muffler wars

im inthe market for an exhaust and wanted 2 kno wut kinda mufflers u guys have and how you describe the sound?

, right now im lookin at a magnaflow stainless with a 4" slant cut round tip,

the sound im looking for is one that isnt too loud and obviously not the fart
can, i want a deep low hum at normal speeds but a performance growl when i slam it

suggestions and comments appreciated

nissan uses a straight through exhaust design. There are really no farty nissans now is there?

i duno where u live but theres plenty of apc'd out sentras around here that sound like they just ate a bowl of beans, regardless i cant take the exhaust off a 350z or the sort and slap it on my rolla, wut i wanted 2 kno wus what muffler is gona give me that sort of effect

..... SR20's always sound like crap. Of course a 350z sounds good it has a v6 ... lol

wut muffler r u runnin and how does it sound?

hold on let me get some samples off a 240sx. Magnaflow has a 350z example. BTW i don't have exhaust on my car its just stock right now.

here is the usual sound of the ka24

and magnaflow has the sample on their website. I can't find any old Z samples also magnaflow has a r34 GTR sample too

actually i prefer the sound of a cammed 4ag with any aftermarket exhaust over all sr20's i've heard.....

my ae92 has a 40 series flowmaster, resonator, high flow cat, and 4-2-1 header.... sounds good

the aw11 has some shitty muffler..... less than a foot of exhaust piping and it exits kinda at the side..... sounds like crap, but it pushes an amazing amount of exhaust (enough that my friend trying to keep up felt it through his open window)... sounds decent when i'm on it, but WAAAAAY over the legal limit

if u want a quiet yet it sounds good than get a REMUS muffler...

My TRD muffler is perfect. It's has a nice low almost non existent grumble until ya give it some of the right foot love and it sounds awesome Even better is that it came with the cert that says it is legal

trd=$$$$ which i unfortunately dont have very much of im trying to keep it in the 200-220 range for the muffler pipes and installation of a cat back, is there anything comparable that i might be able to afford

Custom make everything. If you know someone that works at a muffler shop, they can do almost anything for your exhaust. Best of all, it's affordable.

i already decided on custom piping, the situ- is the muffler that goes on the end of em, while trd wud kill 2 birds wit 1 stone itll exceed my budget, so i wana find a muffler thats gonna deliver and be affordable, and as i said earlier i was lookin at a magnaflow stainless mufflers(info on top), ne1 have feedback on these? its like 80 bucks

thermal r&d

love mine...low rumble, no raspiness.

get a flowmaster 40 series.

i got an hks hi power muffler on mine . and it has a 2 1/4 custom pipe. the hks is good. never been pulled over with it

How about the exhaust system from magnaflow shown on ptuning website? You got complete system from header to muffler, 2''¼, with a high flow resonator. Never heard how it sounds though... The small tips gives a nice look and it's bolt on. put a ELP or JP header and you'Re in business.

DC sports is also currently making it's own for our 2003+ rolla.

I forgot to ask, do you have a 9thgen?

nop not 9th' its a 00' ve with vvti

Thermal

fenix, wut muffler do u hav and how much did it cost u

Thermal R&D - as i stated above - and i bought mine off another guy for $200.

i kno that i wanted 2 kno the exact model name of that muffler, tip size etc and 200 bucks dayyum!

how bout...this? it has a big tip.

hehe never said i preferred a big tip

it has a "performance growl" to it. and plus, its only $4-5 dollars at wal-mart. man, i say take advantage to this offer.

the color actually matches my car lol

THAT i couldn't tell you...talk to toyrolla about it, he's got the same one.

She has a thermal. I think i paid $200 for it. It's part of the full cat-back system they offer.

no...i don't have a full catback. remember, my car had 2 1/4" stainless from the dealership(YAY for leased vehicles...lol).


i still don't know the part number.

I know. I said it was part of the cat-back system they offered. I guess I can see where that sounded sorta vague.
