Mid Mufflers... How to build one?

[apardal]

Hi!

I would like to know what you guys think is the best way to build a high performance, low noise mid muffler.

As i said before, i have tsudo headers, 2.25" pipe, 2.75" (16" long) ressonator, under diff and apexi ws universal final muffler. The car makes a huge amount of noise... I can't bear it.

My question is, how should i build a mid muffler (inside) to get the lowest noise with highest performance? Some sort of compromise.

this is option n.º 1: almost straight through design
do you think it will be enough for the sound deadening issue?



this is option n.º 2: has two 180º bends and sure is more restrictive
will i lose too much power?



Thanks a lot

Best Regards

is this your daily driver or just for track/drifting?

if its not your daily driver and the noise is starting to bother that much try some earplugs, I use them all the time

Your post gave me the possibility to have an enormous laugh! That's indeed the best / cheapest way to solve my problem!

Seriously... this is not my daily driver but i use it every weekend and sometimes when my daily driver has to go to repair shop or something like that.

Anyway, right now i have to do something about it... in fact... i did.

The guy who made the exhaust line for me, also made a mid muffler after i tested it without one and realised the car was making to much noise.

That mid muffler is assembled right now, but the manufacture was not too bright because the guy used some 40mm fittings that blocked the flow completely. The car doesn't pull as it used to. The noise was lower, almost bearable (it had some rattling noises coming from the mid muffler that the guy said he might had forgot to weld some spots).

After this he said he would make another one for free, but since his muffler manufacturing skills are not "tip top", i thought you guys would give me some hints and tips.

Best regards
