Default Ractive Muffler

For the price are they worth it? Anyone have one? How is the power/sound??

I have one. Power is what anybody could expect from any muffler...not much. Mandel bent pipes Lots of styles and choices. Mine is hella loud, but thats cause I was stupid and bought a resonated tip. I am changing tips and hopefully it will be quieter. I rate the sound as 7.5/10.

If your low on cash...go for it.

Not too loud though is it. I had 1 resonator put in there and is was way too loud. Hurt my ears when I would punch it. Put the second resonator in there and it quieted down nicely. Got the resonators from the local muffler shop. Some people say that I should spend the extra cash and get a thermal exhaust. Don't know how much more it would be but if you like your current set up them maybe I'll stick to it. Performance I beilive would be the about the same anyways. As for the sound is it a deep throaty sound of high and whiney??

WEll, mine right now is stupid loud...kinda buzzy, but again, thats cause I got this stupid double layer resonated muffler tip. Like, if you just take the tip and flick it with your finger, it makes a loud ping sound....so having lots of air moving past it would make lots of noise. I bought a single layer oval tip a week ago, and I am installing it as soon as my body kit comes in.

then, if its still to loud then I might get a resonater... I'll let you know.
