95420, Debating which muffler for custom 3" cat-back ???
Posted by bluefire, Jun-01-06 05:10 AM
I have a 96 Avenger 420a....built, custom turbo setup with a T3/T4(no, it's not a STARR )

About to change exhaust system to the below stated stuff.
2.5" DP, Hi-flow cat, 3" cat back.
Can't decide between a Magnaflow muffler or a flowtech Warlock muffler.
I know people with the Magnaflow, and they say it sounds great.
However, this Warlock muffler has a cap that can be taken off at the track, allowing for a completely straight threw muffler.
Unsure if any of you have used or heard of these before.
they can both be found on Summit's website.

Both would be 3" in and out.
both where suggested on ASEC...along with Thermal, Apexi N1, and a few others. these 2 mentioned above are the cheaper of lot, and im' sure would work ok.
i know some of you here have been boosted a long time...so it's a good referance point for things of this nature IMO

Thanks for any help you can give.

Magnaflow is a good replacement, Dynomax is is better.

I've basically got a 3" cat back setup using the Magnaflow polished, stainless 3" straight through muffler(oval shaped). It sounds really good..Not too loud, not too quiet, and not raspy at all.

3" catless with 2 Magnaflow bullet resonators and a megan racing n1. No rasp, deep tone. Cost all of about 200$ including the mandril bent dp pieces.
