My girlfriend has an 05 saleen 3v with the exhaust rattle. I plugged the vacuum to keep the valve open, but when I do that it's too loud for her, she has semi-sensitive ears. The other problem is the occasional low frequency drone which I personally could live with, but even I must admit it is worse than my Camaro with headers, 3 inch catback, and straight though mufflers (have a pypes race pro now). She lives with it now because she has to but I'd like to fix the problem for her. But, she does like the sound it makes, just not the drone and especially not the rattle. I think I heard that the 05 mufflers where actually made by borla or magnaflow.
So, I am looking for a pair of single in/single out mufflers that will bypass the valves completely so that it only come out the center that are not too loud and have minimal drone (take note that I do not expect there to be a miracle muffler that will have zero drone, just looking for less drone).
I've considered flowtech from sound clips I've heard and also pypes because it gave me exactly what I was looking for in quieting down my ride just right, almost no drone, but will it work for this? I am hesitant to think so because my pypes race pro with no tailpipes (coming straight out of the muffler was even louder than my straight through setup. Not until after the tailpipes were on did it do the trick. The saleen has mufflers closer to the rear of the vehicle and much less tailpipe length, or so it would seem, whereas my camaro has a longer tailpipe length due to the muffler being right behind the rear diff. So it's between pypes race pro, pypes street pro and maganflow, online sound clips can be deceptive, so I'm looking for personal input. I'm not sure if I can use stock GT mufflers I think I have to use same side offside inlet and outlet mufflers.
p.s. the car is a stock 05 saleen 3v, no mods.
