Crazy idea for Muffler Dumps (pics inside)

Gautam · 05-21-2001, 10:23 PM

Hi,
I posted earlier about the idea of having
dumps on my muffler. Well, after several
days of planning on the most easiest and
cheapest way to do it, I have created
this diagram showing my idea (please go
ahead and laugh, starting now). I'm going
to look into this idea tomorrow since all
stores are closed on this ugly/rainy
Victoria's day.

Bye!

Hi,
I've looked at the MustangWorld idea several months ago, and that is what gave me the idea. But I didn't exactly have tools to go out and cut a cap off an oil drum, so I thought about this idea over several days and this is the easiest/cheapest way I could do it.

Hope it works...

Bye!

Hi,
I went down to Master Performance and got a quote: $200+tax (includes parts+labour) if I get the holes cut-out, muffler-hangers relocated, and cut-outs welded.

$100+tax (includes parts+labour) if I only get the cut-outs welded (holes I would have to do myself).

I dunno, $100+tax seems good but cutting holes myself would seem like a daunting task. I dunno, maybe I'll hold off on this idea...

(All prices Canadian)

Bye!

I think Warlocks run about $50 each.

Gautam · 05-25-2001, 01:05 PM

Hi,
I haven't gotten any price quotes yet on the Warlocks at my local dealers, but the thing is, I love the sound of my car (it sounds nice at higher RPMs), so I basically wanted the same sound amplified...It's a Mac Cat-back (Flowpaths I think).

Oh well, it's not a big deal for me...

Maybe one day I'll look into a pre-muffler cut-out...

Bye!

Why don't you just install a set of un-caps from jeg's. They're cheaper than the warlock mufflers or custom work to your existing mufflers ($53.00 /pr) and you'll probably get better exhaust flow out of them.

429mustang · 05-27-2001, 01:05 AM

Nevermind, I checked out your drawing and one of your responces. Your current mufflers give a certain sound you like and you just want to make that sound louder, right?

Gautam · 05-27-2001, 07:53 AM

Hi,
Firstly, I've gotten a price-quote on Flowmasters and Warlocks. Flowmasters are $170CDN ea. ($110US) and Warlocks are $167CDN ea. ($108US). After %15 tax, I'm looking at about $195CDN per muffler + installation = $250CDN. Kinda steep if ya ask me.

Basically I'm trying to create a sound closer to running an Off-road H-pipe with Flowmaster or Macs (I've heard those and they sound real bad-a$$). I prolly won't get such a sound since I'm running stock headers, and 4 cats.

I've never really heard my car on hard acceleration, but my friends have told me its loud as it is. Maybe my ear-drums have gotten used to the current sound that it seems quite to me now.

Bye!

Hi,
Ya, I've looked quite a lot on the 'net
to see if I could find any cut-away views
of the muffler, which I couldn't find.

It's ok now; I've put this idea behind me,
since it's not worth it and will prolly
just make it sound worse.

Bye!
