I want the quietest possible muffler for my teg, it is way too loud and i want to get a quit one, which is the quitest? I saw on carparts.com hook headers 3 inch turbo muffler would that be a muffler i can use?

 

greddy sp would be quiet on your car.. not the same power as a full 3" mandrel bent w/ a apex'i turbo n1 though, or possibly the 3" thermal (almost as loud as open downpipe, haven't seen power results yet, but looks good)

 

magnaflow... you got the custom piping and all... now add a magnaflow muffler. quietest straight through muffler i know of.

the "turbo mufflers" are restrictive... 3" but not straight through. another good one is borla, but that might be too loud (though they claim to be street legal) and another option might be gibson.

BTW, do you have a resonator on your exhaust?

stock, HAR HAR!

I'm running the EVO, it's no 3" pipe but it's quiet.

Almost any straight thru is going to be loud.

I sacrificed some hp by getting a Apexi World Sport. I don't care that I'm losing power over a 3" straight through because it's very quiet. Even at WOT, all you really hear is the WG opening.

18psi with a Apexi WS is enough power for me.

 

greddy mufflers are always quiet.

 

But greddy mufflers arent 3''

 

5Zigen... Quiet & 80mm (a little over 3") and has the name brand and well known quality.

 

I am gonnna keep my custom 3 inch piping and just put on a muffler, if i get the cheapest apex muffler, i think world sport. like you said muffler should it be quit? Would is be okay too if i just went to a muffler shop and got one of there 3 inch mufflers? would is sound terrible, quit, ok? im looking only to spend like 100-150

Where is a good place to get a muffler online? Used would be better. Or, does anyone have one they want to let go?

 

you dont care that yor losing ~15-20 whp?

well i guess that much boost is gonna make it feel negligable anyways.

 

I got my 3" magnaflow from http://www.roadraceengineering.com I've heard some mixed stories about those guys, but my order came out OK. My custom 3" exhaust turned out great. Let me know if you want some pics, I'll post them up.

I think the muffler was like $80 or so.

 

3" Glasspack baby! har har har......I don't drive my car daily so I'm going with a 3" custum exhaust and a 3" glasspack.....Doubt it'll be quite at all. I just can't stand the power i'm losing my with current 2.25" flowmaster exhaust

 

Heh, heh, you wanna talk restrictive and power loss ? I run a type R muffler on the street ! DP to Flex to B pipe to muffler. Talk about sleeper, that baby sounds like a turtle getting strangled. All W/G ! I can free-rev on a victim, I mean person... and it sounds ultra stock.

Anyone know if the R muffler is straight thru ? It sure looks like it.
