So I'm just wondering what mufflers you guys are running on your cars (brand, type, size ect.) as I am trying to find one for mine. Now I already plan on getting a new header sometime this month or next and I have an after market catback but with an oem muffler on it. I really want to go for something that doesn't sound "ricey" as some would call it. I'm looking more for a deeper note where you can really here the engine (i.e not an artificial sound)
Anyway thank you in advance for any and all help guys =) -------------------- ![]() Power in Balance 90 ST coupe- Sold 95 ST hatch- Dead :’( 02 Impreza RS- DD |

Flowmaster 40 on a stock system. Nice deep tone, no droning and quiet until you get on it.

Ive herd good about the flowmaster 40, how is it at 70mph? Not an issue at 70. I'm constantly doing trips from Chicago to MI and usually its only 70+. Even at 80, the car is pretty quiet. I'm positive that with a header, 2.5" pipe, resonator and a 40 it will be louder. As of right now though, I'm perfectly content with the way it is.... -------------------- ~bloodMoney

i have a header, stock resonator and 2 1/2 inch pipe, magnaflow at the end and it is a bit loud. nothing major or anything but i will say it makes a nice noise, low rumble driving along and at highway speeds its not bad.

The higher the #'s go on the Flowmaster series, the quieter they are. I picked the 40 b/c I had it on a previous car when I got rid of it.

My girlfriend doesnt want the car to be loud especially when my last celica had a no cat exhaust =p, so Ill most likely check out the 60 series. -------------------- ![]() Power in Balance 90 ST coupe- Sold 95 ST hatch- Dead :’( 02 Impreza RS- DD |

ah so I've been trying to find a muffler still and it is harder than I thought. Ive been trying to get sound clips off ebay and so forth but I cant seem to find a quiet enough muffler. I know I'm being picky trying to get performance without being loud and not expencive but there has to be something. Note I'm mainly concerned of the noise from 0-3400 rpm, after that It can be loud.

you can get free flowing oval mufflers that have a free path but are packed full of baffle.

Here's a crappy in-car video that I just took. This is an OEM exhaust system with just a flowmaster 40 muffler.
I tried to take one outside of the car, but the wind noise is louder than the exhaust lol In-car Exhaust Outside sound This post has been edited by bloodMoney: Mar 3, 2011 - 9:15 AM -------------------- ~bloodMoney

I like it because I can take the car anywhere and there's no droning that bothers me, but then I'll get on it and it sounds like it does. Now keep in mind that this does absolutely NOTHING as far as performance, its just a small noisemaker lol
I got an 2.5" offset in-offset out muffler b/c I took these mufflers off my old ford. I would recommend the offset-offset, but you will need an adapter to size the exhaust up to the inlet for the muffler. Any good exhaust shop should be able to do this for you. -------------------- ~bloodMoney

I don't plan for any performance from a muffler but I have a fairly new catback that came on the car when I got it, and my uncle has a welder so Ill just take it to his place. I think the outlet is 2" on my car so I just need to find one as close to that now

I have 2" pipe from the stock headers back, going through a stock v6 resonator and stock v6 muffler off another Toyota (92 ES300) very quiet, deep sound. feels slightly peppier during free revvs and driving.
