I know this has been asked before but most of the treads lead to louder exhaust than i am interested in. Right now i have a ravin 55 muffler and thats their kind of mid grade in loudness and flow from what i gather. I would like to change this to something like the stock muffler or even quieter than that but hate to lose performance. Are there any new options out there. From what ive seen flowmaster 70 would probably be the quietest. I have even considered reinstalling the stock muffler but i really hate to do that. Ive just gotten past my louder stage and want it to be quieter now since i havent made this into any kind of performance machine. If you have any suggestions im all ears. Oh i am running the stock pipes too so they are still the same size. I have a borla intercooled tip on and that seems to make it a little milder too. Thanks, Major
 






What? wait a minute ( shuts engine off) ok now I can hear you.
I too am faced with this situation, i've even upgraded my stereo and the flowmaster drone is still there. It is just like the old girlfriend, you know, the one who wouldn't shut up, or go away.
Now to break up with a muffler, hard to do
I'm curious to hear what the 70 series would sound like, so for that reason only I recommend trying it
seriously, it sounds to me like you'd be happy with the original,


Jon
