Hi,

I wanna get a high flow cat and also a performance muffler. Here are my questions:

1. Will the high flow cat make my car smoke?
2. What kind of muffler is recommended for performance not noise. I don't want my max to sound like a stupid Honda. A little deep sound is ok but not too much.

Thanks guys

 

Magnaflow....

 

magnaflow, but it will drone from 2000-2500 rpm. sound is nice and deep. i personally don't mind the noise.

 

No.

The age old muffler question......

I'm on my third muffler in search of the perfect sound. My exhaust is a Warpspeed Y pipe and a 2.5" B pipe with 18" resonator with a Carsound HiFlow cat.

1. Edelbrock RPM (2.5" C In, C out) - Interesting idea and it should've worked better. But it was VERY loud. So loud that it made listening to the stereo unbearable.

2. Magnaflow (2.5" C In, Dual 2.25 Out) - Again, WAY to loud.

Both of the above setups might as well be straight pipes. That's not what I want from a car like a Max. If I want noise I'll take add a few rings (or take them all off) to the SuperTrapp muffler on my MR2 SC and rev to 7500 rpm.

3. Generic "Turbo" muffler from Mieneke Muffler (2.5" C In, 2.5 Offset Out) - Noisy. With a 2.5" resonator tip it becomes not quiet, but livable. I can listen to the stereo. No droaning at any speed. Highway cruising is excellent. Put your foot in it and you get a nice deep tone, especially once past 3500 rpm. This is a livable setup.

I'm still thinking of going to something different. Maybe one of those Gen5 mufflers. I really want something quieter on the street. with some noise when I boot it!

Good luck. Mufflers are really a matter of taste.

 

I like the Greddy. Looks nice, has a deep throaty sound, and gives reasonable power gains.

 

does anyone know anywhere i can still find a Greddy. I know they discontinued them a while ago but maybe someone knows somewhere online I could find one.

 

see if greddy still has them? mabey they have a few left, try Stillen too.
