Muffler & Exhaust Trouble

Ben_Schwarz_09 · 09-18-2008, 05:34 PM

what would be the correct size of tubeing going into and out of muffler, i have the stock tubing on it and all i want to do is swap the stock muffler for a new muffler. some people have told me that it is 2.5 in&out and some have told me 2.25.

it would need to be the centered in/out let, am i correct?

and finally to increase HP/TQ along with MPGs, which would be better a Flowmaster Delta Flow 50, or a Magnaflow 5x8 Oval.

does anyone know which lenght for the Magnaflow would be the easiest to put it; if it is too short i have to add on pipe, if it is too long it will not be as loud.

magnaflow=better performance (wide open)

flowmaster= better sound (if u like baffleness)

which magnaflow would you suggest then?

u can either get the cat back which is more money, or u can go the cheaper route with just getting a universal magnaflow muffler welded on.

if u take to a muffler shop they'll know which one to use... i think theres a 14inch and 18 inch, maaaybe even a 22inch

The stock Y-pipe is 2.25".Your muffler & pipe is 2.5".

so if all i do is replace the muffler i would need one with a 2.5 in in/out let?

hey tacoskim,
how are you liking your K&N CAI, i bought one but have not put it on yet, so i keep it or return it and go with a AFE Pro-Dry S Air Filter?

Ben_Schwarz_09 · 09-18-2008, 06:34 PM

how are you guys liking the speedway blue color, is it too light for ya (I got mine in the same, but it is still being shipped to me, so i wouldn't know yet)
