Need to start looking for a muffler for my 2.7 conv. Whats being used? I have no problem with fabing the valence for dual exhaust. Thoughts on performance, noise, ect.

FWIW I have an early M&K "R" (wide-spaced 2-out) and I don't find that it drones per se but it is really too loud to be reasonable for a street car and doesn't sound quite like a typical six. It does sound and look really good though and my car runs well with it. One pipe can be capped-off to quiet it some.
I tried a Triad briefly and just did not like the sound or looks on my car nor was my engine happy with it. It makes peak power at 7500 and really needs to breathe. What's on there now is a stainless Dansk 2-in/1-out sport muffler, which sounds fantastic with a classic 911 sound but throatier, and the car runs well. Not easy to find or cheap though. I lucked out and found one around 1/2 normal retail. Lately I got another Dansk which is a stainless R/RSR type (wide 2-out) which I think has the same/similar main sausage as my 1-out. I haven't tried it yet but it looks killer and I'm hoping is not too brutally loud. I will definitely report back and get a video when that's on that car. |
