What Muffler????
I'm trying to figure out which muffler I need to get the deepest tone possible from my LSJ with the factory resonator. If anyone could upload sounds, link me to them or send 'em to me via e-mail with a description of the muffler, it'd be highly appreciated. Like I said, I want as deep of a sound as possible while being noticeably loud. Gonna be running duals through the dual opening rear lip I got. Something close to the sound of a factory SRT-4 is what I'm looking for as far as tone.

for the muffler, i would ask your "muffler" guy what their suggestions would be. they deal with this all the time. mine is really good, been in the business for a while, and although he costs a little more, the quality is definitely there. He suggested to me custom race mufflers from a buddy of his. sounds bitchin and works great. decent in low R's, loud/deep when you get on it. here are pics of mine...
i would suggest doing one tip on both sides...something subtle, but its there. don't want it to be too outrageous

i love the look of your dual exhaust. It's very subtle, and classy looking.

He is probably asking you why because there is no performance gains and possibly even a loss in power from going dual on your car

I'd be worried about lack of backpressure with duals. Don't wanna fry the valves or cut down your torque...I've seen this happen to a couple friends with bad exhaust setups. Four cylinders are very dependent on backpressure.

Oh, I'm well aware of the extreme need of backpressure the LSJ has. If need be, you can restrict the pipe. It's just gonna take a little playin'.
