I have a $100 gift certificate to SummitRacing and I wanna get a Universal Muffler and get A custom exhaust done. I want 3" piping, 1 High-flow cat, no resonator, to a nice sounding muffler. I was thinking Borla since they have a respectable name. I want something loud that I will hear on the interior. What do you guys suggest. I know Hahn has a nice one but its not available on summit racings website. I dont even know if you can just get their muffler either.

THis is what I was thinking:

What generally sounds better, round or Oval? Straight through or Offset. I would imagine round straight-through would be loudest. Oval straight through would be same but alittle quieter. Oval Offset would be a little quiter than that

 

to be honest with you, I would just do a muffler delete and save the certificate for something else

 

^ i agree

 

it sounds good i must say just dont spend more than 50 on doing it

 

X2^ sounds sickkk not tooo loud either

 

It doesnt get too raspy?

 

and if you want if to sound louder and even better also get a catless DP

glen, you tint your headlights?..look nice

 

Yea but I also wanna pass inspection...

 

me too i think i am going to just get the catless dp and switch it back when it's time for emissions testing

 

ok then get Hahns catted DP...it will sound pretty close to a catless

 

it's not available yet and will probably be way more than synapses catless dp

 

I heard the setup I said with an Apexi Muffler that sounded absolutely insane. I also heard an LSJ with injen CAI and just a borla muffler with Oval tip and it sounded mind blowing. I want that sound, not really feeling the muffler-less sound I heard. I really liked the Hahn sound. Is there no muffler that will get me close to that? I wish I could just get sound clips off an LNF but there hard to come by.

 

LSJ and LNF have totally different sounds because of the turbo

 

^I know otherwise I would have just checked youtube, but i dont really see many vids with an LNF.

The Apexi was on an LNF though, but thats a $250 muffler lol. not feeelin that

 

nope ebay tinted gen 1's woudnt suggest them tho the lenses are like 1/2 the thickness of the regular ones and the halogen bulbs melted them before my Hids came in... now that i have the hids they run 1/3 as hot therfore no meltage

but thanks

 

ive always liked magnaflows on turbo'd cars. not sure if anyone has them on the LNF yet. i dont mind the HHR SS vid clip on their website.

do a muffler delete....

welcome back joe, did u get ur car back yet? sorry to thread jack-- just pm me joe

 

muffler delete sounds good. but even u say at the beginning of that post thats temporary untill you get a 3". What my OP says is that I wanna get a 3" and what muffler should I use. Everyone is saying to leave stock piping and just cut off muffler. I doubt that nets the best performance gains.

If you were to go ahead and get 3" piping, what muffler would you go with. Or would you run Straight pipe from that as well.

 

gestapo, do u have a link to the apexi muffler on a SS/TC???

 

Straight pipe all the way!! I have 3" piping with a muffler delete

 

I dont, Iv heard it in person. Its a guy thats on here, hes just not as active. Ill send him a message and see if he can get a vid of it. It sounds real nice though.

U got a vid of that. It sounds like a sweet deal to me I just wonder how it sounds. Iv only heard stock piping with a muffler delete.

 

I wish I did have a vid man, sorry. This is the closest sounding to it I could find and it actually sounds just like it...listen to the whole thing because it is loud when you first start it up because it's cold then when it warms up it quiets down
