summit muffler = 17.95
Flow Tech glas pack = 18.95

and what ever your piping you choose = sound good for cheap.

depends on richness, speed of flow, egt's, all of that stuff. i had a dynomax race (aka summit bullet), after about 75 miles it wasn't really getting any louder.

get a magnaflow or simliar. as nice as the price tag of a summit racing muffler looks, the internal baffles kill flow. I'd expect a loss of spool in the 400-500RPM range in that muffler alone in the same size vs. the magnaflow straight through.

2.5 is good for like 450hp, 3" over 650.

2.5 is plenty.

But doesnt a 3'' have more response than a 2.5?

Turbos dont need back pressure, is it not a case the bigger the better?

i have 3in with high flow cat 20in or so resinator, and a flowmaster muffler, and its not loud when at idle or regular driving, sounds good. But if i get on it or if im on the high way it gets a little loud, ill throw some ear plugs in on long trips.

But when the wastegate opens, the angry bees come back
