If you don't want your car to sound like a bumbled bee you'll want a muffler with baffles. So far I've liked Magnaflow's XL line, their only baffled muffler, as it's what my brother used on his 2.0T Genesis Coupe and the 5.9 Durango and both sound really good. The Genesis especially surprised me as it's deep and rumbly with no rasp at all, which I imagine the turbo helps out a little there in that regard. Flowmaster, FlowTech/Hooker, and Thrush/Dynomax are others that offer baffled mufflers.

I'll have to check out that xl line. The ws2 isn't cheap haha. It's 280ish for an axle back.

QUOTE (Box @ Jan 5, 2016 - 2:33 PM)  Tires should be like this: TIRES  I've got backup tires/rims so it's not THAT much of a priority. but it would be nice to get the 7th gen rims back on.QUOTE (Jmk91 @ Jan 5, 2016 - 9:15 PM) What kind of an exhaust are you going to go with? I've been thinking about apexi ws2. I don't like the fart can sounding exhausts so that kinda eliminated 99%. I've been holding onto a greddy sp1 for a while now so I need to put that on. --------------------  *1997 Celica ST - 3SGE Greytop BEAMS *1977 Celica RA29 - Classic Cruiser *2005 Matrix AWD - dedded but still hanging around like a ghost 2019 Rav4 XLE Premium - Sports mode is fun. |

nope! it's literally been sitting in the garage all winter. crud and dust building up on it.
I literally just pulled it out and brushed off the crud. the camera and weather just makes it look like that. it's pretty bad in person.

Jesus man, those tires. I'd have just GIVEN you my old noisy tires off the Celica if you'd wanted them. I gave Joe my old brakes for his Corolla :lol:. Every time I upgrade stuff I have little to no use for the old stuff, so it either just sits and collects dust or gets thrown out.
