im trying to buy a performance muffler for a 07 LS but i dont know what inlet size to get
2 1/2 ? or what

 

uhm i believe its 1 7/8.

i would just try and pick up an ss/sc exhaust though bro. for the same price or a little more youll actually get a gain out of it.

 

im really just lookin for a muffler to get put on, no cat back or anything..im just not sure what to buy

 

do you have any mods to the car already ? or do you plan on modding it at all besides the muffler ?

 

You dont want just a muffler, The stock piping is SMALL, Like said above at least get a ss/sc catback and put a muffler on it

 

only thing i got right now is a cold air intake nothing big until i find a better paying job..im just sick of the stock muffler and wanna make it louder and ****

 

I put the SS/SC catback on mine. The pipe diameter is a bit bigger. LOL but i got mine for like 45 shipped with ss/sc springs from a guy that just wanted them gone. I sold just the springs for 60 and used the 15 extra from that to get the pipe welded where it was cut, so mine was pretty much free.

I wanna say the ss/sc exhaust is 2.25in, and the LS is 2in someone correct me if i'm wrong

 

well should i do a 2 1/2in piping then

 

ok so you have plans to mod then. the exhaust on the ls is to small to see your gains with i/im/h/dp thats if you plan on doing all of them. just save your money and buy a catback or run straight pipe youll be much happier if you wait and do it correctly.

im not trying to bust your chops, its just the truth bro

thats a good size to go with, but go no bigger then 2.5 inch piping unless you plan on f/i in the future

 

yeah that sounds like the best idea... save up some cash and go with a full exhaust system ex. header, downpipe, catback. That will give you the best results

 

dumb question but can i get a SS cat back to work with my LS...im lookin on sites and all i see mainly is exhaust for ss

 

the only exhausts you cant get are the ss.tc because its a 3 bolt pattern then you will need to modify them. any other exhaust will be fine

will that work for example?

 

yes it will, have you heard a clip for how it will sound though ? and if you choose that one get 2.5 piping

 

you sure can... any of the 2.2, 2.4, and 2.0 catbacks are interchangeable. you could also use the header and dp from ss/sc as well

and about the the three bolt on the ss/tc, I thought that the gmpp would work with it so wouldn't it be the same as the ss/sc and the rest of them

 

as far as i no you have to buy an adapter plate for it to work but i could be wrong

 

no, no clip yet..im trying to stay in the $400,$500 range also

 

make sure when you hear the clip you know all mods done to the car or it will sound different on yours being your basically stock. unless it says its a stock car in the clip.

that is doable thats a decent range. theres a member on here selling his corsa used for 450. its like 800 bucks new. just something you could look into

 

you could get a tsudo exhaust system I wanna say like 230 or so shipped, you could also look through the parts threads and find pretty good deals on used exhaust systems.

there are plenty sound clips for that exhaust on youtube

 

i can get a muffler place to custom 2 1/2in pipes for me and put a muffler on that to right..thats what my friend did to his Subaru

 

yea you can do that too

 

ya i did see that one before..not a bad deal i guess

 

I'm gonna putting the tsudo on my car soon. I've heard mostly good things about it, and I mean hell its just an exhaust.... to me it looks just like the megan cat back with a smaller diamter outlet, but a cheaper price

 

I run pretty much run open pipes(resonator delete, exhaust dumps on rear axles) most the time i drive,
I started off just changing the muffler but over time, you want more done to car to suit your style, depends on the driver. change you muffler and see how you like it.

I'd suggest the GM Performance Exhaust.. With a high flow cat. Thats my plan for a setup on my LT.
