Need advise on muffler choice
 

I'm looking to replace the factory mufflers on my dailly driver which is an '88GT. I want something with a nice sound but not too loud that can be heard blocks away!
What would be a good choice besides Flowmasters?

i'm likin the sound of my mac's. but they r kinda loud.

Re: Need advise on muffler choice
 

Dynomax mufflers are AWESOME! I love mine!

Re: Need advise on muffler choice
 

Are they loud? I'm just looking for something that has a nice mellow tone...something that sounds mean but not loud as hell.

Re: Need advise on muffler choice
 

I'd say just go with the flowmasters. The 3-chambers aren't in the "loud as hell" category as far as I know.

That is a clip of my fastback....

Sounds sweet but kind of loud. Maybe they won't sound as loud on a stock exhaust system. Your car sounds as if it has headers and aftermarket exhaust pipes. What cam do you have in that thing BTW

Without cats, the 3 chambers are still pretty loud with headers and 2 1/2" pipes. I couldn't stand for mine to be any louder. The guys at the dyno shop held their fingers in their ears while my car was being dynoed.

I don't want flowmasters anyway. I already have a car with them, my '82GT
This is only for a bone stock '88GT that I use for my daily driver. Since I need new mufflers for inspection, I figured I would get an aftermarket set and get a nice tone while I was at it.

My rusty ole 3 chbr's are dumped, and with an or x-pipe, man it's pretty loud, i can barely stand it, It has a drone for sure, when i had cat's and stock headers and tailpipes they were extremely quiet.
My buddy has some spintech's street mufflers that are actually pretty quiet in the low rpm's, but sound mean under wot.

My Dynomax's really aren't that loud. It sounds pretty loud in that soundclip, but the video camera was sitting on the ground right between the exhaust tips. At idle it is very, very mellow and quiet. When you nail it, it does get louder, but nothing obnoxious.

I have longtube headers with a 2-1/2" h-pipe. The cam is 224°/234° and .496"/.520". If you have a stock exhaust (manifolds and cats) then the Dynomax's will be much quieter than they are on my fastback.

Re: Need advise on muffler choice
 

Which dynomax mufflers do you have....maybe I'll look into a set? My 82GT has SINGLE chamber flowmasters with 2.5 inch exhaust, headers and H pipe so you can imagine who loud that is!

Re: Need advise on muffler choice
 

I have the dynomax super turbo's.. pretty quiet at idle, nice rumble..only gets loud when you jump on it..

Re: Need advise on muffler choice
 

I, too, have the Dynomax Super Turbos.

Re: Need advise on muffler choice
 

I have the Flows American thunder no tailpipes, loud as hell, looking into the Flow-Tech Warlocks :D

Re: Need advise on muffler choice
 

I was also considering the Flow-tech afterburners but I think they might be loud too because of their chamber design instead of how the turbo mufflers are designed.
