Default Who is running a bumper exit with a bullet muffler?

I want to run a bumper exit exhaust on the Mustang, not overly concerned with noise. I have seen people run a bullet muffler on the down pipe right before the exit. Does this significantly help? Anyone have before and after experience/insight? Videos?

Spanks!

Last year I ran two small bullet mufflers on mine before it exits just below the front fender. This year I am going to step up to the longer 12" bullets and exit in the same spot.

www.facebook.com/skinniesTTfox has a video of my car for ya to get an idea how loud it is.

I put two 12 inch bullets on mine and it is extremely quite with the windows up. Neighbors don't care much neither, harleys with mufflers are louder.


I know it is pretty loud here but with the windows down you can hear the radio and have a convo without yelling while cruising.

I ran mine with a single 14" long 4" straight through magnaflow muffler and it is still pretty darn loud right now with my car. Hoping carpet and such will muffle it some more.

I have 24 inchs of muffler haha, my goal was to be quiet as possible. First one starts in front of the balancer and 2nd makes it all the way out the bumper. The tip that hangs out is the end of the muffler.

This is mine idling with no muffler but keep in mind that was inside of my garage.


I should have some track video on Monday to give a better idea.
