3.7 Mufflers, whose got'em?

[WSP Jeep]

Im looking to purchase a muffler in the near future for my 3.7, anyone have any experience with Gibson? Or any other mufflers that are not obnoxious? Thanks

[Grandcherokee51]

Im getting a powerstick installed in the next week

[iJeep]

^^ Sound clip?

[Grandcherokee51]

Ya when i get it on ill def post one im waiting impatiently for my uncle to weld the sucker in. Figures he has to take apart his boat engine this week.

[LO.7]

I have a flowmaster muffler.

[WSP Jeep]

Which flowmaster are you running? Does it drone on the highway? How loud during city driving? Thanks

[LO.7]

Flowmaster 40 series. Doesn't really drone at highway speeds, but does at lower rpm's.. Really depends how loud you want it. I like my exhaust obnoxiously loud, so it works for me.

[NHWK05]

Try a Magnaflow, Or buy my exhaust thats for sale in the for sale section. It would sounds great i bet and prolly wont drone, My flowmasters always droned but this setup does not drone at all on my 4.7 and would look sick for a 3.7.

[WSP Jeep]

Had a bad experience with magnaflow's on my accord V6 and would rather go other routes i.e. Gibson, Powerstick, Flowmaster, Edlebrock SDT. Thanks though and keep the comments coming. Cant wait to hear the powerstick.

[Grandcherokee51]

^^Me either lol

[WSP Jeep]

So did you install the powerstick?

[TimmyB]

I have the Magnaflow SS catback on my 3.7 and I like it. It sounds throaty on take off but quiet coasting and on highways. I dont have any sound clips, but it sounds just like the clip of the one on the magnaflow web site. I'll try and find it. I actually want one of my friends to swap cars so i can follow and actually hear what it sounds like driving, ive only heard it when my cousin took it for a few passes so i could hear.

But looking back and what I know now, I think I would buy Corsa because I like the ones Ive heard and have pipes bent up at a shop, instead I went the easy route and bought one complete. Now i someone put the idea in my head to get the srt exhaust which sounds great to me.

[WSP Jeep]

Wow, there has to be atleast person out there who owns a 3.7 with a good sounding universal muffler.

[Scottina06]

do NO muffler and add a resonator! It will sound badass....(you can thank me later)

[WSP Jeep]

Eh, Id rather be able to have a conversation on the highway.... Im looking for something with minimal drone if possible.

[B.P.O.D]

i put a magnaflow round muffler in and it's loud but i can still hear on the highway.
i would try what scott is saying bc timmy's with 2 resonator's and no muffler sounds sick!!! i do like mine though but it might be too loud for you.

[JeepKid]

I know this is off topic but does timmy have videos of his exhaust posted somewhere on the site? I've been wantin to hear what his exhaust sounds like.

[B.P.O.D]

yes check out his srt exhaust thread

[FlyinRyan]

I referred Irfan to the Magnaflow round case Part no. 10436, which is a 4x22. He seems to like it, but it is an aggressive muffler. I'd recommend something like a 6x18 or 6x22 round, since you're looking for something a bit tamer.

I initially had a mixed opinion on Magnaflow when I ran a 5x8x18 oval case (common design ), I went to a different muffler and wouldnt run anything else.

[B.P.O.D]

^^^ yup great advise from ryan:)

[Chris]

whats the difference between the round and oval style mufflers? sound, performance, same thing?

[FlyinRyan]

sound, fitment, I took .35 off my 1/4 mile time going from a 2.5" catted Magnaflow oval case to a catless 3" round case.

