SuperRallyRoo Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 I want a better sound, maybe better gas milage little bit more hp. What should I get? I don't want it to be overly loud... I'm thinking a glass pack would be super loud on this car, any ideas? My muffler does need replacing, its all rusted out and ghetto looking.

THAWA Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 I dont think a muffler would give you any of those except better sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowmastered87GL Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 I think a WRX setup may fit... Isnt that what "The Scooby" did to his MI wagon?? Take off parts should be plentiful and cheap on NASIOC.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setright Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Best way to get a little more sound and be sure of perfect fit: Buy an standard Sube muffler, and cut off the two exit pipes and weld two 60mm pipes on instead. You could use stainless if you have the right welding tools. This will give a deeper tone, but very little increase in actual noise level. Paint the rest of the muffler with heat resistant black paint. This makes the mod less obvious and keeps future rust at bay. EJ22´s already have a very nice sound, and this detriorates as the muffler rusts. I think you would be surprised by how much sound quality you gain with a new stock muffler. Or even better a non-original replacement from Bosal or similar. Copies are rarely as quiet as genuine parts. As I wrote somewhere else on this board, the power gain is minimal with a free flow exhaust, 2-3 hp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
