Expert Answers about Chevrolet Performance Mufflers


  • Best Universal Muffler for 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer
  • There are two main things that need to be considered when choosing a universal muffler, fit and sound/performance. You will need to choose a muffler with the correct inlet diameter, and sized so that it will fit in the space provided under the vehicle. Mufflers that are more free flowing increase horsepower, torque and fuel efficiency, thus improving engine performance. However, the less restrictive the muffler is, the noisier it is. The MagnaFlow Stainless Steel, Straight-Through Universal...

  • Magnaflow Muffler Recommendation for 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 408 Stroker and Headers
  • So a straight through muffler will be your best option since you want as much performance as possible. The great thing about Magnaflow mufflers is they are a bit quieter and less likely to drone than other brands. I looked up your headers and the collectors are 2-1/2 inch diameter and the Y-pipe outlet is 3 inch. That means the Magnaflow muffler part # MF12198 would fit what you are looking for well. The inlet side is 3 inch like you need and the outlet is 2 -1/2 inch so back pressure would...

  • Recommended Performance Exhaust for 2014 Chevy Camaro LT 3.6L V6
  • I have two muffler and exhaust options available for your 2014 Chevy Camaro LT 3.6L V6. They are designed to improve engine performance by boosting horsepower and torque. These are specifically designed to fit your vehicle. Your first option, and my preference is the MagnaFlow Cat-Back Exhaust System - Stainless Steel # MF15353. This exhaust system has tubing that is 2-1/2 inches in diameter and is mandrel-bent to allow unrestricted airflow to decrease back pressure. Each performance...

  • Universal Fit Muffler Recommendation for a 2011 Scion tC
  • For a muffler, the size of the model that comes with the MagnaFlow exhaust for a 2011 Scion tC measures 5 inches tall, 8 inches wide, and 20 inches long overall with a 14 inch long body. It also has 2-1/4 inch inlet/outlets. A muffler like # MF14235, has these dimensions. Compare these measurements to what is required on your tC to determine fit. These mufflers are designed as universal fit items. They do make quite a few different sizes but they may not be an exact match.

  • Edge Performance Kit CTS2 Tuner, Jammer Intake/Exhaust That Fits 2003 Chevy Silverado Diesel
  • Edge Performance Kit with Evolution CTS2 Tuner, Jammer Air Intake, and Jammer Exhaust # EP29120-D that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2003 Chevy Silverado Duramax diesel. I can't recommend a way to remove the muffler to straight pipe your vehicle as that's an emissions thing we can't recommend you go against. But let's say this was an off-road application the best recommendation I could make would be to take the kit (or the truck with kit installed) to an exhaust shop and they'd...

  • Loud Racing Muffler Recommendation for a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette
  • The straight-through style mufflers like the MagnaFlow Stainless Steel, Straight-Through Universal Muffler - Race Series, # MF14161, that you referenced are the loudest mufflers that we carry. The race series mufflers are universal fit applications, so you will want to make sure the inlet and outlet size on the muffler is compatible with your exhaust system. If you still have the stock 2-1/2 inch exhaust pipes on your 1977 Chevrolet Corvette, then I would recommend the MagnaFlow Straight-Through...

  • Universal Magnaflow Muffler Recommendation for a 2001 Hyundai Elantra
  • We base our fits for mufflers on what the muffler manufacturer lists as confirmed fits. The MagnaFlow Stainless Steel Universal Muffler # MF10416 is a universal fit muffler and because of that it does not have any specific fits. There is a chance it would work on your 2001 Hyundai Elantra GLS, but that is something you would need to determine based on the specs of this product that are listed on the product page. This muffler will be pretty loud since it is a straight through design. It...

  • Best Magnaflow Muffler for 1978 Ford F-150 with True Dual Exhaust
  • If you have the 3 inch pipes, the MagnaFlow Stainless Steel, Straight-Through Universal Muffler # MF12867 will be a great option for the rumble and performance that won't be too loud for a conversation. Without knowing your pipe diameter, here are some other options: # MF14161 for 3-1/2 inch pipes # MF14163 for 4 inch pipes These muffler options require welding for installation but they are designed to curb the decibel level while giving you a smooth deep tone that is still louder than...

