Default muffler options

Can someone recommend me a decent bullet-style muffler? I'm in need of a secondary muffler, because the car is still too loud.

I called up ws6store.com and they told me that this muffler: http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...oducts_id=1141 would not do much to make my car quieter.

Put a Magnaflow #14419 in the I-pipe, and/or 1 (#10416 2.5" in/out) in each after muffler tail pipe.

How far down do you think this will take the noise level??

It won't radically reduce the loudness but it'll be noticeable.

in addition to reducing noise level, i'm trying to get it to be a little less raspy.

anyone else have experience with that muffler?

Borla XR1 #40085 in place of the resonator, a little quieter but much better tone.

If you want a 5" diameter muffler like Borla #40085, Magnaflow has the #12867 for about $25 less than the Borla, but a 4" diameter muffler will fit in the I-pipe location better.

The Borla XR1s have a awesome tone, if it were me, I would put it on.

SLP Loudmouth 1 or 2. The one is most likley not what you want, it is hollow. The 2 has packing inside so it will do what you want.
