What muffler?
Well, as mentioned in a previous thread, my muffler got fscking trashed earlier this week, and i am in need of a new one. I don't really have time or money to do a nice system, as i'm still in high school. I've thought about getting a Flowmaster 80 Series, as it sounds okay on the clip and mounts transversely behind the rear like mine, so that i don't need to change anything really. I'll probably put a pipe in place of the cat eventually seeing as here in southern utah, cat's aren't required. Any ideas?

Re: What muffler?
cats are required nationally. Whether or not you have inspection is up to your state.
I'd say go with magnaflow if you're looking for a cheap, easy, good-sounding replacement

Re: What muffler?
Flowmasters sound more tinny IMO. Magnaflows sound nice. Not sure how they would sound on a 2.8 tho.

Re: What muffler?
a 2.8 would sound a tad better than a 3.8 since it's a 60 degree. No v8 but not too bad.

Re: What muffler?
I checked the site and they don't seem to have anything for the 2.8

Re: What muffler?
get a force pro series muffler from jegs, then go to autozone and buy the approprail sized 90* angle then a 1' straight peice and dump it out the back, this will be donee for less then $40
 (force = flowmaster)
