so i just got the evo 9 exhaust muffler from my friend. and i was wondering what the sound would be like with stock header and catback piping? since i've had this cheap brand muffler (that i don't know what the name is.. but it looks like the apex n1) and it's super loud.. would i get a raspy sound with the evo 9 muffler?

 

i have a cheap brand muffler and its raspy now cuz there is a leak the only way your car will be raspy is if the tip is super small but if it is an evo 9 muffler that is say 3 inch it might sound like what are car sounds like with no muffler

 

3" diameter will be too much for your car. U might loose some power by putting bigger diamerter muffler. Dont quote me on this, do a little research.

 

well i just measured the part where it connects to the piping and it's about 2.25 inches and the outlet is like 4 inches..

 

ur fine than. Done go any bigger than 2.5"

 

PR Mivec had it in his car and it worked and sounde great. Nothing to worry!!!

 

magnaflow 14829 muffler has a 3 inch tip, I have this on mine and it sounds great for what its worth.

 

it will liik like this.. it did in fact sounded great...

 

Thank you for posting this...I did not know it was a DIRECT fit. Very cool.

 

no it isnt.... notice that the muffler's inlet is on the side... i had to make a mandrel bend in order for it to fit the stock route

 

I see it now. Either way looks like a nice install.

 

how many DBs is it?
