i just had a magnaflow muffler put on, its a strait through, dual outlet muffler. for single sided twin exhaust. i still have the stock resonator

it sounds like absolute ASS, i couldn't stand the drive home. there are no exhaust leaks. what can i do? by the biggest damn resonator in the world? i dont understand why it sounds SOOOOO BAD it sounds like a loud honda with a fart can

someone help

f***!! Send me a link to the magnaflow site of which muffler u have....cause Im putting dual straight thru Magnaflows on.

Do u have V-6????

Lemme know man.....Im glad ya posted this!

shoulda gone with a flowmaster

he probably has a 4 cyl.

it's really hard to make a 4 cyl sound good. even the flowmaster wouldnt help much, but it may be a little better.

The GLS came with the 2.4/2.2?

no

well he must have ordered the wrong part number from magnaflow, that's the only way his 3.4 will sound like a fart can.

Give us some more info on themuffler and stuff... cus thats odd... what motor do you have, what muff.. etc

its the 3400 engine, here is a link

i dont see how it could be the "wrong muffler" i didn't order the fart can special

i just now ordered a glass pack to replace my stock resonator, did some researching and hopefully this will get rid of alot of drone, its the longest resonator dynomax makes, 26" case, 31" total

link isn't bringing it to the page, but its the wlk 24204

I have the magnaflow on mine and anybody that's heard it knows that it sounds good...even sounded arlight on my 2.4 but even better on my 3.4....no drone at all..

well theres the "american muscle" style, and the "sport compact" style.

you my friend have the WRONG muffler, a "sport compact" style.

i wanted to get some performance gains though

are you serious? how can you tell? just because its shorter?

if you go to magnaflow.com, and follow the american muscle links, it lists this muffler, its not the sport compact style

edit....it also lists this muffler under the sport compact......it lists it under every link, i dont see how you can say its either

i know they use a different baffle system in each style.

maybe a few "overlap" and yea.... there you are.

that's why when i got my exhaust, i used a muffler designed for a camaro.

its a strait through design.......hopefully that big ass long resonator i ordered will quiet her down, because i feel like putting the stock muffler back on

^---THAT'S the key, right there. To get the nice sound out of a Magnaflow on a 3400, it needs to be a camaro style muffler., such as this aluminized model: Camaro-style Magnaflow

Keep in mind though: Even though the flowmaster isn't a flow-through design like this one, it's much easier to route the piping AFTER the muffler, because they have an outlet on each end, like this one. This Ebay auction shows a flowmaster setup nicely, although the piping is fit for a Camaro and isn't compatable to our cars. B)

Hope this helps, Mike.

i didn't want dual exhaust. thats a typo on that muffler,a camaro muffler has a inlet and outlet on one side, outlet on the other. even if that was correct, (then it wouldn't be a camaro style) it would be to long.

the inside of a good sounding muffler looks something like this.



the inside of a fartcan looks something like this.



what does yours look like?

like the second one, only it Y's inside the muffler and the perforations dont stick out into the muffler holes.. im so pissed right now, it was not listed as a "sport compact" muffler on there website. it was under american power or whatever. im hoping that this big old 31" glasspack will calm the sound down, it only cost 26 shipped on summit.com

i guess we can cross our fingers and hope for the best.
