I need a muffler that is quiet and flows good ???

MESS · 10-08-2009, 01:43 PM

I have a H/C car with a Magnaflow catback without cats and it's too loud for me. I need a muffler that is quieter but flows well. Any advice? I'll be keeping my cutout. And I tried a search with no success.

You could try putting a couple of small magnaflow bullet mufflers in the Y-pipe, or put one right after the Y-pipe.

you could try hooker aerochamber, they are pretty quiet as well

man, its crazy how magnaflow is loud to some people. im cammed with longtubes and ory, and its still quiet for me. magnaflow and hooker are one of the more quieter catbacks.

It sounded great with a stock motor with long tubes and ory. But once the H/C was done, holy shit, my 2yo boy says, too loud daddy

Magnaflow race series muffler

Try adding another muffler in the intermediate pipe as mentioned. Also, maybe you could consider adding high flow cats.

I have a magnaflow bullet running off of my y pipe and it is quiet and sounds good as well.

z28camaross2 · 10-08-2009, 03:20 PM

i think the loudness is to the tone of the exhaust as well , just how some people think some people think certain catbacks sound awesome and others think they sound like shit, someone with a magnaflow could like the way a slightly louder exhaust sounds with a dif tone, i think thats why i dont like my magnaflow that much, cruising i dont really like the tone, but at WOT its to die for

, so hopefully lontubes will help me out with the tone i want, but if not im gonna say screw it and save up for a GMMG

damn, I have a magnaflow with a H/C/I 408 with longtubes and ory. still is too quiet for me. but thats what the cutout is for

hitmanws6 · 10-08-2009, 03:48 PM

get a hooker aerochamber muffler, a flowmaster merge for the y pipe and a powerstick for the i pipe

01ssreda4 · 10-08-2009, 04:01 PM

SLP dual/dual

MESS · 10-08-2009, 04:26 PM

I was trying to find an exact replacement for the magnaflow muffler, but nothing is that EZ

I'm thinking about going back to a stock set up with a cutout (stock set up being just the cat back)

01ssreda4 · 10-08-2009, 05:24 PM

I have a stock muffler with tips, mint condition, you can have for free if you need it. Im about 2 1/2 hour drive from you.

shaun · 10-08-2009, 05:42 PM

i sugest puting a bullet muffler in the i pipe.
i have lt's tsp ory and a single in single out oval magnaflow muffler with a hidden tip and i was geting an exhaust leak sound that i couldent fix and all my exhaust is welded so there is no leaks.
so i had an slp lm2 muffler laying around so i had it welded to my i pipe right after the y mearge and it fixed the problem.

it toned it down a little and helped the sound.

slayer_taunu · 10-09-2009, 01:45 AM

i have the SLP power-flow (aka dual/dual). even with LT's/ORY, its pretty quiet.

Thats about the quitest of them all but does flow very well,just make sure the disc of silence is removed from the drivers side tail pipe.

I'm in the same boat as you.. Coming from my old car (ms4 Xpipe dumped before axle w/ 1 chambers).. When I want it quiet I want to close the cutout and be QUIET! Not sound like a stock car with a cutout.

I have been told even on H/C cars this is the way to go if you want quiet.. I think if I try a different muffler this is what I will be doing.

Don't do that.. Sounds like garbage IMO..

Will a bullet or something similar really quiet it down that much? How much will it effect the tone, I don't want any more rasp than it already has.

EDIT::: I don't want to spend a lot of money on this.. Someone posted something SLP for like 200$, I'm not spending that much.. Will the little 35$ used bullets work?

lemons look at TORCHD02TA's setup, should give you some good ideas
