Best Muffler Construction? (or "How to make a 4AGE quiet?")	Fri, 05 March 2004 01:46

Hey guys, Just wondering if there's anyone here with views or opinions on the best muffler design for getting a free-flowing exhaust with minimum noise. I've decided to bite the bullet after 4 years and want to get the exhaust gases moving a bit better, however want to try and keep the decibels down as much as possible. Most FWD 4AGE Corollas that I see with sports exhausts tend to piss me off a bit, and I'll be really annoyed if I end up with a system that: a) Is too loud b) Drones c) Sounds like a giant fart has been stuck up the car's arse! I'm not really interested in big shiney fuck-off mufflers or specific brand names, I just want something that works. My current plans are to keep the factory headers in place at the moment, and go for a pipe diameter of around 2 inches (with mandrel bends). Ideally I'll be able to unbolt the rear pipe (muffler) and bolt the standard one back on if I ever have to make a long trip and don't want the noise, but I'd prefer for it to not be so noisy that this is always necessary. Are there any thoughts/opinions/experience on what works well for the 4AGE in terms of muffling? And has anyone had the same aim as me in the past and been successful/unsuccessful in ever making it happen? Anyone? [Report message to a moderator]
