Need New Muffler

[Tungsten]

I am looking for a new muffler so I would like some advice

1. I want to use the stock midpipe, which bolts on nicely to the header collector 2-piece pipe

2. I want the muffler to slide right into the stock midpipe (I don't like adapters much)

3. I need a straight through muffler, the stock muffler is not very good with headers

 

I would prefer something from either Magnaflow or Flowmaster

I bought the Gibson cat-back from AC, it is basically everything you described. 2 bolts at the flange, 2 hangers (one combined with a clamp) done. (The pic is flipped on their ad page.)

hey Grim, i was lookin at that exhaust, and was gonna see if anybody had it.

 

How do you like the sound? do you notice an increase in horsies?

[Tungsten]

crap thats alot of money to spend on an exhaust lol

well i guess gibson cat back and a magnaflow cat would be a nice combo

what size cat though? i would like it to bolt right to the gibson exhaust

and where would the o2 sensor go? i'm confused

Go to Pepboys and get the Thrush Turbo Muffler for like $20-25. Its reversible and has 2 sounds in one!

 

I dont remember if it needs adapters or not... if it does they are like $3 bucks and right next to it!

The problem with cheap mufflers is they put out too much droning noise. I like Gibson because they sound good and at the same time don't drone. Thats the reason I tried stock cat and muffler combo with headers. I wanted the exhaust to flow yet at the same time keep the droning away.

The Gibson is cat-back, O2 is in front of cat. BTW, that is about the cheapest good quality pre-bent cat-back available.

 

Between the Gibson, the Pacesetters and the cone filter my 93 sounds pretty mean.
