Default best muffler.....

87 LXI 2.0 FI.. im thinkin about buying a muffler that would make it atleast sound a bit more rugged. any suggestions?? im not realy looking for LOUD, im looking for deep low bass sounding rumble.... i was looking at cherry bombs, anyone had/heard one that sounded good? i miss my 5.0GT mustang, dual str8 pipe. if that gives you any idea of what im shooting for... im seeing names like fireball, blitz, glassfilled... ive got no idea, help help help

Magna flow muffler. $85.... best muffler ive had so far, and ive had all of them. Greddy, Apex-I, knock off brands. Magna flow sounds the best IMO.

youll never find a muffler that will give you a sound similar to ur 5.0 mustang... the v8 can create the rumble that a I4 will never begin to see. now if you put a lopey *** cam in ur engine and a loud muffler, it would begin to try to sound like a v8

youre not going to get that v8 sound out of an inline 4... i dont care what muffler you stick on. theres a difference in sound, just because you can make a 4 cyl loud doesnt mean its going to sound like a v8... even if its a tiny 5.0.

Go with the magnaflow. I've personally had a cat-back greddy SP system on a car of mine in the past, and my brother has a 240sx with one and they both developed leakes a the resonator. Greddy needs to do more R&D on their exhaust s*%t.....

Magna Flow is great, i got mine in march and it makes a deep sound, not lound and annoying. and it was really cheap, i got it installed and it was lyk $180 wit sum piping.

Magnaflow has sound clips of their performance systems on a variety of cars. Just go to their website:

http://www.magnaflow.com/

They sell just mufflers, or you can buy full cat-back systems.....

I forgot about Magnaflow they would probably be my second choice. Apexi is still my first.
