Here are the Vibrants I run.

They also make these in an aluminum version with more "muffle" to it that is 14" long.
http://vibrantperformance.com/catalo...oducts_id=1704

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 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
As already mentioned, The QTP's, Dynatecks, Magnaflow, Flowmaster will accomplish what you're looking for.

The little bullets being mentioned are only called mufflers.

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.

What do you guys run for your race car on the street? I want to put a muffler at the end of each of my open header extensions for street use.

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.

The Vibrant 3"x5" "mufflers".

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.

I think, I'm leaning more to these mufflers.
Where do I get them at?
How long are they and a ball park price.
Thanks

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.

You've been mislead by someone.
