Where can I get aftermarket parts for cheaper?
 

Does anyone know where I can get aftermarket parts for my 96? I've been looking all over the place for a new full exhaust but they all go for like $900! All I've found is a CAI for 40 (really good deal) but it's just stupid how much it costs for some metal pipes. lol

Just build your own. I've done all my own cars.

What muffler would you recommend?


I have the Pacesetter exhaust system and the muffler is too loud.

Depends on the sound you want. Personally I liked magnaflow. pace setter probably has a high flow cat, that means loud. I would just get a resonator if you like the sound and its just too loud. Put it between cat and muffler. My max has a terrible setup.. It's 3 inch all the way from headers, it does have a warpspeed tho. I think. May be generic. no cat, and I think a DC can muffler? Oh, and instead of cat it has a cherry bomb...long red hot rod 'muffler' yeah, its stupid loud and doesn't know if it wants to sound like a camaro or a 350z. I didn't do it, and I haven't redone it yet. Just got it running again.

The Pace setter I have is a cat-back system I purchased off of Amazon (loved the free shipping to Hawaii).


It already has a resonator between the catalytic and the muffler. This system utilizes 2 1/4" tubing. The exhaust sounds good, but just too loud for this 40 year old!

I bought a magnaflow but haven't put it on yet, am planning on it soon though

if u need to replace the entire exhaust system (excluding headers) then be prepared to spend money.

Check out rockauto.com, If you want OEM, direct bolt up (easiest install) then, yea i would say over 900 bucks plus labor.

If you want cheapest route, then u have to build your own exhaust. You will still need a ypipe (suggest warpspeed for ease of installation), a cat (magnaflow hi flow is the cheapest), a resonator (ebay, same length of OEM), and a muffler (ebay fart can with removable silencer). Let a shop install. You might be able to do this for 800 bucks but probably more.

EDIT:

I had a dynomax super turbo street muffler, and it was high flow no noise. The sport version has a little noise, barely audible. These are high flow so exit gas velocity on the low rpm end will be lower. U make up for it on the high end rpm tho :) if u like to go fast.

Most other name brand muffler will be hella loud lol from what i have read.

Maybe you can buy that Pace Settter cat-back exhaust system off of Amazon for $200. Just change the muffler out (maybe no need if you like loud exhaust).
