Anyone have just mufflers and not an entire exhaust system?

**nikeblades** · 05-24-2008 05:07 PM

Anyone put on just after-market mufflers with stock pipes...etc.? seems like everyone is investing in full exhaust systems. If you do just have mufflers, what recommendations do you have? what brand to get, size of the muffler with or without the resonator?
Thanks

i dont have entire exhaust system i just took out the resenator and put in a y pipe and that it. sounds good not 2 loud or quiet and give more air pressure so its a bit faster

is an exhaust system from a brand name company really just a pre-put-together-type-custom-exhaust ? like pipes + different res + different muffler + whatever else ?

u wont get much hp if u just change the mufflers. to get full potential u need to change the whole exhuast system.

i never heard of much gains from a full exhaust anyway. now a test pipe is another story....

I just threw on a full exhaust and I actually feel like I lost some low end HP, but I do notice a few PSI gain at the top. Before the exhaust, I would see a spike of 16, maybe 17 PSI and now I can definitely see 19 PSI on the boost gauge with the full exhaust installed.
