Gas Prices when up and now a hole in my muffler (factory)....

This whole weekend driving back and forth drained a full tank of gas. I was looking at the Cattman exhaust or any suggestion(s) for another muffler.. just DON'T want something LOUD, tried to listen to clips but just want someone to guide towards the right muffler.....Thanx in advance..

If you're trying to stay quiet, there are really only two real choices:
Frankencar, or a new OEM muffler (or an OEM replacement). The Frankencar is pretty much impossible to get these days, as they are "on hiatus" from making them and no word when/if they'll ever start again...so if you want quiet, I would suggest that you just go with a new OEM muffler.

The Cattman is fairly loud, since it's a straight-through design....it does look nice though, and is stainless...

If you need an OEM muffler, go to Autopart International. They have good OEM replacement parts at a good deal. OEM muffler with chrome tip will cost you about $90 plus shipping.
