Default bullet mufflers opionions !

Looking for some decently cheap bullets to quite the car down. Plan is to clamp them on the headers or come off the headers with a little pipe and put them on. i have looked at the 23" long dynomax bullets and the moroso sprial flow. What do you guys reccomend for quieting it down and keeping good power still ?

dynomax bullets are the wrong muffler to buy to quiet a car down. Some magnaflows would do a better job

Any bullet muffler on the collector is going to be minimal sound reduction, but it'll do a bit. Make sure to rig up hangers so you don't have all that weight cantilevered on the heads (especially on bumpy roads).

I don't think the length of bullets on the collector is going to matter at all. You'll have to BFH anyway, so get the ones that'll fit the best with the least hammering.

would it be more quite to put the bullets on the headers or just run straight pipe duals with turndows at the tranny mount ?

Straight pipes sound like absolute ****, so even if bullets on the collectors are louder, they're the better option.

Why not just run a normal set of x-pipe duals?

Powersticks FTW!
Best system I've ran is my current . H-Pipe 2 Medium Powersticks/HFC's/out the back.
Sweet Thunders might be another avenue for you to go down. Their better than the typical bullet muffler imo. Straight pipes are awful imo.. your poor motor will wanna be begging for some back-pressure.
