Best sounding muffler IYO?
 
What is the best sounding muffler out there in your opinion? When i get the rest of my DP finished I'm just gonna have 2.5 piping ran back, but I'm gonna need a muffler. I'm tempted to just buy a "Tanabe Style" generic muffler because I've heard that Tanabe Racing Medallion sounds good..

Let me know what sounds good and where to get em..

I have an RS*R catback. I kept it because it's already 2.5", and you can barely hear it. Sounds stock.

I prefer the 2.25 with two large glasspacks, and a resonated tip, sounds nice and deep, and only cost me about 120 from my muffler shop. But your going turbo, so i would say 2.5, and some glasspacks, CHEAP, and sounds great.

use a stock muffler off a car that came with 2.5 inch piping. maybe a turbo muffler. they work great for muscle cars. they're quiet at idle and cruising, but when you WOT they open up and let the exhaust out. no rice boy mufflers people please.

I was waiting for the rice alternative, Random. Thanks. Do you think this could be any stock replacement from a muffler shop with those inlet sizes, or would you only trust a true stock? I hate noise. (I'm Stealth) :-*

But no matter what still go with like one or two glasspacks no matter the muffler?

Might be time to look for a junkyard muffler... Thanks for the help random

well i wouldn't go as far as saying a junkyard muffler. mufflers are really cheap.

if you have enough space for a turbo muffler. yes thats a brand :) go for it. they're wide. they aren't like a glasspack. but you can get em with 2.5inch inlets and outlets.

also. what size pipe do v6 camaros and mustangs have? what about v8 trucks. they gotta have a big muffler on them. that'll give you good flow and no noise :)

i have all stock exhaust except my downpipe on my crx. quiet as hell until the turbo starts whistling