[Scottina06]

Eh, Id rather be able to have a conversation on the highway.... Im looking for something with minimal drone if possible.

you will have 0 drone with a resonator and tons of drone with a muffler and no resonator

[Scottina06]

whats your drone like Irf....and dont lie?????? LOL I can tell by the sound of it you have drone on the highway

[B.P.O.D]

with the round 4" muffler i have drone up to 2.5k!!! that is local and highway driving. i have adapted my driving to try to minimize that as much as possible but the drone is there from when you give it gas to 2.5k:( oh well still sounds good to me:)

[WSP Jeep]

you will have 0 drone with a resonator and tons of drone with a muffler and no resonator

Did you mean zero drone with two resonators? and tons of drone with a aftermarket muffler plus the stock resonator? Thanks

[B.P.O.D]

there will be drone with an aftermarket muffler only. how much you get depends on which one you get!

to have the srt exhaust (2 res only) you have to axe your stock muffler and your spare tire and a hitch:(

[FlyinRyan]

One thing that has to be kept in mind is that drone is a byproduct of not only muffler design, but placement as well. Same thing with exhaust hangars.

Dynamat can be used to help minimize resonance in the cabin. It'll also help take out some of the road noise as well.

[B.P.O.D]

yeah come spring time i plan on taking out my seats and adding dampening material to lower the noise:)

[Scottina06]

I dont mean to add the SRT exhaust. I mean just add a resonator somewhere close to the end of the exhaust and it will cut down on the drone

[B.P.O.D]

so you're saying to add a resonator to my current piping?

[Scottina06]

yes.... and lose the muffler and it will sound similar to Timmys. But I think yours sound great already. BUT...one thing I hate...hate is drone. So if it doesnt bother you...I wouldnt bother

[Robert Palmer]

Drone? Que? :D

[B.P.O.D]

yah it was really bad at first but weird thing is after putting in the k+n the drone is less!!! am i nuts?

[Scottina06]

i think youve just got used to it....LOL

[B.P.O.D]

hahaha could be... my mom also stated it who knows... lets say "if" i did replace my magnaflow muffler with the resonator,would that cause me to loose any hp that i gained with my magnaflow muffler, butt hp that is:)

[Robert Palmer]

hahaha could be... my mom also stated it who knows... lets say "if" i did replace my magnaflow muffler with the resonator,would that cause me to loose any hp that i gained with my magnaflow muffler, butt hp that is:)

(Facepalm)


Another quote by Irfan.:D

[Scottina06]

I would love to see the dyno backed claims that a single muffler, added to a stock exhaust adds hp.......I'm just so skepticasl i guess??????

[blackpepper]

It may add 1 or 2 hp at most to the wheels.. a resonator is usually glass packed with straight pipe running through the middle of it.. it's insulated piping in a can.. so you shouldn't lose any hp from having a reso..

[B.P.O.D]

so why does the muffler add hp??? im confused:(

[blackpepper]

Depending on the muffler it may increase the hp a little but not a lot unless you do the whole exhaust system. As far as loud goes, you are inside you won't notice the noise much and if you can increase the hp you are using less power to drive the car so you could see a slight increase in mileage also.

[B.P.O.D]

thanks ryan

[blackpepper]

Anytime.

[TimmyB]

so why does the muffler add hp??? im confused:(


I came across this article online and it seems informative.

http://www.nsxprime.com/FAQ/Miscellaneous/exhausttheory.htm

[blackpepper]

Good article ^^^

[TimmyB]

Basically from my research online is a muffler alone wont do much in terms of performance and gains will be minimal if any, but instead get it purely for a different exhaust tone.

[Scottina06]

Duh!!! Lol

[WSP Jeep]

Anyone have the link to Timmy's exhust clip? Thanks

[TimmyB]

Well I was just saying that because of all the misleading ads out there for aftermarket mufflers adding huge amounts of HP and all that crap.

