Muffler suggestion? (searched)

Soundclips won't tell you much of anything; not only is the sound quality usually terrible, they won't tell you a thing about volume, quality of the sound, or those booming resonances that can occur.

The best you're gonna be able to do is keep asking for opinions and listening to others' cars live. Also, different set ups (heads, cams, exhaust configuration, shorties vs. long tubes, xpipe vs. h pipe, diameter, etc.) make a difference in both volume and quality of the sound. So it's not just the muffler that impacts sound - be careful when trying to compare to someone else's car. Said another way, when you hear that Stang with "X" brand mufflers whose sound you really like - simply putting that brand on yours won't guarantee that yours will sound like that one.

I'd recommend the Dynomax Super Turbos if you want to quiet it down. They're about the only one out there that's sure to tone it down a bit. Whether it will allow you to hear the cam at idle the way you want, or if it's loud enough will only be discovered when you put them on and see.

When it comes to exhaust systems, at some point you have to simply put them on and see what happens. I've had FlowMaster, Bassani, Magnaflow and SpinTech on mine - all too loud for me, or with funky resonances at certain rpm. I'm about to put on some stock take-off mufflers from a C5 Corvette. I think that will finally quiet it down enough for my delicate ears.

I have Dynomax Super Turbos on my car and I also have a couple of short videos for sound but I don't have a place that will host them to show you.

Your setup will be louder than mine due to the cam and heads and such.
The Spintechs are louder than the flowmasters.

Magnaflows sound really nice. Not too loud unless at WOT. If you want quiet, stay away from the magnapacks. Just get the regular magnaflows.

"The Spintechs are louder than the flowmasters. "

This is an example of the kinds of generalizations that are often made in an attempt to be helpful, that are simply inaccurate at best, misleading at worst. Both manufacturers make several different mufflers at different volume levels. The Flowmaster on mine was MUCH louder than the SpinTech set up I went with. As with many other bits of our cars - it's usually not possible to generalize. About the only constant I've seen/heard about is that long tubes will significantly reduce the booming resonance that occurs in the 1800-2100 rpm range with these engines.

Yeah I guess that was a pretty general statement.

What I meant to say was they will probably be louder than Super Turbo's.

Corrected.

Thanks Mike.

And to Ole Whitey's point about Magnaflows - I went with that based on posts like this only to find on mine (single 3" system) when I replaced a tiny SpinTech resonator (in front of my SpinTech muffler) with a 4"X9"X18"L standard Magnaflow that it was louder than with the tiny SpinTech resonator. Go figure.

88 - you're doing the right thing. Whether he's being reasonable or not, having a long running fued with a neighbor over noise is a no-win proposition. It'll ultimately reduce your enjoyment of the car. Quiet it down - you'll be glad you did. It's my personal opinion that you won't find anything in SpinTech's catalog that's gonna be significantly quiet than the Flows. It's gonna take more muffler than that.

Do you have cats on the car? Sounds odd, but they do a good job at reducing volume - and the highflow units available offer virtually no flow restriction. You might consider putting a pair of high flow 3-way cats on it. That might do the trick without messing with the Flows.

Buddy, you have Flowmasters which are pretty much top of the line BBK being the best in my opinion. Unless you're getting tired of the drone sound coming from the back while driving on the highway, I wouldn't even take into consideration whatever that guy said to you about it being to loud. Bye the way, what exactly did he say???????????????

My self, I have a high degree cam with MAC shortie headers going through an "unknown brand" of h-pipe and cats, out the back into a MAC catback system. Needless to say, mine are loud also! I live in an apartment building. My girlfriend lives in the one next door and her apartment (8th floor) is right over the under ground garage door I drive out of. She can hear me leaving and up to 5 city blocks after that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's pretty damn loud! No wonder people look at me all the time.

The best is when I'm waiting for a light under a huge highway overpass by my place. The resounance is fantastic.

To date I've run Mac Flow paths, Flowmasters 3 chambers, summit turbos, and dynomax turbos on a similiar system 1 5/8" shorties, 2 1/2" OR H and 2 1/2" cat back. The two turbo mufflers were the quietest by quite abit from the others but I have been looking into something else and have heard that Hooker Maxflows are very quiet at idle, don't drone and sound good at WOT. As was mentioned cam events and compression play a huge part in sound so my car may be different than yours but to be honest your cam is probably going to cause sound to be lower than mine. Cam that large is not going to have the cranking compression I had. Try to seek out a sound clip of the Maxflows...plus there only @$60/each
