Default What mufflers for my mods??

I droped a 413 cid engine in with TPiS headers and collector in to a Random Tech hi flow converter. I retained my KBD targa rear pipes. When I lit it off for the first time, the sound was deffining. It was like straight pipes on a Rail. Obviously, the targas arn't going to keep the cops away, even if they have Zero resistance.

What mufflers will handle 500 HP and make life on a cruse, comfortable?

Brand, personal choie. Personally I would get a "case", or welded type muffler;ones with a rolled seam may blow out eventually

Corsa cat-backs are supposed to be relatively quiet with the lowest interior resonance for our cars. Might be worth a look.

I have those same ones on the Z (about a year old) they are about completely blown out. Glad you had better luck with yours,