Me, im mostly all for looks and sound. I know I have a tiny 3.7 and I got it because of that fact its a six banger and I was tired of the high gas prices with my previous V8 GC's. If I really wanted a high HP car I would of gone with the Hemi, but I dont tow or go offroading or even drive like a nut anymore, so my little V6 does me just fine on the highway. Plus no one would really guess I only had a V6 with how it looks now, just yestarday I had a Mustang Cobra pull up right beside me on the highway wanting to race me. I actually would of at least tried if my exit wasnt right there and I was getting off. I get that alot, I notice people pulling up right beside me staring at me to race them. Maybe they think I have an srt for some reason, or at least something done to my engine which I dont at all. Lol

[TimmyB]

Anyone have the link to Timmy's exhust clip? Thanks


Let me find it. Its in my "Finally installed my srt set-up" I think.

[TimmyB]

I think this should work.

[WSP Jeep]

Bump, so has anyone with a 3.7 purchased a muffler in the last few months?

Scott, Im still considering the idea of removing my stock muffler for another resonator, which one would you recommend? Thanks

[Megatron]

GCL06 posted a video of his Thrush muffler.

[WSP Jeep]

GCL06 posted a video of his Thrush muffler.

Ya I saw that, but im still looking for other options.

[FlyinRyan]

Irfan's setup sounds good but is too loud for most...5x22" or 6x18" should be tamer.

[Robert Palmer]

Irfan's setup sounds good

No it doesn't.



JMHO though. :D

[FlyinRyan]

No it doesn't.



JMHO though. :D

Not everyone can sound like a Hemi....of course, there's those of us who choose to make our own kinda noise. ;)

[Robert Palmer]

No no. Your Jeep sounds badass.

Irfan's on the other hand sounds like shit.

In my opinion, you don't put a race muffler on a 3.7, that's just begging to sound like a ricer.

[Scottina06]

Bump, so has anyone with a 3.7 purchased a muffler in the last few months?

Scott, Im still considering the idea of removing my stock muffler for another resonator, which one would you recommend? Thanks

a free one...LOL. Seriously though...find a 5.7 or srt that has removed their stockl exhaust and maybe they will give ya one.

[Megatron]

Ok question guys. I just want a lil rumble when on idle.. but nothing like a ricer, is this possible lol

[Chris]

I am thinking of becoming a guinea pig and picking up a flowmaster muffler for shits and seeing what that sounds like, only problem is there is SO many flowmaster types to choose from, what would likley sound best? 50 series, SUV ones, ???

[GCL06]

I'm partial to the 50 series.

[WSP Jeep]

I think the 50 series would sound great on a 3.7. I have heard them on libertys and they sound awesome. I just want to know how bad they drone.

[B.P.O.D]

if you do a search you can search for "geevis" here . he has a flowmaster. sounds very similar to my magnaflow.... its very hard to get a deep rumble with our v6's... its gonna sound a little ricer no matter what... i like it... as long as you like it that's all that matters...

joe - since we're being honest, i thought ur exhaust on ur 5.7 sounded like complete chit w/o a resinator and sounded like a garbage truck in 1st gear . IMO

[Robert Palmer]

Ok I'm fine with that opinion. But it seems to me I struck a nerve w/ you. Do you need some kleenex? :p

[B.P.O.D]

hahaha young one do you really think you're gonna EVER get to me>>>>>> you should know better.... lolololol

i always will <3 you joe!!!! lololol

[TimmyB]

Too funny, telling someone there rig sounds like a garbage truck is harse.

[B.P.O.D]

joe know what i meant:)

[WSP Jeep]

So I finally said screw it to waiting any longer and ordered a Gibson muffler (part # 55192), should be here in about a week. I'll post a video once I get it installed.

[Robert Palmer]

Congrats on the purchase.

[B.P.O.D]

awesome bro!

[WSP Jeep]

Ya im really looking forward to the muffler, I just hope the drone is bearable on the highway or else its back to stock. Im not that worried though because Gibson is known for a nice quality sound that is not too obnoxious.

[B.P.O.D]

yeah for me the drone is the worst in the morning on a cold start... also drone from 70-80 mph

[WSP Jeep]

Got my Gibson in the mail today, should have it installed tomorrow or Friday at the latest. Ill post a video clip once I get it installed.

