Does muffler location make a difference?
Does anyone know if putting the muffler under the center of the car vs. putting it at the back will make any resonance noise/vibration difference? My setup right now is the magnamouth which I like, and I dont want to change the sound, but with my cam there are a lot of vibration and rattles in the car. I was wondering if they would be less if the muffler was located in the back.

Placement of the muffler is probably not going to make a whole lot of difference in that situation. It would make more of a difference running/adding cats and/or running a full size muffler than it would muffler location.

i had different exhaust done to my car and it won't matter where you put your exhaust its all going threw that same tube and out the back, it may sound different because it can resonate where you put the muffler but you won't be able to tell in the car.
