Anybody else running non-borla/bosal/magnaflow/dynomax mufflers ?

I know you don't want to hear it but the sound I think you are going for can be had from the Dynomax Ultraflow. 2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.

Some of the magnaflow's i've heard are trying to sound too deep and bassy like it's trying to emulate a v8 ... that or they just took the pony canisters and modified the piping. Which mufflers do you have Demon ?

I bought the tiny rear Magnaflows because they easily fit in the stock location. If I did it again I would just stuff (and I mean stuff ) the normal size Ultraflows there. I had Ultraflows on the F-body setup and it was the best sounding Contour exhaust I have ever heard. Very throaty, exotic, sporty sounding. I agree the Magnaflows are a bit "boomy" for my taste. However they do sound really cool at idle. Dynomax sells those import style mufflers btw. I don't know about the variety but they do make some. 2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor!

However they do sound really cool at idle. depends on the magnaflows I guess... the setup I have is quieter than Borla which is good for my wife carting the kid to school, but does not sound as "macho" as some would prefer. it is louder than stock, but as Shaggy put it "it's probably more intake than exhaust" --alex \| 98 SE V6 MTX w/ things

I agree...I had an ultraflow on my probe GT with no resonator and it had a nice low rumble at idle and nice sound under acceleration.

This goes especially for the SVT models, which you can only see the tip and a very miniscule part of the muffler body, if any at all.... Specially lowered. I think the same muffler you posted the first pic of, but in full stainless should do the trick, and save you some dough. Also the burnt tip is more fling' than bling', so get it normal. XL
