Need a muffler suggestion - Lateral-g Forums

I cant get the corsa db red series muffs since there discontinued. Could really use a suggestion on a muff that has minimum drone. Going behind an LS7.

Thanks Rich

Look into Borla.

Thanks Stuart- Im going to assume that you have them on your 69 Ls7, are they reasonably mellow while cruising and do you have full tail pipes out the back.

I just dont want the thing to be obnoxious while cruising a long distance, of course we want it to roar when in the gas.

Thanks Rich

Have you heard anything from Spintech? I have them behind my LS1 and I hopefully I will be putting them on my Camaro soon also

Tj - I dont know if there are different styles of spintech, but the ones I heard on a friends 55 were so loud I thought the earth was shaking. I could hear him coming from a mile away.

I think my choices are narrowed down to either borla, magna flow, and stainless works. The question is which one will be the most mellow at cruise rpm.

Thanks Rich

I like the sound on my LS7 camaro that I had. But they sound good on all the DSE cars that I've driven in. Im sure there are others but Borla is a good sound IMO. Good luck. I think Scott has spintech and they sound good also.

Stuart - Scott has the corsa red series mufflers on his car, I emailed him a week ago. I cant believe they discontinued that package, no doubt a high quality piece, they put a ton of effort into the noise cancellation hardware inside the case. I think it just cost them to much to build it.

I've been looking at the spintechs.... Mostly because I can get one with a 3 inch case. ALOT of people say the spintechs are too loud.... But the issue I have with that is that they have alot of different models ranging from a full race version to a quiet street version. So when someone states they are too loud , it would be nice to know which version they are referring to

Scott had Spinntechs at first, my bad. He said they were real loud, and age thing LOL. I wouldn't like loud either, age thing, LOL.

Will CR have an effect on how loud a particular engine will be? Say an ls7 with race gas only level CR as opposed to pump gas CR? Exhaust will be 3 inch with x-pipe. I'm looking for loud obnoxoius hear you from blocks away sound!

I want car alarms going off etc! Lol! I don't plan on going on long drives so quiet isnt a factor