[FlyinRyan]

yeah for me the drone is the worst in the morning on a cold start... also drone from 70-80 mph

It's because of the cats not being warm. they muffle the sound some once up to operating temp.

[B.P.O.D]

^^^ yeah its much better when the truck is warmed up:)

[WSP Jeep]

Ok, so I got my Gibson installed today and it sounds great, but may be a tad bit to loud for me. It honestly sounds like a small V8 when it starts up, there is just a slight rumble at idle and its not much louder than stock, when your moving you can tell its there through all gears except 5th where it becomes alot quieter (no highway driving yet). Ill post a video in an hour or so...

[B.P.O.D]

NICE!!!! looking fwd to hearing it!

[Chris]

Yes, looking forward to hearing it as well!

[WSP Jeep]

Ya its snowing in South Georgia, so no video til tomorrow.

[05quadratrac]

I dont have a 3.7, I have a 4.7 but a few months ago I put an 18in Magnaflow on and a K&N intake, it made a huge difference in sound, it sounds awesome when I get on it, it doesnt have the "truck sound" its more of a muscle car sound. I dont have a resonator, we didnt have them on 05's and I do get some drone right at 2k but its nothing bad and I would recomend the setup to anyone. Using autostick will let you get even more sound out of it.

[sms07h]

im still waiting on the video....

[WSP Jeep]

My bad guys, I took a video then my buddies girlfriend borrowed the camera before I could upload it. Should have it back tonight...

On a side note, the muffler is too loud for me around the 2000-3500 rpm range, it drones badly in the cabin. At idle it sounds awesome and at higher Rpm's it sounds pretty good. I think I am going to buy a large magnaflow resonator (18" or 22") and see if I can cancel most of the sound out.
My mpg's have gone up about 2 on the highway and about 1 around town. Throttle response was also improved.

[AcidCold]

A 50 series SUV or 70 series big block in 2.5'' in and out will sound good, not annoying at all since those models are designed with delta flow tech and will have a nice mellow tone. Ideal for a v6.

hehe i have the same issue... the drone at 2k sucks! its just the nature of the 3.7 engine:)

[WSP Jeep]

Here are the videos of my Gibson;

[FlyinRyan]

It doesn't sound terrible but I can see how it could drone.

[TimmyB]

I have the 3.7 with the dual SRT8 exhaust, no muffler, cats going to a single pipe then a "Y" back to the dual SRT pipes over the axle and the dual SRT resinators and tips. I noticed ALOT of water coming from the tips, like if im sitting in my car on lunch break there is a big puddle on the ground below the tips. Is that normal?

[AcidCold]

That sounds better than anything else i have heard on a 6.
Now by my freaking speakers! :D

[06RC22]

wow that sounds really good!

[sms07h]

i think it sounds great too. how much did you pay for the install?

[WSP Jeep]

Thanks for the compliments. Ya I really like the sound of it during idle and the drone has grown on me while driving (it only drones really when going up hills). I still might end up installing a 12" magnaflow resonator, just might wait a month or so.

sms07h, I paid $30 for the install.

Acid, trust me they are still on my list, even though I just bought some sport rails but I was offerred too good of a deal to pass up.

[JeepKid]

Sounds good man. My neighbors got a 90' something grand cherokee v8 and it sounds very similiar to this.

[B.P.O.D]

sounds good bro! very similar to mine as well!!! i might think about a resonator as well

[TimmyB]

It seems quiet to me, maybe its just the video though. my Magnaflow catback seemed louder on video, and I did not have any drone, at least I didnt hear any because I think of all the soundproofing I did to my car. I did a decent stereo system and went a little overboard with the peel n stick membrane in the doors and cargo floor and used that canned spray foam to fill the cargo door frame and inside of the rear fenders. Is drone caused by the exhaust coming out the tips?

