My oem muffler is cracked and sounds like the baffling has come loose. I have a 3" center in center out 40 series flowmaster left over from my old Trans Am. How do you guys think it will work or would I be better off putting a straight pipe inplace of the cat and muffler until I can get a new 4" system. Looking for a quick fix.

 

Straight pipe it. You will never go back Darn. Wish dads muffler would crack

I agree with Eric

If my stinger would crack id do it too... lol!! Go 4our inch with a resonator to reduce the drone, yet not the noise... ahhh yess... music.....

Dont use the flowmaster. It will sound terrible on the diesel. Straight pipe! Much nicer sound!!!

 

Thanks Guys for the replys I will remove the muffler and funnel looking thing and weld in a section of pipe

 

If you striaght pipe the exhuast and leave the stock tip. Also I just re-used the old clamps from the muffler. $30 dollars and you can have one too ... There is very little drone to it... Going down the highway 65 MPH you can't hear the exhaust at all until you hit the skinny pedal! Then she will grunt a bit...Not bad...

I still think Harley's motorcycles are louder!



Where did the muffler go???!!!

 

Yeah, but i also still think our CTD's sound better

Nice pic I just stopped by the local muffler shop and he wanted $65 to put the straight pipe I will buy the pipe and do myself

 

Thanks!

You will need about 64" inches of 3" pipe. It ran me a whole $30 bucks to do it. I reused the old clamps. The muffler shop flared the end for free! That's cool!

Love the melody of the singing turbo diesel engine!

 

Thanks Mopar1973man, I called a shop today that will sell me the pipe for $30 I prefer to do things myself anyway

 

Out with the old in with the new Sounds great and helped with throttle responce Muffler what?



Here is the crack worse than I thought


Thanks guys for heading me in the straight direction

 

boostedte37,

Have you notice the grab handle that DC put on the muffler? I think that so you can throw that muffler as far as you can!

 

I think I might take it to the scrap yard and have it crushed that thing is almost as big as a VW and almost as heavy

Just got the BHAF on today

 

Let me know how it is I'm think of getting too... Guages first though...

As for crushing the muffler... Take it out for taget practice... Give it some extra breathing holes!

 

Mopar1973man,
The straightpipe in combo w/BHAF feel like they have made a big improvement
I still have the turbo whistle like the K&N and the interior noise is slightly higher but thats music to my ears I would like any suggestions on what modds I should do next without overloading the tranny Thanks Guys
