Whats an ideal Muffler Length on my 3rd gen?
Wednesday, March 03, 2010 9:22 AM
Im looking at puting a dynomax super turbo on my new exhaust setup. Only problem is thats its a universal muffler and the 2.25 comes in various "lengths."

it comes in 25.5 in and 18.5 in i believe. This is the "shell length"

Any input? thanks.

If both would fit under there, longer is quieter. I believe min is the shorter one, but for 2.5" pipe.

I don't know if you have a specific sound that you are looking for, but I'll tell ya the superturbo alone will still be raspy without a resonator - even worse if you have a header and highflow cat.

Thanks! How long should the resonator be? would 17 in do the job you think?

The longer, the less raspy. Most generally suggest using the longest that will fit - and i've heard of ppl fitting 22".

ive got an 18" res and a 18" magnaflow and mine has almost zero rasp.... throaty, deep tone, but no rasp.

I hope then that a 17" res with an 18.5in superturbo will be similar.

Thanks for all the help! Im heading down to judds this weekend to get it all bent up!
