17208, cheapest muffler for turbo? Posted by charger71, Mar-08-02 07:06 AM
Hi guys,
Another question.. I'll probably have a local muffler shop dot he catback piping 2 1/2 for me.. but what about the muffler? I dont care that much about the loudness or looks, as long as flows as well as I need.. the biggest factor for me is fit and price.. the cheaper the better (price not quality).. any suggestions? Thanks guys!

Those cherry bomb glasspacks are awful cheap. I think I bought a 2.5 one for close to $30. It doesn't get much cheaper than that. Plus it's straight through, so there isn't any encumberances there at all to slow the flow.
However, the cheapest alternative is no muffler at all. ;-)

hey jason how loud is it? is it real loud so you can't drive through a subdivision without feeling guilty about the noise? i guess what i'm saying is i don't want to sound like some honduuuuuuuuh punk in my go-kart.

Well I got a 3 inch magna flow for 80 bux I think the stainless steel version is like 100 something. It's great deet toned muffler. ANother cheap good muffler is a dynomax. Any performance muffler will do if it's straight thru.

If you want a cheap muffler, but also something thats atleast half decent performance wise, I would suggest getting a used GS-T Muffler...
Look for one in the sales section.

Don't know Kirby. I actually use it as a resonator and not a muffler. But a lot of domestic guys will actually use it as a muffler. It's hella agressive soudning on their cars. It's gotta be loud though on ours.
