New Muffler Ideas / Specs?

[Ldub]

So, do they MAKE carbon-fiber exhaust tips?

Here are a couple I found on ebay...

You could have any tip powder coated black if that was the look you are going for. Normal powdercoat should be fine or there is high temp stuff for headers.

I ordered the Off-Road Extreme muffler today from Summit Racing. This is the first time I've ever ordered anything with the word "Extreme" in the name. (At least it wasn't spelled "X-Treme" or anything trendy...)

Here's the link:

I'll stop by my local muffler shoppe to find out about installation costs and exhaut tip options next week.

i found a 2.25 in 2.5 out muffler made for a monte carlo by dynomax... im thinkin about it, obviously ill need to change out the exhaust tip and pipes after the muffler.. anyone have thoughts on dynomax mufflers?its got hangers on it to fit under the monte carlo that ill probably need to chop off, but how would this new muffler be attached? or do the exhaust hangers on the pipes support the weight of it?

etlsport I was running a Dynomax muffler on my custom dual setup... That was until I blew the muffler up since I need some tuning and I am running to rich. But while I was running it sounded great. I have replaced it with the Magnaflow, but I think the Dynomax sound as good if not better than the Magnaflow.

If your installer has his poop in a group, he should be able to cut the hanger from the stock muffler & weld it to the new muffler. Or fab a new one to accomidate repositioning.

sweet.. thanks for the info guys.. i should probably be doing the install myself (assuming i can find a welder to use) ive got a good track record of doing modding myself so id like to keep it up.. only thing i didnt do on my vx myself is mount my tires

Yup. They can just re-use the original and tack it onto the new (Morgan-tec) muffler. The original has the rubber isolation too.
