Considering and exhaust upgrade
« on: March 18, 2009, 12:59:00 PM »
anyone have any suggestions for a good muffler? i was running a cheap $16 cherrybomb (autozone special) on my old saturn it sounded great and actually gave me a small hp gain... i want something with more flow and a better sound

go to any exhaust shop and have them make you one. here in phoenix i found someone who will do turbo back 2 1/2in with magnaflow muffler and it was $250 out the door. $275 to add flanges for swapping out the cat for emissions

Yeah, i'm just gonna run 2 1/2 with a custom dump pipe, and haven't settled on a muffler yet.

Where in PA are you from?
