Price looks good, IMO this seems like the cheapy of what they sell in terms of sound quality and performance. I may be totally wrong and this may be just as good a muffler as any they sell so let me here your opinions about this muffler!

 

I prefer Allied, they flow every bit of what Magnaflow does, been around for 40+ years, have a deep tone, nice low rumble on acel/decel and about 1/2 the price and available at just ablut any muffler shop.

 

That is an amazing sounding muffler. AKA "magnapack". It has an incredible reputation on this forum. Depending on how much noise you want, I would be strongly considering this muffler.

 

Thanks for info. By the look its one of those "strait through" mufflers, or whatever their called. Im looking for a deep but smooth exhuast overall, but i want a muffler that will still help with performance as much as sound. Ive seen alot of posts were people are just looking for sound and dont even mention performance... so seeing as i want both.. good choice?

I found one on ebay for like $69 which is cheap, only problem is i would like to have cat-back duals... so that would mean i would have to get one of the "oval" mufflers with duel exits (unless i wanted to do two of these mufflers). Any suggestions on those? i know there are a million and a half brands/types of mufflers soooo im pretty much lost on choosing.

 

^ All I can say is this. YOUTUBE. Search for some of these "straight threw" mufflers, and you will agree they sound better/deeper than anything else on the market.

My Borla mufflers are straight threw. Watch my videos.

 

A muffler will barely do anything, in terms of gaining performance. If your doing a catback you won't gain much if anything, only changing the pipe size changes the powerband. Build your exhaust on sound. If your doing like high flows with true duals, lt headers than I would get a straight through muff. The only performance things from an exhaust will come from true duals w/ tunes headers with tune combo of both etc.

 

Thanks for all the info guys

 

10416 FTW. Love mine.

 

Im probably going to get this muffler, but with dual outlets, 2.5". Also, is the stock pipes 2.5"? Im trying to figure out what size inlet i should have on the muffler.

 

Your existing is 2.5". If I was intent on not going true duals but have dual outlets (i.e. SIDO type) I would cut off the factory Y pipe and weld in a 2~2.5" in to 3" out. Then I would run a 3" midpipe back to a 3" Magnapack and then if you want dual outlets, go out to a Y-pipe that goes from 3" in to 2~2.5" out.

Magnapack #14419

 

^ What he said!

 

Would it really be cheaper to do it that way? i could just buy a magnaflow 13761, which has dual outlets, instead of running another Y pipe out of the single outlet of the 14419?

but if it was cheaper to do it like that instead of spending the extra money on a muffler with dual outlets ill probably do it that way lol. and why go with 2.5" to 3" muffler back to 2.5" pipes?

 

The 13761 is a 2.5" in/out and is a 6" round body. I don't think you want that. A 3" mid-pipe would work best IMHO. The 14419 is a 3" in/out 4" round body, and it is the muffler of choice for most guys looking for a si/do setup.

 

And why is that the prefered choice for most people? sound? cost?

the 14419 is a cheaper muffler, which is good, but how much more would it cost to get another Y pipe off that muffler? The shop quoted me 140 for dual 2.5" pipes and install of the muffler, but im not sure how much it would be to do it the way we are takling about.
