What's the best muffler to add to a I pipe?
I have AR LT headers, catted Y, and a GMMG catback. It sounds awesome, but I think I might like to tone it down slightly without losing much HP. I'd like to stay with stainless. I was thinking of maybe getting another chambered muffler for the I. Any suggestions? Thanks

Thanks for the replies guys. I'm leaning toward one of the shorter 3" diameter Magnaflow bullets from Summit. After reading the info on the Magnaflow site, I don't think I want to put another chambered muffler in the I that could cause more turbulence. I'll keep ya posted.

Okay, so Summit has 20" long bullets in 4,5, and 6" diameters. I'm going to jack up the car and see how big of a diameter will fit. I'm assuming a larger diameter is going to be quieter.? How about flow? Any suggestions on where I should I have it mounted- toward the engine or toward the catback? Thx

Well, I got my Magnaflow bullet today & it looks great. I've been having second thoughts though. I like the way it sounds now, it's just slightly on the loud side. Adding the bullet isn't going to quiet it down too much is it??

absolutely not!!! trust me on this one as i trusted you on the ARH product. i mean, look at the core, it's wide open...all it did for mine was refine it and deepen it. it's still loud as @$*%!!!!!
