| alright, now that this mod has been around for several months, i was wondering if anyone on the forum went a different route and put in a magnaflow rear muffler instead of a flowmaster. i'm thinking about going that route. |

Yes I did, see page 5 of this thread, it is not loud but but a nice deep performance tone. |

Sorry to hear about this , hope all works out for you , the car is sad of course however , let's hope that you neck and back feel better , i understand your feelings about the car being damaged the way it is and then repaired , i do however believe they will claim is as repairable and not totaled .

I finally got tired of seeing that mid-muffler hanging there in front of my snow-plow fuel shield. So, I went to the local Midas. Mr. Midas suggested that, with the ginormous muffler in the back, the middle muffler is likely unnecessary.
So, they took it out and welded-in a piece of straight pipe. I can hardly hear a difference in the exhaust sound (tone or volume). My wife didn't notice a difference either. I don't hear a rice-burner tone like Linky described when he removed his mid-muffler.
In addition to not having to see it, my MPG has gone up... from 16.9 to 18.5. That's with slightly-oversized Yokohama Geolandars..... I think the actual MPG number is about 5% higher due to the tire size...
So, overall I'm pretty happy with the outcome.
I appreciate everyone's willingness to share their experiences - thanks to all. |

How does it sound? Similar to an FX or FM exhaust? I am debating which route to go as I get good prices on Magnaflow over Flowmaster but most people on this forum has gone with the Flowmaster.
Do you have a sound clip? |

Well, I went ahead and did it, I installed a Magnaflow 14266 and 14865 in the center, muffler shop used 2.25 pipe, from the cat all the back. Sounds nice and deep, and is not much louder than factory installed. But my biggest fear with doing this is that my MPG would suffer, in fact it has gone to other side. I use to get 18-19 MPG, but now I get 22-23 in traffic, can not wait to make a road trip, great power and very good acceleration.
So I am very confused, here. Could someone who has much greater knowledge about this tell, or me or come up with an idea. As how heck this mod has got things so much better. Honestly I was after a deeper tone, and was willing the pay the price in lost MPG.:confused:
any sound clips? |
