Default Muffler choice

I have true dual 2.5 ss exhaust with reproduction mufflers on my 75 L48. I was thinking about putting the monza mufflers on for a deeper sound. I haven't seen real positive feedback on the quality of the monzas though. Any recommendations on mufflers that will give me a real deep sound? Thanks

my Car sounds pretty mean with the flowmaster dual chambered exhaust. As with anything, the sound is a matter of opinion but I really love mine.

:cheers:

You might want to hit some car shows. Get there early so you can hear the cars arrive and listen to the different set ups. Like Steve posted, sound is a personal taste thing and what one guy loves another might hate.

Agree sound is a personal choice. Dynomax Super Turbo or Ultraflow.

:cool:

I went with the Ultraflows for my new exhaust system, hard to beat those cfm #'s at that price.

I am very happy with the Hooker Max flows I got. They are a straight through design and sound awesome. You can find them in the summit catalog and on the Holley website. Mine were 50 dollars each.
