ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

      It sounds nice probably because of the Magnaflow muffler, which is pretty good quality. If it were a generic or fart can muffler, I dont think it would sound as good. So quality is definitely something to look into if you are looking for a certain sound

        Although I don't want to admit it, I have a generic fart can. But it sure doesn't sound like one! I found it on ebay a while back for $20 and I know that probably wasn't a good idea, but I love the way it sounds. That's all the aftermarket exhaust I have too. A Magnaflow or Borla muffler is on my list of future plans though.

          I'm not sure if I'm allowed to "bump" threads so I apologize if you're not supposed to, but does anyone else have any input or sound clips? I don't have the money for a full exhaust system so I just want to replace my muffler for sound and looks. With what I've gathered so far, it'll sound pretty decent if it's a high quality muffler replace such as magnaflow? Also, if I just replace the muffler, will the shop be able to tuck it like stock or will it hang down?

            Another thing you could do, is buy a $100 cheap eBay fart can exhaust, chop off the muffler, then weld up a good brand muffler. That way, you'll get new larger diameter piping, and it will sound better. Its pretty much the cheapest way to get a whole new exhaust and have everything sound good.
