Shake & Bake · 12-06-2015, 07:12 PM

I just got my car back from Nickey after blowing the stock motor. I made the right choice in forging the bottom-end, porting the heads, and adding some lope to the cam (mainly for sound, not performance). Well, it's a single turbo with 3" down pipe, no cats and currently split into two 2.5" Pipes with MRT GFX mufflers.

This was OK with the prior 376 C.I. L99 setup running 550rwhp, but obnoxiously loud with the cammed 416 C.I. stroker pushing 650rwhp. It's bad with minimal throttle.

I'm planning to covert to dual 3" after the downpipe, but I'd like some input on mufflers that cut down on interior drone, have a deep rumble, no rasp, and maybe allow me to start the car in the morning without waking the neighborhood.

Thanks in advance...moderators, sorry please move if in wrong location.
