I would like to give my 2k1 Max that really low, solid, exhaust tone of a German car... like a BMW, Mercedes or even a Volkswagen. I absolutely don't want ricey. It has to be solid but not obtrusive into the cabin at highway speeds or under hard acceleration... no droning. The kind of sound you really feel as much as hear.

Is there an after-market muffler that would do this? maybe removing the resonator? I am also interested in keeping costs as low as possible.

Thanks for advice...

I have the greddy evo. Im very happy with the tone. Its not ricey and theres no drone. The system was quite pricey though.

 

Yup. But if you ever add a Y-pipe, you're going to be in for something of a shock!

 

I know what what your talking about
If i didntget the greddy i was going to get a y-pipe and an udp
Price would have been about the same. But Im not regreting it.

 

Click on my homepage, I have a link to a video of my muffler, and the sound .....

 

Yeah I heard the sound from your exhaust, Kloogy...sounded great, especially for the price! You said before that your Powertech is the same as the Magnaflow. Is it actually the same can or just that it sounds similar, etc...?

 

Its not the same, but they sound similar, they are both free flowing mufflers, and are both good quality Stainless Steel..

 

Have you actually heard the Magnaflow before, or are u just assuming about the sound?

**Also, does anybody out there have a soundclip of a FLOWMASTER muffler? I was hoping for some opinions of people who have actually heard one of them before...what series, etc... They sound awesome on V8's, but on V6's?

 

They sound awesome on V6's too . . . as long as you don't mind having a V6 that sounds like a V8, that is.

 

I dont see the problem here? id rather have mine sound like that

 

Yup...it sounds like removing the resonator is the way to go. I just want a little more authority in the sound the car makes... not a loud muscle car. And definitely not a buzzing ricer.

Now if I can find a shop that will cut out the resonator and weld in some stainless pipe for a good price.

I'm not sure how much SS pipe costs. But if your replaced your resonator with aluminized pipe, it shouldn't run you more than $25.00 to $30.00.
