What mufflers?

[FatNasty]

2.5" dual exhaust will be going on soon, cattless h-pipe. Got the BBK shorty headers and these tips.

Don't know what mufflers to go with yet. I want a nice low V8 noise, but not any ridiculous amount of volume. I like the noise level of the mark vii or a little louder, but i'm not sure if its stock. I also dont want a bunch of drone inside. Most people have told me flowmaster 40's, and i have heard there is a certain length that will reduce droan. Just want to get a few more opinions and suggestions. thanks

i know a few people that use the 40s on their small block fox bodies and said they arnt a bad muffler, i preffer magnaflos i thought they had the nicest note next to mac exhaust. i have a set of mags that i will be putting on the wagon once it warms up a bit.

Warlocs sound good on a 5.0.

I have Flowmaster 40 series mufflers on my car (w/ 2.5" cat back). Before I installed extra sound deadening they resonated alot inside the car. The sound deadening made a huge difference, but there is still some resonance. Every once in a while I here a buzzing sound; its the geadliner vibrating due to resonance.

If you'd like your car to be loud outside (which mine is kind of loud; or so I've been told), and quiet inside, some decent sound deadening is really a good idea. It really diminishes road noise as well, which is also really nice.

get flowmaster 50's they sound like the 40's but are quieter, if you want really quiet get the delta 50's

Since you won't have cats, turbo mufflers are nice. They're quiet at idle but there's a nice rumble when you hit the gas. Summit Turbo's a real cheap. I'm curious as to what Summit Chambered mufflers sound like. Those are the cheapest chambered mufflers (new) that i've found so I want to know if they're good for the money. Anyone here have those on their car?

I second turbo mufflers. Most chambered or straight through will be insanely loud without cats...And flowmasters resonate, no way around that.

Walker Dynomax Super Hemi Turbo mufflers, these are the long-case version of the regular Dynomax mufflers.

Problem Solved.

- Magnaflows

- Dynomax Super Turbos

- Flowtech Afterburners

The Afterburners are a mild chambered muffler, have a nice raspy growl to them, but NO interior resonance.

flowmasters resonate alot and are pretty loud.

walker soundFX's are factory style mufflers that arent too obnoxious, yet not too quiet. I have no experience with anything else.

Hooker Aero Chamber!

Straight thru design but not insanely loud.

I had the afterburners and they do resonate and drone.

X1. Ask me how I know. I also like packed mufflers, such as Magnaflow, Dynomax Race Magnum/Ultra Flow.

summit turbos are nice and quiet thain has them on the galactica
i have thrush turbos on the vic gt sedan and it has a nice sound not too loud
i have dynomax super turbos on the towny.....the sound is quite pleasing
superlincoln has and toms vic will have the summit polished stainless turbo mufflers....these sound nice although david thinks it is too loud and complains of some pahntom resonation

[gadget73]

my cheapo summit turbos are real quiet. Nearly no drone either. At certain speeds, it drones mildly but its nothing unreasonable and its for like a 5 mph speed range. Basically overdrive under 2000 rpm. I drove it from NJ to Chicago, no complaints out of me. Its actually quiet to the point of barely being able to hear it. I wailed on it a few times in tunnels, and its not loud at all. It would be a fair bit louder without cats.
