Alright guys. If any of you have heard my car then you are perfictally aware that my car is LOUD. Over the bast few weeks I have decided that it is too loud. So now I have came to the conclusion that I want the exact opposite.
Any suggestions of a good flowing quiet muffler. My deffinition of quiet is, lest say, more muffled then Magnaflows for example. I don't want to hear the exhuast anymore.....
WTF, is wrong with me ![[Confused]](confused.gif)

Dynomax 'Ultraflows'
They flow ~1000cfm each.
Second choice would be spintechs.

On a 5 liter I would go with the borla setup. I have the borla mufflers and side pipes that came with the SVO ground effect package. The quality of borla speaks for itself and what is nice is that when I am just cruising the car is not to loud. Its very tolerable and I have an o/r pipe. Whats nice is when you get the rpms up high it sounds like a nascar!! I was like you about 3 years ago in that my car was to loud. Switched to this setup and it is perfect for me!! Hope this helps

I'm swapping to Borla XR-1's, which frees up a pair of slowmaster 2-chambers if you're interested. They aren't incredibly loud. 2 people can *almost* carry on a conversationn at highway speeds, lol (slowmasters).
let me know, before I do something stupid like put the slowmeisters on my other cars, lol.
If you want quiet though, geez rummage around behind a muffler shop and find some F-150 take-offs ![[worship]](graemlins/worship.gif)

My current setup is long tubes, o/r H, and 2 chamber flows. Everyone loves the sounds of the car. It isn't really loud when I'm off the gas. But once I get into it watch the hell out! ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
If you want proof, come to the track, I'll be there
LAST302 - I dont want it to be loud at WOT...thats what I'm trying to get away from...lol

our cars probably sound identical
I have MAC 1 5/8" longtubes, off-road shorty H, and 2-chamber blowmasters
actually, I'm sure they sound identical, lol.
oh well, if you want in your face proof of what mufflers not to run (to be quiet) wait till you see my XR1's
on my car, the longtubes significantly quieted the car down (compared to the factory shorty headers and a normal length off-road H) with the 2-chamber slowmasters

interesting... I've run E7TE, GT-40, GT-40P, TFS TW, and my car always sounds the same?
anyways, they say HP makes the noise, so maybe my shit was just screwed up. probably.
