I will be replacing the stock muffler on my 3rd gen pretty soon and am pretty sure I want a 5th gen muffler. Someone mentioned that the 5 and 5.5 gen mufflers are different to me awhile back.

So my question is: are there any differences between the two mufflers?
And also, do the mufflers vary between trim levels (single tip vs. twin tip, quieter vs. louder)?

 

afaik, all 5th gen's have the same muffler, except one has an oval chrome tip over both exhaust holes, and one has one circle chrome tip over each exhaust hole.

and, i don't believe any stock 5th gen has a single tipped exhaust.

 

I believe they are all the same as well.

 

They are both the same.

 

Same!

I have had them both now... I miss the tips on my original 00' SE.

 

 

all the same....well except the fables AE that has 5 extra hp

 

That's the magical muffler.

 

I put three on my car and gained 15hp.

 

want mine? im going to switch out my exhaust in a couple of days.. im PM you if i end up not using it.. just pay shipping..

mufflers for 5 and 5.5 are the same by the way.

 

i hated my stock tips.....The magnaflow tips REALLY looks nice

 

everyone has different taste man