[WSP Jeep]

Its only gets loud when the rpm's are around 2000-3000k and when the engine is under stress (hills, sudden acceleration) and yes it seems like the drone is coming mostly from the rear. Ive thought about sound proofing it, just dont want to bother.

Im contemplating pulling the gibson off and going back to stock, but I really dont want to loose the gas milage that Ive gained. I just cant pull the trigger to purchase a 12" resonator and have it installed only for it to still drone.

[mike03]

how much did this setup cost you?

[WSP Jeep]

$105 shipped for the muffler and $30 to install.

[B.P.O.D]

timmy i also plan on sound proofing the trunk in the spring!

[TimmyB]

timmy i also plan on sound proofing the trunk in the spring!


I completely forgot, I still have a roll of the peel-n-stick membrane in my basement. I think it was you who wanted it, no? Im just going to throw it out, unless you want it for shipping cost? It's the same stuff I used to lay over my cargo floor pan. There is enough to do all your doors and cargo area. Let me know, its just sitting there. Here is the data sheet on it, It is the 18"x 100' roll and hardly any used from it if any.

http://files.buildsite.com/dbderived-f/carlislecoatings/derived_files/derived352137.pdf


Here is a pic of it installed in the cargo area. Works great.

There's dirt and wood chips on the ends, on the sticky sides, because its been in my basement but they clean right off. PM me if you want me to ship it, with your address. I will UPS it ground, and just paypal me when I ship it with the cost.

[03svt]

here is my magnaflow muffler on my 06wk v6http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u263/mikebones_photos/th_Picture070.jpg (http://s170.photobucket.com/albums/u263/mikebones_photos/?action=view&current=Picture070.flv)

[Megatron]

^ I like the sound of that.

[TimmyB]

^^^ Sounds a little bit quieter than the full catback I had previously on mine. But def "better" than the stock. Im assuming thats just the muffler and stock pipes correct?

[TimmyB]

I still have my Magnaflow SS catback, to sell for decent money.

[B.P.O.D]

sounds good bro!

[Nick.Nevada]

Looking for not loud muffler for 3.7 :) I was read this thread carefully

Is the Gibson really most quiet aftermarket muffler?

Which the Gibson PN?

[WSP Jeep]

The Magnaflow is probably quieter than the Gibson if I had to judge based on my personal experience with the Gibson and how quiet the magnaflow sounds on video.

[B.P.O.D]

well depends on which magnaflow your looking to get.... stay away from the round exhausts if you want quiet... get the 5x11 oval

[FlyinRyan]

well depends on which magnaflow your looking to get.... stay away from the round exhausts if you want quiet... get the 5x11 oval

Theres nothing wrong with the round mufflers, but they have to be sized properly.

I talked with a Magnaflow rep a while back asking them about muffler dimensions and how they affect drone. The rep said that typically the width of the casing will play a important role in resonance and overall sound levels.

That being said, the 5x8x18 or 5x11x22 is probably a safe bet, but I just wanted to dispel the myth going around that round mufflers will automatically make your ears bleed.

[TimmyB]

When I had my Magnaflow full catback exhaust with the 12"X22" oval muffler on before I can tell you it was "louder" than stock obviously when getting on the throttle, but cruising it was hardly noticable. From what you write I think you would be happy with a larger magnaflow straight thru muffler. It will not be loud so that your getting pulled over for it, if anything it gave the exhaust a nice tone to it taking off.

Even right now I have no muffler with the dual srt resinators and tailpipes and its not that loud compaired to my cousins Tundra V8 with just a Flowmaster muffler in it.

[WSP Jeep]

Well im taking my Jeep to the shop to have a glasspack installed to hopefully cancel out some of this drone. Anybody used these on 3.7? Thanks

[B.P.O.D]

not me, let us know how it works out!

[WSP Jeep]

Ok my appointment is at one, its only $65 out the door so im not too concerned if it is still drones afterwards. Ill let you guys know once I get it installed.

