Best Muffler for SOHC

[Dylansav]

Anyone know what the best muffler for a 4.0L SOHC 98' engine?

 

[Turdle]

This is a matter of opinion-
if you try searching for "muffler" you'll see it has been discussed several times.

To be better able to give advise, you need to clarify what you mean by best?

Flowmaster 40 series or 50 series or 60 series. They are good for extra horse (5-15hp) power and exhaust sound is like a smooth rumble.

I want to use the 40 series on my 4.0 OHV V6 1993 EX.

Heres a 1999 with a 40 series on it.

does anyone make a muffler for the 4.0L that is quiet but less restrictive.

V6s with exhaust just sound horrible in my opinion.

Yes. Take a look at the Flowmaster 70.

Flowmaster 70 reasonably quiet good flow

Something with more power, I dont care about the sound. I have a stock muffler that's getting rusty. But what wouldn't sound horrible on a V6? It doesn't matter to me if it sounds like a truck or if it doesn't sound at all..as long as it doesn't sound ugly

I've heard that the SOHC 4.0L like back pressure though, this true?

Anyone try magnaflow mufflers? i hear they produce more power than flowmaster.

You know, years ago I had a 2.9 with a Flowmaster delta-flow 80 series, I THINK...and it sounded GOOOD.

At idle it sounded like a small 8-cylinder, I kid you not. At WOT, it gave a little bit of sound and not too much.

I want to put the same muffler on my 4.0 OHV but want to hear it on someone else's first!!!

I have a Magnaflow on my 01 Sport 4x4...buddy owns a Midas and hooked me up. I think it sounds GREAT!

I am putting down over 210 RWHP with my Flowmaster 70 on my SOHC.

I've heard that the SOHC 4.0L like back pressure though, this true?

Yes its true.
