Hey guysm looking for opinions on the quietest muffler for a street strip car.

What's the matter with you?

 

I like being able to hear myself think when I'm working on it. Lol. It sounds a lot faster than it is with open headers

Mine too!! My 77 Nova with the LS motor sounds like a 10 second car with open headers, so I put some generic muffler shop turbo mufflers on the car that I had layig around my shop. They dump about 2 feet before the rear axle, it's really quiet, but sounds awesome when you put your foot in it. No cop will ever bother me being that quiet. I like quiet cars more and more all the time, open headers were awesome when I was in high school, but now I actually like to BS with the person riding shotgun when cruising the car. I guess I'm just getting old!!

I'm also interested... BBC is the only difference.

 

Here is a link to some quiet mufflers for you.

Thanks Josh..

They didn't accept my bid!!!!

 

I thought about running bullets off the headers, then back to 3.5 inch spintechs (I like how they sound) not sure if the bullets will help at all though. I'm just done with ridiculously loud cars. I've seen flying cars that were really quiet before, that's what I'm going for now

hooker maxflow, dynmax ultraflow,

 

Try a search. This topic has been beaten to death on YB. Oh.....and stay away from any chambered muffler if your looking for performance. I would stick with a magnaflow.

 

What's your opinion on the magnaflow 14619? 6in round, 14in long, 3in in/out, I know they can't be as good as the 6in long race muffler but I hear their the same design, Not sure though. Found 2 new one's for $125. Are they better than the Flowmaster delta force race muffler(9430419) than im using now?

 

Any aftermarket muffler you get, is going to drone.. Been there done that..

If you want quiet here is what I did.. I ran a Dr. Gas X-pipe with 2 straight thru glass packs in place of the cats.. And the STOCK cat-back..

The car was quieter than when stock.. And with only the slight whine of my Kenne-Bell screw supercharger.. It almost sounded like an electric car..

BTW.. Like that the car made 486 ft lbs of tq at only 2600 rpms.. And 400 rwhp at 5200 rpms (stock cam).. With 3.55 gears and a 2.95 first gear T5.. It ran 11.6's at 120 on BFG 16 inch drag radials..

The only problem with that setup was.. With that much lowend torque.. And a quiet exhaust that doesn't attract attention.. It makes you frequently step into the blower, and you fuel milage will suffer ..

 

After trying all sorts of mufflers for the street, what I found works best is using dynomax bullets after the headers and an oval as far back as possible. For the ovals, I used 3" hogged out dynomax turbos. The car was extremely quiet and still ran deep into the 9's. I think spintechs would be a better choice for the ovals. The bullets seem to knock out the high tones while the ovals knock out the low tones

 

ive found out that dyno max super turbos are the quietest around. i dislike loud cars that are driven on the street, so much that i write tickets to the owners for loud mufflers. the 3 inch inside and out are the ones. they are mush larger than application specific though. r. booker mdpd

Just curious, do you extend the same courtesy to those that prefer their Harley with no mufflers at all? Certainly a hell of a lot louder, and way more annoying and obnoxious, than a car with loud mufflers.

 

I thought abou tquiet exhaust and gave up.. 3 1/2 bullits with an x pipe dumped at the rear end... If they don't get me for exhaust they will for the chute... It is always something..

Lucky me th emotor is out now and it is on trailer duty... I like magnaflows bettdr than anything for a more mello exhaust.

 

Hooker Maxflows are what I picked. Very quiet at idle and part throttle and loud as hell WFO. I believe the Dynomax Ultraflows and about the same.

 

DynoMax Ultra flow round mufflers. There is a guy running the 6.0 index class in an orange Mustang with these and it is the quietest car in the class, can't even hear him over the other cars. As for the cop, that's some bullshit man. It's one thing if a guy is out showing his ass late at night or if he is continuously riding up and down the same street in the same neighborhood bothering everyone there. If you're out riding in your car, how long does anyone actually hear it as you ride by? Five seconds? 10 seconds? Wow, such a bother.

 

Noise that escapes the car is wasted energy, not much different than a trail of black smoke.

 

So your saying if top fuelers was to put mufflers on they would go much faster? Or maybe prostock cars should try it also. I am pretty sure noise is a result of spent energy and black smoke is a result of unburnt fuel.

 

Best muffler hands down that will actually make hp is a turbo as in 114mm turbo

 

I have 3.5 Pypes Race Pro on mine there are pretty quiet and car runs 9.4s at 140+mph with them. I haven't tried running without them but I really dont think they are costing me much if anything. Here is video of the car.

Why are there so many dumb fucks that just don't get it? Loud street cars only damage the future of motorsports. Inbred mullethead cocksuckers who don’t care about anyone but themselves and their asshole mullethead friends who think they are impressed. If you don’t get it, grow up, then you’ll get it.

 

I was a hardcore Flowmaster guy for a long long time until i was talked into Borlas. Only muffler i will use now.

 

Dynomax Ultraflow welded mufflers. It can't get much quieter than them. I have them on my car now and you can hear the solid roller valvetrain noise over the exhaust wih a 14-1 454sbf

 

Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers are quiet and still work on high horsepower cars.

Spangenberg's 1966 Impala with a 540 BBC w/400 hp single shot fogger went 8.70's through the
mufflers at 4,000 pounds and stock suspension & 10" tires

How about these two yahoo's for neighbors.

Has anyone ran an effective quiet 2 into 1 system?

 

I used two Magnaflow turbo mufflers and 2 bulllets at the back. Definately lost some power but, the car was waay too loud with the 4" bullets and the back of the door exit. I swear you could see the exhaust valves with the small exhaust.
