I'm thinkin' about spending my tax returns on a set of mufflers for the 72. I'm only looking to spend about $200 max. I'm looking for something really good and throaty, without drone, or restriction. I've never really heard a turbo muffler I don't think, but I'm looking for something that sounds more like open headers, really low.



I was also thinking of maybe buying a cam instead. I don't really know anything about them though, other than it's a great power adder. I don't know what I have on the car currently or if there even is one, so I'm scared to order something and not have any gain.

SUGGESTIONS?

whats been done to the car now? do you have dual exhaust? headers? Do you not want to run tailpipes? If you want to make noise buy flowmaster. I don't like flowmaster IMO dynomax super turbos are the best. Summit turbo mufflers are certainly cheap and sound okay. Any muffler system dumped right at the axle will be moany and droany iniside the car.

the motor is a 350. it has dual exhaust, dumped behind the tires, and it does have headers, though i'm not sure the brand or size. i was thinking about the dynomax personally since i hear so many people running them on here, but i've never heard them personally. i want to know what will be loud and low without robbing performance, because i don't have enough hp to be losing any thanks to a muffler. haha. :no:

I'm not sure what size muffler to get or what size for the outlets either. Is bigger case size better, or worse? Also I heard that straight through mufflers are better performance and also louder? I don't really know much about exhaust.

magnaflows are straight thru...you'll probably want 2 or 2 1/4" measure you exhaust pipe.do you have dual exhaust now?get under ther and see what style you have....center in off set out or offset in center out...center in center out.bm

it is dual exhaust. mufflers are flowmax, i think? terribly quiet, but okay for a stock sound...and are offset on each side.

I thought Flowmax was a pill us older guys take when we have trouble taking a leak.

maybe you mean FlowMaster.

figure out what they are...maybe do a drawing(with measurements and offsets)go to magnaflow.com and get the matching mufflers to you drawing...get the part # and then go to ebay,summitracing.com,jegs.com....do some comparison shopping and buy the ones with the best price which includes shipping and tax.

 

[micahmayhem]

I know it's terrible right, but that's what they are and I'd be happier with flowmasters trust me and I'm not even partial to them. It's a knock off that was on the car when I bought it and I'm done with them.

There is room in a third gen for an 18 inch long muffler case; however, a 14 inch case is more the norm. If you really want it quiet, but a second round one in the rear.

 

[micahmayhem]

NO! I'm sorry if that's how it was sounding, I'm wanting to wake the neighborhood! :devil: No, not quite. I don't want to be pulled over for making too much noise, but I do plan on dynomatting the car so I'm not really worried about a noise comfort level.
