Muffler with gutted cat

96 2.7. Got a flowmaster 40 series on it now. Want to quite it down a lil more. What muffler would help?

 

50 or 70 series or the stock one which soundslike a quad once the cat is gone.

 

turbo style muffler maybe????

 

I'm running the 40 series with a straight 2.5 inch piping no cat, I'm thinking about adding a resonator which would quiet it down abit

 

Anybody know the general fine/punishment for no cat? I'm just curious
Sorry not tryin to thread jack here

 

Nope idk and don't wanna find out ha but it sucks hopefully I don't get checked next month hen I get my inspection done:/ my headers are carb legal either...Ridin dirtay haha

 

might be going to the summit racing store tomorrow. might ask them

 

Dynamax Super Turbo is not as agressive

 

but it was stopped up. feels like i gained power really.

 

If it was stopped up, Im sure you did gain

Besides, it`s yours, do what you wish to it

 

well got a turbo style muffler. walker brand from summit. just what i was looking for. got it clamped on right now, got to get it welded

 

Cut my cat out and gained power, it was not totally stopped up but I'm not really buying into the whole power loss in the low end dealio.

this may help

 

I'm not basing my opinion on sound but an increase in torque, I understand the fundamentals of backpressure and exhaust scavenging, however I believe that the exhaust and muffler provide plenty of both. If anything it would be more affected by the OBD II due to the downstream O2 sensor, I did not experience any power loss issue although I expected to. Sometimes real world facts are different than theoretical opinions.
