  • which muffler is best

    What would be the best replacement for the muffler on a stock motor??? I was told that a Flowmaster is not a good muffler for a turbo car because of the baffle design. Anyone have any good suggestions???

    I went with a Spintech, but do a search for MUFFLER, and you will see that there is some good imput with opinions there.

        I;ve got the Magnaflow. It's straight through and sounds nasty.

          I have Magnaflows on my SVO and Turbocoupe and I like them a lot, but I was thinking of trying something different on my Turbo GT.
          My exhaust guy recomended the Flo Pro Twister. Supposedly the spiral baffle creates a vacuum and helps spool up. He put one on his son's WRX and it sounds so mean under boost.

            I have tried several of the Spintech mufflers, the #6444, the #3444XL and the #8444. They all flow within 10% of each other. The difference is price, the #6444 is the cheapest, loudest and best flowing. The #3444XL is about the same price and little quieter. #8444 is the quietest and most $. Got them from the guy on ebay, very good to deal with. You can also get these models in Stainless steel, for more money of course.

                  which muffler is best

                  Thanks for all the input guys. Now I guess I'll have to make a choice. Money may be the ultimate factor, but I will not get anything cheap. Luckily my wife will not argue and she'll probably let me get what I want (its great having a wife that loves cars too).

                      For the money, I'd look at theDynomax Ultra-Flow!! about $70 for a 2-1/2".. Sound is really good also..

                          I was using the Hooker Aerochamber and they flowed really well. I switched to the Flowmaster single chamber and like the sound much better. I'm more superficial and can careless if I'm losing a few ponies by running the FM's..

                            This is what I use, its cheap and sounds great. One guy asked me if I had a 460 in the car. It might be a little loud, it pisses off my wife.
