

        You aren't going to get a z28 sound unless you swap in a 346cid. I wouldn't bother with just a muffler, get a catback or don't do it at all. One of the quietest exhaust's is probaly the dynomax superturbo.

          If your looking for performance but not to loud try the borla pro xs 40474 I had a local shop mandrel bend me 3" from the cat back to the muffler and then dual 2 1/2 tips I got the muffler on ebay for 109 and a local shop to do the rest for 175 it is not real lound but sounds really great I actually have turned down the radio for the last 2 weeks just so I can listen to the sound of the exhaust the muffler has no back pressure for sure when it came in the mail I was worred that it would be too loud because you could look right throught to the other side but I have driven past several police officers and not one has even looked over at it think about it you wont be dissapointed!
