noob2soob22 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 well today i took the liberty of crushing my muffler:horse: (plugged up p.o.s.) going to blow a hole in the pocket for a new one. any reccomends for a performance muffler. i'd like to keep it deep but not too loud. the thrush turbos sound all right and are cheap enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Won't improve performance any. Just get whatever's cheap. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigsti Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I blew mine out on my gl a wile back and went with a glass pack. Sounds pretty good I got everything needed for install at autozone for around 45.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralDisorder Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I've driven quite a few EA81's with straight pipes. A glass pack will quiet it some. They aren't bad with the cat and resonator and a straight pipe so anything else you add will just make it better (quieter). GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mykeys Toy Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Turbone did a Thrush muffler for me last year. It is really quiet but when you can hear it it has a very low tone. I like it but almost wish it was a little louder.. Nah! I should quit perusing the board and go find where I am losing power to the fuel pump on that car.

Mike i had mine wired directly to a toggleswitch in my console for a minute. worked fine just used the Premanufacred ground as you normally would. and an old vaccum cord to run up to the toggle. got me to the ice run!! changed fuel pumps and hooked 'er up right.

Advance Auto has a pretty good deal bannered on their website right now, 15% off $100 and $50 off $100 coupon in the mail. and free shipping. like a kid in a candy store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aba4430 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Yes, Advance does have some very good deals, and I shop tons at Advance. The 15% off of $100 plus $50 off of another $100, adds upto $65 off of $200, or $32.50/$100. Advance's individual coupons like you find on on the following link, works out better in many instances.... http://www.techbargains.com/stores/4240/Advance-Auto-Parts-deals I usually try some until I get the best deal for what I really want, not pile up stuff as fillers to make the minimum $100 or whatever.....

hatchsub Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 If you shop around and dont mind spending a bit more...magnaflow makes a nice stainless steel muffler that has a lifetime warranty. I got tired of my exhaust rotting off every few years and splurged for a full SS exhaust from the engine back with a magnaflow muffler. Sounded nice and mellow at idle and when u got on it really woke up and made some nice subaru music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratman2 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Second the Magnaflow. I have had two Thrush mufflers over the years. One the case split after a couple of years (defective), the other rusted out from the inlet and dropped down after about 5 years. Now I run a Magnaflow stainless steel muffler. The Magnaflow is nice sounding on a flat four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