[B.P.O.D]

awesome! def do a before and after video too!

[GCL06]

Updated video.

Now has PVC CAI, Ported/Polished Throttle Body, Power Wire, Thrush Welded muffler, removed the resonator muffler tip.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDbHDdjCPnk

[OBXJeep]

^Sounds nice Nick

[ALombardi]

this is the 3.7 with the magnaflow... (http://gallery.me.com/anthonysabamf#100017)

little video i made

[WSP Jeep]

So I had a 14" glasspack installed and the results were well worth the money. Highway and cruising drone is almost completely gone and the overall sound of the muffler was reduced by about 60%. Its still just a too tad loud for me when acclerating, but its much more tolerable. The weird thing is it seems like the Jeep is running better, maybe more back pressure?

[Chris]

Has anyone thrown a flowmaster on a 3.7 yet? I've been checking out the clips of you guys with magnaflows, and to be honest they sound a little ricey? Maybe that's not the correct term, but it sounds like a sporty car and not a SUV. I have dual magnaflows on my 4cyl mazda6 and they sound pretty much the same as some of these clips.. and I don't want my jeep to sound like my mazda, lol!

[misfit77]

Anyone know of the technical name for the exhaust flange that connects the muffler to the cat converters?

I am looking to make my own exhaust. I want it to be bolt in and still be able to put the factory muffler back if I don.t like the sound.


Is this it?

anyone heard this? any better clips of it, is it legit, sounds more like a 4.7 w/ exhaust at idle to me lol

[Ironman7]

I would check out the hooker Aerochamber line of mufflers. They sounded great on the 3.4 V6 I had in my 94 Firebird. They are a great hybrid between the straight through muffler like a magnaflow or borla and a chambered muffler like a flowmaster. I can tell you that I also LOVE the small bodied Borla that I have on my 4.0 GC. I am trying to get some video of it soon.

Hope this helps.

I have the same thing...I have a 14" Dynomax. I could have gone bigger, but plan on using a E-cutout. Sounds awesome at idle and very low speeds in the hood.

Once you step on it, it makes an awful noise. I am slightly embarassed.

When I am trying to be cool...I cruise.

[FlyinRyan]

I'd go with either a big magnaflow, or something with some baffling such as a Dynomax Super turbo, or Hooker Aerochamber, etc.

I guess I'll look into experimenting w/ a Dynomax. Stupid 3.7L shoulda got a the 4.7 when I had chance though lol, still love the baby, shes very reliable ;)

Hey Sleepy your in Jackson ehhh, I had no clue until I opened my eyes and looked at your location lol. I live in Trenton, or just outside only 30 mins or so from ya. Im down there a lot in summer cause few of my buddies are from there and its on way to shore. May have to come by your place one day and check out your place and your beast haha.

Newest Vid with the Thrush Welded muffler - takeoff and drive-by by request.

[jvs0302]

here is my magnaflow muffler on my 06wk v6http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u263/mikebones_photos/th_Picture070.jpg (http://s170.photobucket.com/albums/u263/mikebones_photos/?action=view&current=Picture070.flv)

which part# magnaflow is this?

[theycallmeBR00KLYN]

I got a Magnaflow and it's not too loud, or too quite..

[soontobesrt]

bump for GCL06s setup, I have the same Thursh muffler which is made by Dynomax I believe or they are related somehow. The comparable mufflers from Thrush are about 1/5th the price of the dynomax and give just as good of an exhaust tone and performance gains are equal as they both flow considerably more. I love it with the stock SRT8 resonators in place to eliminate that terrible drone.

Any V6 w/ a smaller oval style muffler will be loud/decent at lows rpms but any acceleration and they sound like any hondas w/ a fart can :( The resonators help dull that down and lower the tone all the way through the power band, so bump for SRT resos being sweet, they really complete the system :)

So the stock 3.7L exhaust system only has a muffler, and no resonator?

