Ceramic muffling cartridge? I've never heard of that before. Looks like it allows for better flow then traditional straight thru designs

I've always been a fan of borla mufflers, they always sound nice and perform well. Burns stainless also carries some wicked looking mufflers.

Another muffler thread? Anyway, thermal is one of the quietest, but they are pretty expensive. They have a nice, deep tone to them.


I guess I was not aware that there is/was already a muffler discussion here.

Thanks to all that have responded!

As you can see Thermal is a very good, but expensive choice. If you decide to use Thermal, get their whole cat-back not just a muffler; they design all their stuff very well to extract as much power as possible. Apexi does aswell with their N1 systems.

don't thermal catbacks narrow down from 3" to like 2.5 or sumthin so they can mate up with stock cats? That's one thing I didn't like about em if I'm remebering correctly. But I just had the Thermal muffler put on another companies piping, and it sounded really good.

Thats pretty lame if they do, I know Apexi just uses an adaptor that gets tossed in the trash aslong as you have a downpipe (Apexi's or RRE's).

My 1G FWD system narrowed down to about 2" to fit the stock cat but I just cut it off and ran a 2.5" piping. When I ordered mine through HRC they offered to set it up for 3" slip fit at no extra charge.

I didn't realize Burns manufactuers mufflers. I'll definitely have to check those out and see if I can find any feedback about them.
