Different (unique) Muffler ideas

[TurboFox]

I need a 3" offset inlet/outlet for the newest addition to my driveway.

Looking for ideas on a few unconventional muffers. I wanted to try something different than the usual flowmaster,borla, magnaflow etc stuff.

Does anyone know of any? Its for an LS.

Something like:
Sweet Thunders
Spintech
Dynomax VT (anyone use this)
Moroso Spiralflow (used this before)

etc etc.

Thanks

I need a pic of what you bought before I can voice my opinion :)

Dynomax VT sound terrible on you tube...

I'm might try some sort of import twin muffler on the Datsun, the Spintech sound so good on a LS

On Saturday I will spill the beans. You will like it.

Its so tough to tell anything from youtube

go with the Outlaws man...if you don't mind it being noisy, they don't sound like your conventional flows, same with 10 series 1 chambers and are easy to obtain in 3" configs

Spintech is pretty wide spread, but they do sound really good with the right set up IMO, that's what was used for Eleanor in the remake of "Gone in 60 Seconds"

Never hear of sweet thunder but they sounds good here

Its a DD and I drive by a police station every day on the way to work so that is a constraint. It can't be tooo loud unfortunately

[RedSN]

Warlock!
because even the name sounds cool!

I assumed that cause you need 3" exhaust that this thing must have Mega HP...so figured noise wasn't an issue LOL


SLP on a an otherwise stock LT1 isn't too loud so it would basically be the same on an LS1 unless of course like mentioned it has gobs of HP


LT1 SLP

flowmaster 10's sound nothing like what you think they do.. i like em

[Ghost Rider]

Oops just realized why you need 3", I forgot that they are 3" stock from the factory...makes sense now

SLP also comes in a 3" single resonator...

[TurboFox]

It does have gobs of hp and high compression though. Enough to make it pretty loud with the stock catback right now.

I'll listen to the soundclips when I get home. Thanks for all the suggestions so far

stock, mod your fun car not the daily!

it's too addictive...I said I'd never mod the Zam either just a DD...week later it had new rims and exhaust ordered LMAO...

[TurboFox]

I still have my cruze. The new vehicle is just my summer DD.

Once I post pics you will understand the rationale

[RedSN]

loud dd = fail

like riding a bike or sled with a pipe; if it sounds ok for 5 minutes that's one thing; but after a few minutes it can drive ya crazy. Cant understand all the numbnuts out there with the open pipes on Harleys or the ultra loud pickup trucks. What - they are suddenly fast?

If you run x pipe it will quiet it down somewhat; 3" will be deeper than usual. Is it turbo'd? That will make it way quieter right away.

^^^I don't understand this at all...one of the reasons I love driving the trans am is the sound of it same with the Stang...I never seem to get tired of it...maybe I'm just weird lol

[Ghost Rider]

[svo1990mustang]

I bought a car once that the previous owner, had made his own mufflers for it. So I say got the DIY route and make your own!

I ran a flowmaster 40 series w/ resonator delete on my Jeep for a while. Unbelievable drone at highway cruising speeds. The resonator went back on after a couple of months.. good thing I saved it.

Now the foxbody.. loud! I want it louder!
