Quiet Mufflers..??
Well Mandrel Exhaust Systems emailed me this morning
"The body on the Super Turbo will not fit with the application we have... I just got a list of Part Numbers now and found there is a variance...
However, the Dynomax (Model: Ultra Flo) will work fine.
To be honest, we have used both models in the past... and preferred the Ultra Flo much more than the Super Turbo... You can check out specs also... the Ultra Flo has better gains and controls volume much better.
Let me know if this is okay.. the system should ship on Monday."
I find it hard to believe the super turbo "wont fit", but it looks like I'll have to go with the Ultra Flo

I will! I'm sure it will sound good, but I'm catless and wanted to keep the noise down 
I guess if it's too ridiculous I can take it to a muffler shop and have them replace it with a Super Turbo.

Hey guys I was reading all of ur previous posts in this thread, and made me want to change my Megan Muffler for a Dynomax Super Turbo. I was thinking though, since it's a full Megan cat-back and not a stock one, I think it's better to get Center/Center for the Dynomax Muffler. Also 2.5 inlet/outlet, but don't really know how big I should get the muffler. Guys got any idea? I have a 3" Catless ZZP Downpipe, and will be having shorty headers in about a week.
(EDIT)
Crap I just noticed they don't have 2.5 inch inlet/outlet for center/center.
I am guessing I will have do make it fit with the 17733 which is offset/center. What do u guys think?

haha posted the link. Not a good clip anyway.. Gonna get a better one with my pro audio soon.. The exhaust sounds really airy for some reason, and I think it's my tip..
I don't know how I feel about the Dynomax. Its made by Walker, which is a very respectable brand, but it uses fiberglass packing. I don't want the sound of my exhaust to eventually go back to being loud.
I think I'm going this route:

All stainless steel. Chambered, looks very similar to the dynomax super turbo, and it uses steel wool packing.
^ Pretty bold claims there.

THESE MUFFLERS ARE GREAT FOR A DAILY DRIVER BUT ARE AGGRESSIVE ENOUGH FOR YOUR WEEKEND RACER. FOR MAXIMUM FLOW AND A VERY AGGRESSIVE SOUND WE ALSO OFFER A STRAIGHT THROUGH TURBO MUFFLER.

i have a zzp header to a catted 3 in downpipe with a maganflow 2.5 catback. the magnaflow muffler is so raspy from mileage im guessing so i wanted to go witht the dynomax turbo muffle
the maganflow cat back has an 5x8x18 side/center muffler and the closest dynomax with 2 1/2 in/out is 4 x 9 3/4 x 18 1/2 i believe. should i be okay fitment wise with this size on my maganflow catback?

Had it in my sig for a while but didn't get a chance to install it until today. I must say the Stainlessworks muffler is AWESOME! It is just a tiny bit louder than stock at idle and cruise, and sounds AWESOME at WOT!
I can finally hear my TVS again!

I love it! The video doesn't really do it justice.
I must admit the old Magnaflow muffler sounded mean as hell, but sometimes you kinda get sick of scaring people on the morning commute at part-throttle or looking over your shoulder every time you decide to get a little spirited.

Sounds really good man, yeah i could definetly hear the tvs now compared to the old magnaflow muffler you had on your car before. I honestly think between the two the stainless works muffler sunds way better none of that high pitched tone the magnaflow gives.