Correct. I've got the Thrush and still no resonator. I like it loud though and haven't ever had any other sort of exhaust system as the Jeep was my first vehicle (I say was but I still own it, just added a Blazer to the mix) so I can't compare the drone to anything else. It makes the 3.7 sound mean as hell :thumbsup:

def does, just too much for me at rpms, all personal choice, Ill try and get a vid for you guys soon so hopefully yes Father Paul lol.

[Alex]

I know it's wishful thinking, but I really would like my 3.7 to sound like an SRT or 5.7 HEMI, but that's not happening :lol:

[soontobesrt]

I know it's wishful thinking, but I really would like my 3.7 to sound like an SRT or 5.7 HEMI, but that's not happening :lol:

I want mine to sound like a V10 Lambo lmao, obviously not possible. Id say if you swapped your motor out for the 6.1 you could get pretty close ;)

BUT FTR - Add a nice free flowing muffler and some OEM SRT resonators and you'll get that similar low drone/grumble sound they make at idle-2.5k rpms :) After that the lack of displacement shows itself :( But keep throttle low and no one would even know haha

edit: will have vid in next few days, camera is in another location in which Ill be going to in next day or two :)

idk if its worth it lol http://www.vroombox.com/vroombox/

LMAO this is non-sense but Id love to mess with it for fun!

Website says, and I quote, "Instead of paying $500-$700 to improve the exhaust sound with an aftermarket Cat Back why not pay $159 and make your RX-8 sound like a 71’ Hemi Cuda?”

LMAO cause a rotary engine could sound even similar to an old Cuda w/ a cat-back hahahahah, silly vroombox.

[GR33N D3M0N]

Haha it is bs haha, but it would be cheaper than an exhaust system :rolleyes: haha, there's one that u can plug into the cigarette outlet, and it's an fm transmitter lol

[WSP Jeep]

Im looking to add SRT8 resonators to mine, any videos yet Soontobesrt? And do you need to add both resonators or just one? Thanks

[SickWhip]

I have the 3.7 with the dual SRT8 exhaust, no muffler, cats going to a single pipe then a "Y" back to the dual SRT pipes over the axle and the dual SRT resinators and tips. I noticed ALOT of water coming from the tips, like if im sitting in my car on lunch break there is a big puddle on the ground below the tips. Is that normal?
I want to hear this one!!

Edit: Nevermind I saw the clip on page 3!

[Marbs]

Just installed a Dynomax Thrush muffler and it sounds AMAZING. I'm hoping to get sound clip(s) soon.

[B.P.O.D]

^^^ would like to hear audio!

[Hamze]

shipment reached me today :) ... Magnaflow #12586 will be placed in the middle, and MF #12158 at the rear as a small resonator like sound refinement at the back, i will weld my MBRP 5'' exhaust tips to it... Hope this combo works well ( i want some deep tone with no drone ) when i install anytime soon.. Both exhausts are FREE flowing. they costed me 550$ shipped to lebanon :confused:

http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af79/hamzewazzi/25102010342-1.jpg



http://i995.photobucket.com/albums/af79/hamzewazzi/14102010330.jpg

[gpederson]

I went with the MF#12286 and added a 3" rolled tip on the end. I wasn't sure I was going to like the tone with the tip added but it may just be me or the sound seems to have calmed down a bit after the first 500k on it.

I am trying to find out which model is the rear one on the 5.7L Catback and possibly change the tip out for that. If any one knows which model the above is I would appreciate it.

[gpederson]

So after much playing around and trying I found the setup that works for the sound I like on the 3.7L. I tried a MF 12286 in middle with a MF 14363 and a 4" Tip. Ended up looking very similar to the MF catback system on the 5.7. Sound is a nice low tone and not overpowering even on WOT. When I get a moment i will video it and add a link.