  • Performance Exhaust System Recommendation for a 2012 Mini Cooper S
  • I did some checking and it looks like the outer diameter of the replacement mufflers for your 2012 Mini Cooper S are 3 inches. Because of that the # MF14805 would not fit. Your best option would be the # MF15207 that is a replacement cat-back system. Otherwise you would need to take your vehicle to a custom muffler shop to have them fabricate you a replacement muffler similar to the # MF14805 since we do not carry the correct size.

  • Recommendation for a MagnaFlow Muffler that has Agressive Sound for a 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 5.9 Liter
  • I spoke with one of my colleagues that has a MagnaFlow Muffler on his Trans AM with the LS1 350 engine and he says it has a nice aggressive tone, does not drone in the cab, and when you accelerate it is louder like most people want. The muffler you selected, item # MF12198 is the smallest Universal muffler that Magnaflow makes and on a larger engine, like the 5.9 liter, this muffler is going to be very loud and will drone. This muffler has a 3 inch inlet and two 2-1/2 inch outlets. The...

  • How Many Catalytic Converters Does 1999 Ford F-350 Need
  • If your current catalytic converter is fine you wouldn't need to replace it. If yours on your 1999 Ford F-350 V10 does need replacing the part # MF55322 would be the correct fit and since your truck only has one this would be all you need.

  • Recommended Exhaust System for 2019 Ford Mustang With 5.0L V8 Engine

  • 50 State Universal Catalytic Converter for a 2004 Isuzu Rodeo with 3.5 Liter Motor
  • You can install a universal 50 state approved catalytic converter on your 2004 Isuzu Rodeo as long as the one you choose has the proper ports and is the right size. If you do this and have it professionally installed then it should not have a problem passing the emissions inspection. I have included a link to all of the universal fit 50 state approved converters that we carry. We do not currently offer O2 sensors. You should be able to pick up the correct one from an auto parts store or...

  • Does the MagnaFlow Cat-Back Exhaust System for a 2014 Infiniti Q50 Have Drone
  • The MagnaFlow Cat-Back Exhaust System part # MF15310 which is a fit for a 2014 Infiniti Q50 will take the factory 2" exhaust piping and then convert this to 2-1/2" for a deeper tone when accompanied with the performance muffler. I personally love the sound of MagnaFlow as they are subtle on idle and then deepen upon acceleration but there should be no drone with this setup. The tips are included as with the band clamps and everything else you need for the bolt-on installation.

  • Magnaflow Catback Horsepower Gain for 2012 Mini Cooper S
  • If you install the MagnaFlow Stainless Steel Cat-Back Exhaust System # MF15207 that you referenced on your 2012 Mini Cooper S you would see an increase of around 10 horsepower and 10 ft lbs of torque. The exhaust will be noticeably louder, but it wouldn't be obnoxious. We don't have any programmers confirmed to fit your vehicle, only gauge displays that do not give additional power.

  • Recommended Shift Points for 2013 Silverado 1500 4x4 LT with the 5.3 and 6 Speed Auto transmission
  • The one I recommend is the Superchips Flashpaq F5 Performance Tuner # SU2845 and is the correct model for your 2013 Chevy Silverado 5.3 liter truck. I contacted our technical representative at Superchips about the modifications you have made on your 2013 Chevy Silverado and what shift points they recommend. In the instructions about the downloading function to adjust transmission shift points it states that not all features marked in the chart are guaranteed to work due to unforeseen differences...

  • How To Increase Exhaust Sound on 2014 Mazda 3
  • The size of the exhaust tip has very little if at all to do with sound so the exhaust tips you just purchased are more or less for show. However, if you were to use a resonated exhaust tip such as the Bully Round Resonated Bolt-on Exhaust Tip part # PM-5104 then this would produce a slightly more crackly sound. With that being said, the best way to really change the sound of your exhaust for the better is with a cat-back system, the MagnaFlow Cat-Back Exhaust System part # MF15297 for hatchback...

  • Recommendation for 2002 Ford F-150 Lariat 5.4L to Sound Loud and Aggressive
  • The MagnaFlow 4" Exhaust Tip - Stainless, Clamp-On for 2-3/4" - 3" Tailpipe # MF35212 will make your truck louder, but there are other options to make it much louder if that is what you are seeking. I recommend the MagnaFlow Red Pack Glass Pack Straight-Through Muffler - Universal - Aluminized Steel - Satin Finish # MF13129 as well.
