thinking of geting a universal muffler and I want to go with the high flow res first can I get one just any where or at least in Canada near BC.? I have a high flow APC filter, sounds great but hope to soon get the CTA with the SP motosport filter. I have a long list of mods thanks to this web site and i've removed the badges and iam about to kanauberize, painted the front grille grey to match the wheels and I want to get a red ford emblem if any one knows where to get one or make it myselfthat would help to. Thank you all. and to the creaters of this site Thank you very much!

any exhaust shop can weld in a muffler

but why not get larger piping also instead of just replacing mufflers

Yeah, either that or just replace the res with a straight pipe.

Actually, If you're going to go through all of that, put on a SVT exhaust.

I had just no res for a while, not a huge difference. Now I have no res and no muffler and can't wait to get bigger pipe and a dynomax muffler. I say save your money until you get a good exhaust system. At least a svt exhaust or 2.25" single exhaust with a high flow muffler. At most, header, no cat/hi-flow cat, and 2.5" pipe with hi flow muffler.

I've had no res with a straight pipe and aftermarket muffler...it satisfied me temporarily but I don't really like the sound of having just a muffler. It doesn't sound the same as having a full exhaust setup...no balls in the sound.

Ive also had no res and no rear muffler...never do that. Man does that sound like sh!t...and loud too, plus tons of rasp.

I've got an svt exhaust right now with a stock res and no rear mufflers...If I was going for any setup, I'd keep the res and do without the rear muffler.
