Talked to a local muffler guy with good local reviews about doing a custom exhaust for my car. He has a mandrel bender and can fab the whole thing from scratch. Probably going to get him to make me something up in the next week or two.Going to do 2.5" throughout, aluminized for cost, all mandrel bent.He told me he can do pretty much whatever I want for mufflers and resonators, I need to decide what to do. He suggested either a single resonator and muffler, or doing two mufflers back to back. He suggested that I do two Borla mufflers, one before and after the rear beam. Also can do Magnaflow or Flowmaster.Any recommendations on this? I have heard of all three brands, not sure what to differentiate them. Of course sound is always subjective too. I'd like it not to drone or be too obnoxious as I am daily driving this thing and live in a townhouse.
The magnaflow mufflers I've used have been 409 stainless with a welded case. Could it be there is more than one "class" of magnaflow? They run about $100 so I wouldn't call it cheap...
Odd, I've never seen a crimped or cracked one. Could it be something with a similar name like Magnafrow?Id chose Flowmaster if they hang low and you will bounce the car off them.
Sorry to threadjack, but wouldn't a GTI rear muffler be enough? That'd look sweet in my eyes
Eh... not like that, I'm talking in means of the sound.
