The guy has good fedback so why not. It has the right offsets so go for it. I never heard of dynomax THRUSH before though.

hmm, 16 bucks plus maybe another 20-30 for shipping puts u at about 36. I know there's a website that has the super turbo muffler for 50 shipped. I would probably go for that but this seems like a better deal if its all good. Tell me how things go, i may get from this guy too.

what is the website for the super turbo that you can get for $50 shipped? i really wanted one of those, but i saw this, and just figured that for the price, it was worth a shot, but if i can find a super turbo muffler, then ill gladly take that. if you wanna include me in on some good news, id appreciate it.

i'm so mad cause i seriously forgot the name, and i checked my favorites. F*ck, they discussed this in the north east section a few weeks back. It was from a store u wouldnt expect to get mufflers from or u wouldnt really go tot hem for mufflers but other things....summit racing or osmething...

The best place I saw for dynomax mufflers was Jegs.com. I believe it was $50 for a 2.5" Super Turbo Muffler. Hope this helps.

Offset in, center out and get the 2.25 if your b-pipe is stock.

how did you install it? Did you just disconect the flange that is a footish behind the muffler and just hack the old one off and slip this one on, then rebolt it up?
also what did you use to hang from the stock grommets?

i havent done it yet. i just want to get a custom exhaust set up done, and wanted to know whether i should go with 2.5 in piping or 2.25 piping from the resonator. im also not sure if i just wanna straight pipe it and have no resonator. I know i want the dynomax muffler though.

If you have a y-pipe don't even think of not getting a resonator. **** the test pipe POS and get 2.5" piping.

yeah, im getting a y pipe, so ill stick with the resonator. i wont be getting a test pipe, ill leave the cat on, and just have the muffler shop fabricate a little something for me. so i should be using the offset:2.5 center:2.5 muffler for this application?

I wish someone told me bout the resonator before....I just got my Y-pipe today. My car is loud as hell. Bout a month ago I got a 2.5 pipe from the catback hooked up to a Magnaflow Exhaust. Tne sound was pretty good. Now my car sounds like a monstre. The Y- pipe truly frees up flow.....
