Race Mufflers
^^^^This^^^^ Not pricey and they sound good (I think so) I have a video somewhere... I'll dig it up if you want.
Here are the Vibrants I run.

They also make these in an aluminum version with more "muffle" to it that is 14" long.

Very high quality.
They do make a 9" long version of the ones I run(5"). The longer it is the more bite it will take out of the exhaust.
These are what most of the heads up radial guys run when they have to meet a class requirement for mufflers.
I do like the way those flowmaster outlaw bullets sound though, mine aren't dumped but they do extend off the collectors a good 10" and I am having dumps welded on the ends of the 3x5's I have now and then kicking the dumps out at a 45* angle so some of the sound exits out the sides of the car and at the ground at the same time.

I need some race mufflers.
Race only car. I don't like open headers, too loud for me.
I know it adds weight but.
Headers have 3.5" collectors. I had the Dynomax Bullets before and didn't like them. I had a Borla XR-1 on a ORY and like that sound. But I don't want to spend $350.00 on the XR-1's.
I'll have about 8" of straight pipe off the collectors and then the mufflers and turndowns.
Thanks

The little bullets being mentioned are only called mufflers.
I want to quiten the car down some. Smooth out the sound.
Yes they won't quieten it down as far as decibels go, but they will take the rasp/bite of open headers out of the exhaust sound.
Longer they are the more bite is taken out, not sound volume. I guess "tone it down" is what I am looking for to describe what they will do.
Yes a bullet or 1 chamber would do you better.
I like the way those Flowmaster Outlaw bullets sounded on BESstrokednova's car. I also really like the way Magnaflow bullets sound buy they are just as expensive as the vibrant mufflers that are actually mufflers as they doe make a real muffler that is still considerably lighter than anything else on the market. I posted the link underneath the ones I have.

I just got mine running and have flowmaster 1-chambers off the headers. It is loud. Sounds ok I guess. I may look for something a little quieter but I don't want to add weight. Will try to get a sound clip up soon.

I am planning on some bullets and if I can find a good deal on those flowmaster outlaw bullets they are probably what I am going to go with.
It's been almost a year now, what's the hot new muffler out there.
I still like the Borla XR-1. Just too damn expensive. AR3 want be ready until mid August.
What's the next best muffler? No bullets.
