Has anyone used a "Turbo" style muffler

[05stroker]

Well like it says . Has anyone used an old tubo style muffler in a mid pipe configuration with these cars and maybe even turned it down just after the rear axle like "back in the day" ?

i'm interested on this also. i was planning on putting cherry bomb glass pack in a mid pipe configuration but i haven't heard any s197 with that set up.

It is great,your opinion is very novelty thanks very much guy!.

Not sure where you would put it. The Pypes mid muffler uses glasspack style because there is not enough room for a regular design muffler. They fit with about 1/2 inch clearance around the fuel tank... and look good too

No I was thinking that this next year I miight trade the fac fuel tank for a fuel cell in the trunk then mount some reg old turbo mufflers there. I guees they could be welded in where my axle backs sit now.

i believe thats a bot... look at the sig... i looked at the other few posts and they all are about the same...


anyways...


I see what you're saying about the exhaust... I was looking into doing something like what I posted since I won't be doing a fuel cell... Mine will stay strictly a street car so a fuel cell isn't an option... I have been wondering how some long glass packs under the driveshaft would sound with muffler deletes... I just don't wanna be the test dummy and waste the money ya know... lol

I have cherry bombs as a mid muffler with no tailpipes. Here is a clip. This is also with an O/R X pipe

i went search for some online but i couldn't decide on how long the glasspack should be. i'm thinking 18 inches long with 2.5 inlet and 2.5 outlet.

this will sound bad but i would want to get the cheapest way possible for a mid pipe set up.

Definitely 2.5 in and out. I think mine are 22 or 24 long. I had to trim the X-pipe to get them to fit under the car.

Yes, a lot louder in person. I am surprised at how quiet it is in the cabin though.

lol, I had a blast doing that. About 30 yards behind the car was a street that was full of cars cruising. They had to shut down the street while I was doing that because people couldn't see the car in front of them. lol

i heard that our cabin is made like a sound booth hehehe. this might sound weird but if you had 22-24 glasspack and the car was still loud, DANG!! i guess i was aiming for the 350z sound like a rumble but sounds straight when floored. with glass packs does it sound louder than flowmasters?

Whilst I was changing things all the time last year, I had such a setup - just put resonators and turndowns off an OR H-pipe...

Works just dandy - sounds wonderful... so nice to not have to bang around the !@#$ing mufflers when messing around with the rear every weekend...

Track rules say that it needs to exit past the doors for most...

No need to go over the axle or remove the fuel tank...

Just need something to support the mufflers and pipe you have back there - I just bolted it to one of those various things sticking out back there with exhaust hanger material to dissipate the heat - sorry don't have any pics...

It wasn't the quietest thing in the world - though you could put quieter resonators/mufflers on there...

The only flowmasters I have to compare it to was my 2001 Dakota. Completely different setup and it is a lot louder than the Dakota.
