what mufflers for our 4.6? *URGENT*

[02bluegtstang]

which one gives the most power??? (if any extra hp)

-flowmaster?
-Magnaflow?
-Other (something I can get at a muffler shop)

Let me know ASAP thanx

Dynomax Ultra Flow SS's are cool. Borla, Bassani, etc...though they might not have them at a muffler shop...

Magnaflow is my pick. Or Borla....borla is badass (see sig hehehe)

 

[SilverBullet00]

They are all pretty close. With mufflers I would honestly pick which one sounds best to you.

 

[02bluegtstang]

hahah borlas are $535 on ebay item #110026713579
i know theyre nice but expensive...

as far as power...is there a dyno test for borla and for flowmasters?

 

[BennyBlown2v]

Umm, it's not $535 for just a set of weld in mufflers... Are you looking for a whole catback or just mufflers like you said??

 

[Mustang5L5]

If yu want power you should look at a cat-back setup vs just welding in mufflers on the stock 2.25" pipe.

Later down the line when you want to do a mid pipe you'll regret not getting the cat-back

I know every little bit counts, but a catack is good for 2WHP max. A midpipe is way more important....

whats up with these newbi threads lately?


Cat back, the difference between Best to worst - power wise is something like 1 or 2 hp.
With weldin muffler, just pick one you like for sound.
I personally hate weldin idea, but i understand some people is tight on budget or whatever the case might be.

Well from what I understand Flowmaster's actually rob horsepower, but they sound so good it was worth it to me... I think magnaflows will give a horsepower increase but it will be so slight that you wont feel it.

Even if they do rob power i still they they sound the best. I only have a cat-back, shifter and 13" front brakes as performance mods...so it doesn't make a different to me

if your planning to mod mod mod, get some resonator types. like magnapacks, as straight through design and lighter compared to others.

magnapacks, borla stingers, or SLP loudmouths if you can handle the volume.

 

[Twista]

If you want performance than you should put flowmaster @ the end of your list lol. ;]

I switch from flowmaster to BORLA STINGERS, and I have to say that borla is by far better quality and sounds awesome,I love my stingray.

 

[Stang|ess]

psst, stingers .

 

[mineralgraygt]

i had magnaflow before sounded great but i just swapped out for mac. omg the sound so sick i love them by far mac sound so sick and you can get weld in mufflers for like 65 bucks a peace

 

[Dragstr05]

The difference in HP muffler to muffler is minimal. Even if my flows cost me 5hp over some other brand, I'd still take the flows because I love the sound. For a street car, you should be buying a muffler based on sound not on performance.

psst, stingers .

funny ha ha,O.K I'll fix it.........
