  • drilling holes in stock muffler?

    A friend of mine is coming over here later today so I can take out her air silencer, and do the free whisper lid and ram air mods to her 2001 Firebird today. She wants her car to be louder, and I know the air silencer gives it a deeper tone, but what would it sound like if you drilled a hole in the muffler? I've heard of people doing this before, but I have no clue what it would sound like. Let me know your opinions... ASAP please cuz she should be here soon ;)

    Since the stock muffler is not chambered, it'd probably sound like crap... IMHO. [img]graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

    Not to mention the fact it will rust out MUCH sooner. :(

      Kew, that's what I figured, someone just suggested that earlier though so I thought I'd ask.

          If she has W68 or Y87 (the dual out muffler), you could do that wanna be Borla muffler mod.

          I can't remember where the instructions for this are. Looked at installuniversity, and it's not there...
