Like Travis said, but also the oval type (called "turbos") are a lot quieter than the straight through round type.

aaron so you think the same dimensions but oval would be decent? would I still get a good sound from them?

I think the turbos sound the best, but I'm not one who likes it loud. I'm keeping stock as long as I can get away with it.

Here in NC you never really "have" to replace your exhaust, everything rusts from the top down!

But I am going to get these for my Black '95! cheers

Thanks for the website, I've been looking for them for a while and couldn't find them.

stay away from flowmasters. They are NOT the masters of flow. They are counted among the worse flowing mufflers out there.

Quote :

inside so its more RESTRICTIVE the Round ones A>K>A> Glass
packs are ----- straight through

This is not necessarily true. An oval case muffler will silence more than a small, round case muffler as they have more sound deadening material. The Z shape he is referring to is in turbo-style mufflers (turbo does not refer to an oval case), like dynomax superturbos. A round muffler is not necessarily a glasspack (cherrybombs are glasspacks).

Oval case mufflers with a straight through design have... a straight through design. Dynomax ultraflos and their cheaper (dollar-wise) copies the hooker maximum flows are more of a sound deadner than a true muffler. It's a perforated tube with insulation around it.

maximum flow
FAQ: Mufflers? - Page 2 Maximum%20flow%20graphic
aerochamber: slightly quieter, flows slightly less (albeit more than enough for our cars)
FAQ: Mufflers? - Page 2 MediumAeroChamber

so before spending 80$ per muffler on a less than optimal muffler, please take a few minutes to check out your other options (ebay often has some good deals. I've seen hooker maxflows at 29.99 ea). When dealing with modern mufflers in the performance range our cars have (not all out race cars) it's generally a question your taste for sound and material (stainless or aluminized). You can't go wrong, unless you get flowmaster. I would seriously buy a set of $14.75 summit turbos before flowmasters.

Notice how the 2.25in dynomax OUTFLOWS the 4in flowmaster! They basicaclly get their signature sound by bottling up the exhaust with their chambered design.

check outthis muffler comparo: http://www.exhaustsoundclips.com/cfm.pdf
I was having trouble with the .pdf so here it is.

Dynomax UltraFlow..........................................................1133
Edelbrock Victor 5537......................................................1400
Borla XR-1 40450.............................................................1400
Borla XR-1 40741.............................................................1450
Dynomax UltraFlow SS 17296, 17268..............................2200
Dynomax Race Magnum Welded 17220, 17224...............2200
Dynomax Race Magnum Welded 17225...........................2600

The formula for required exhaust flow is: horsepower times 2.2.
So
if your car makes 400 hp, you will need a total of 880 cfm muffler
capacity for an unrestrictive exhaust system. So for dual exhaust, you
would need mufflers that flow 440 cfm.
For reference, a 2.5 inch diameter pipe flows ~500 cfm. Adding non-mandrel bends will lessen that amount

Results may vary from engine to engine and setup to setup, but is is a comparison using different mufflers

This test was performed by 5.0
Mustang & Super Fords Magazine, December 2002 issue (page 55) on a
'90 Mustang LX coupe with 370hp and 11 second potential. 66 pulls were
made for this comparison:
The results in HP order:

1.Flowtech Warlock (open) 374.2 hp/ 333.1 tq
2.Bassani Real Street 373.7 hp/ 333.8 tq
3.Hooker Maxflow 373.5 hp/ 333 tq
4.Borla XS 373.3 hp/ 332.6 tq
5.Magnaflow 372.8 / 332.5 tq
6.MAC 372.3 hp / 331.5 tq
7.Flowtech Afterburner 372.3 hp/ 330.1 tq
8.Hooker Aerochamber 372.1 hp/ 330.4 tq
9.Bassani 372 hp/ 333.5 tq
10.Spintech 371.6 hp/ 332.2 tq
11.Edelbrock Performer RPM 370.9 hp / 331.3 tq
12.Borla XR1 370 hp/ 334 tq
13.Flowtech Terminator 369.5 hp / 331.3 tq
14.Dynomax Ultra Flo 369.4 / 333.2 tq
15.Flowmaster 369.4 hp / 331.8 tq
16.Flowtech Warlock 366.3 hp / 325.3 tq
17.No muffs 365.2 hp / 330.1 tq


Sound Off in Quietest to Loudest (Decibels):
1.Borla XS, 80db at idle, 90db at 2,000 rpm, 110db at WOT.
2.Hooker Maxflow, 80db at idle, 90db at 2,000 rpm, 120db at WOT.
3.Magnaflow, 82db at idle, 91 at 2,000 rpm, 114db at WOT.
4.Flowmaster, 82db at idle, 93 at 2,000 rpm, 115db at WOT.
5.Flowtech Warlock, 83db at idle, 92 at 2,000 rpm, 112db at WOT.
6.Dynomax UltraFlo, 83db at idle, 94 at 2,000 rpm, 113db at WOT.
7.Borla XR1, 83db at idle, 96db at 2,000 rpm, 118db at WOT.
8.Bassani Street, 83db at idle, 96db at 2,000 rpm, 120db at WOT.
9.Edelbrock RPM, 84db at idle, 93db at 2,000 rpm, 118db at WOT.
10.Bassani Real Street, 84db at idle, 96db at 2,000 rpm, MAX. (120+db).
11.Flowtech Afterburner, 86db at idle, 94db at 2,000 rpm, 115db at WOT.
12.Flowtech Terminator, 86db at idle, 94db at 2,000 rpm, 119db at WOT.
13.Hooker Aerochamber, 87db at idle, 94db at 2,000 rpm, 114db at WOT.
14.SpinTech, 87db at idle, 97db at 2,000 rpm, 116db at WOT.
15.MAC, 87db at idle, 98db at 2,000 rpm, 119db at WOT.
16.No Muffler, 91db at idle, 103db at 2,000 rpm, MAX. (120+db).

-------------------------------

Note that the Maxflow is the quietest at idle & 2000 rpm but the loudest at wot and is among the best flowing in the test.
This was in 2002 though. Maybe some muffler designs have changed since then. All I can say is I love the sound of the max flows on my turbo regal.

Take this last comparo FWIW. It is from the camaroz28forum but I could not find references. All the numbers seem artificially low (the test was done at 15" wc, so maybe that's why).

Wow, thanks Jason. Lots of good info there. I never took the time to learn about mufflers, so this comes as a big help!

jason did some homework :> I didn't order them last night just because I wanted to take a look at my exhaust today, and take some measurements. I was thinking about going offset in, just how the oem muffler is, then run like 2.5 in. pipe from the muffler with a tip on the end.. but looking at everything you just posted, i'd rather go for the cheaper hooker max flows..

those are the ones I'd go for if I were in Florida where rust isn't an issue. Personally, I will be installing a set of magnaflows on the riviera because they were free. They are offset/offset so I'll have to jury-rig them smile

yes, if the pipe at the end isn't straight, buy rather curved like the stock setup. Of course that is if you want the tailpipes to come out straight in the back,

if you bought 2x 3" mufflers, it will definately be loud a wot ! A single 3" maxflow has more flow potential than most of us will ever need.

please make a sound clip after install!

I certainly hope you have a 3"dp and stay 3" all the way to the split to take advantage of the size of the mufflers. Expect your powerband to shift towards the upper RPMs.

it may be cheaper for you to buy a 75$ 3"dp from clubgp than squandering money on two 2.25 to 3" reducers and a Y junction.
