Which muffler to buy? Just a muffler. exhaust is stock from the motor(headers,cats)
i have the dual dual exhaust on my hawk with a 3 inch cutout already and the cutout sounds fine and i don't want a new cat-back exhaust kit. When it is capped i want it a little louder than the SLP muffler but quieter than the cutout. basically the monday-friday exhaust sound. So with that in mind, which muffler to buy for the car? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> Flowmaster sounds better on mustangs and LT1's. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Which muffler to buy? Just a muffler. Also, if you want something really cheap you can buy a bullet muffler from Dynomax...only about $35. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Which muffler to buy? Just a muffler. but how loud would that be on my car? i have heard of people doing that instead of the loudmouth. would you put the bullet in the place where the loudmouth resonator is? also i know there are some long and shorter bullet mufflers.

Re: Which muffler to buy? Just a muffler. also, i have gotten an extra cutout plate (thanx to angie at thunder racing) that i am gonna drill a hole in the middle like the borla plates to see if i can tune my cutout and see if it sounds like *** or not.

Re: Which muffler to buy? Just a muffler. I had kinda the same feeling you did. I had a magaflow exhaust, but
it was to quiet for me, so what i did was I got a Spintech exhaust, with
the same idea you had of a plate with a smaller hole on the cutout.
With it capped, its sounds smooth and crisp. With the the plate, it
still sounds crisp, but with more of a growl. It sounds great. Let me
know how it goes......best of luck

Re: Which muffler to buy? Just a muffler. appreciate the info and help! now i gotta go snag a drill with a heck of a bit to drill through that cutout plate and do a little at a time to see how it sounds. (on, off, drill, on, off, drill, etc.)
