Default Good turbo mufflers?

I just got done putting 3 inch exhaust on my turbo del sol. It's full 3 inch with a 30" resonator...basically it's the loudest thing I've ever experienced. So, does anyone know of any 3 inch (inner diameter) mufflers that can REALLY do it's job? prefferably one with a removabe silencer. I need this thing to get alot quieter or I'll be getting weekly tickets. thanks.

Or you could spend well under 200 and get a 3" dynomax or magnaflow that will actually quiet it down quite a bit compared to an N1 or any other srtaight through 'race' muffler.

Yeah right, genius. Throw your money away. Not everything is worth
the high price tag. ie. Endyn's breather kit. Same functionality can be had at a fraction of the cost.
But then again with out people like you companies wouldn't stay in business.


N1 "STYLE" 3 inch muffler with removable silencer, $50.

1 muffler

2 axle back

3 cat-back

4 muffler w/ custom axle back

5 muffler w/ custom cat back

Thanks

I've got the greddy evo cat back with my greddy kit. Not to loud, even with the test pipe, it's smooth and medium to low tone. It's about 2.75" in diameter.

go to the muffler shop. Find a 3" in and out muffler and buy it for $20-30 and call it a day. Or just buy a magnaflow ES oval style 3" in and out.....

No reason for a $170 muffler.....

You may want to try a Warlock "bypass" 3" muffler. For regular driving, it goes through the muffler silencer, for racing, there is a plate (like an e-cutout) that can be removed for straight through exhaust. It's like 70 at Summit.

Thermals are notoriously loud. I have on on my 94 coupe and sounds hella good at the low end, but man anything over 4500 and it really starts to scream. I love mine.
