looking for a muffler replacement

I did a search and havent found any recent threads with up to date PNs. Anways im looking for a loud muffler but not straight pipe loud. Somthing moderate. Drone is no issue for me. It will be going on stock piping. I was thinking magnaflow. Thanks

If you're only going for the muffler go with the MagnaFlow Street Series, that's what I would do

That's what I'm doing and going with stainless lol since mine rusted away. But it did get real raspy, so no I am doing a stainless 3" Cat-back with a Magnaflow. This should be the perfect combo.. I hope. It is being built by Ottp as we speak.

Magnaflow blows. Packing will burn up really quick. Everyone who is running one - go tap on it with a hammer and see if there is any packing left. Mine was hollow after 6 months.

This is what I am currently using, great quality.

Tried a big Dynomax once, blew out a baffle a few months later. Internals destroyed. They don't take kindly to exhaust fireballs.

I agree about the packing burning out, local guy went through at least 3 that I know of but he was catless
