Default Xcelerator Muffler?
Has anyone here heard of or actually heard a car (LS1 perferably) with a Xcelerator muffler on it. LS1Sounds has nothing. A guy I met has one cheap and I was gonna pic it up till I do LTs and true duals. Any input would be great.

I know this is old, but I talked to an exhaust shop that sells Xlerator mufflers and Flowmaster Mufflers yesterday. he said the Xlerator VX mufflers sound exactly like the Flowmasters, no difference.

The old orginal Flowmaster 40 and the VX muffler are pretty much the same thing fuctionaly.The Xlerator is a different story, I dont know if it is a knock off of any Flowmaster.

Xlerator is a straight through muffler no way does it sound like a flowmaster but i love the sound. I think they are closer to Borla XR-1 with volume maybe a bit less depending on case size.

The stainless steel Xlerator is pretty much the same in size , and probably inside also, to Borla XS Pro .
