    Looking for a good set of MUFFLERS

     



    I want the least amount of noise as possible.Something that flows better than stock though.Any suggestions.I am going to install a set of the electronic exhaust openers for when I need all out power.Untill then I want people to think I am running with nothing to big.Thanks

    Im pushing for 500 ,600 hp on nitrous,400 on straight motor.So I'd say 2 1/2 to 3". Also I was reading that the x cross will help cancel out some of the exhaust(helping keep it quite),and of course it will help performance also.I would like to run tails(flames out the back wouold be nice ) ,but my suspesion is lowered so It might have to exit under the truck right in front of the rear end.I think if I can get out back ,it would be a little quiter also. Thanks

    Another question, where would the best location for the electric openers be?Would it be at the end of the header,or behind the x member?Thanks
    Now thinking about it I think it needs to be behind the x member.

    Super Trapp makes an end muffler that you add disc to adjust whatever sound you want either loud or soft. I use them on my 37 and they work great.
    Keep smiling, it only hurts when you think it does!