I originally tried the 12586 with a 3" rolled tip and there was way to much drone and it was to ricey sounding for me.

[B.P.O.D]

^^^ audio???

i am going to try adding a srt reso next week to mine to get rid of my drone. if that doesn't work then i will be removing the muffler and keeping only the reso.


is there any difference between a srt reso and a hemi reso? same size? shape?

[Scottina06]

^^^ yup great advise from ryan:)


HMMMMMM....maybe not so great advise then??? No resonator fellas=DRONE!

[B.P.O.D]

haha yeah bro it drones and is annoying now, i want it to be softer too. will reso only get rid of the drone? willl it make it softer?

maybe i should remove the muffler all together and add only the reso. would that be quieter?

[Scottina06]

its hard to say cause Ive never heard the stock 3.7 exhaust with just a resonator......Ive heard one with two resonators. So you want it softer than what it is now with no drone? Maybe add the resonator with your current muffler. Add the resonator toward thee rear tip.

[B.P.O.D]

yeah i'm going ot go next week and add the reso at the back of the exhaust and keep my current muffler. hopefully axes the drone

[gpederson]

I found it much softer and lower tone with the additional reso at the back with the 4" tip. With the non stop rain we have been getting I haven't had a chance to get any video or audio yet. Hopefully this weekend.

[jvs0302]

Any chance you can provide some pics of your setup? I would like to see where you put the resonator. Also a movie would be great, I dont think I have heard a 3.7 with a magnaflow muffler AND reso. Thanks!

TimmyB's Jeep has 2 exits with reso on each. What I want to rear is 2 resos on the same exit w/o muffler.

[Scottina06]

That's the only 3.7 I know of with 2 resonators......try maybe Youtube?

My setup sounded awesome! i have the Cat converters deleted also! no drone at all, It sounds like a small block v8 at idle, and a rich deep tone from like 2000 till 4000 rpm range i like it! you are ok when you add another muffler at the back. The throttle response and gas mileage are way better..

[GR33N D3M0N]

that looks sick Hamze!! i shoulda asked if you needed any parts because im gonna be in Falesteen next week...

[Hamze]

'' Badde Saleimtak ya khayye! :) '' Try to pass by Lebanon and Let me know!

[GR33N D3M0N]

ill try haha, gonna be there for three weeks inshallah

[Megatron]

Hamze, any vids would be appreciated sir.

[iJeep]

^^ x2

[Hamze]

I loaded a video i had on my phone, i will upload an exhaust clip when i get a new camera... I have to get a cam, but i am soo lazy those days :)


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6HYckKwXS6w

[JeepKid]

Wow man, I like the way it sounds! Probably the deepest tone setup ive heard on a 3.7. Nicely Done!

[Marbs]

What does it sound like out of the garage without the walls to bounce the sound off of?

[Hamze]

that vid had been shot the same night i installed the exhausts, now it even sounds Deeper and a bit louder, as if its a small block v8 at idle. It even gets more deeper as you cruize up the rpm range till 3,500 Rpm or so, after that the small displacement can be felt, but overall the sound is awesome, and the jeep is more awake.

i am so happy with the results. The wall bounce off thing, it sounds the same also without the wall .... the phone cam doesn't do justice

[iJeep]

Sounds amazing Hamze..

[Hamze]

Sounds amazing Hamze..

Thank you brother! trust me, they sound way better in person, i got a new cam-corder, i will post some vids soon when i have time to catch a drive by vid, and some in-car vids....

it really sounds like a '' small block v8 '' at idle, People think its a V8!! it has a LOW deep tone when u cruise... and its not ricey!!. I used the biggest free flow magnaflow exhaust i can place at the middle to filter the tone as much as possible, and a small magnaflow at the rear to eliminate the drone, ( its also free flow, and not restrictive as a resonator!!! ) all tubing kept to a 2.5' front to back, + i deleted the cats and used anti-foulers.... It worked like magic.. + ZERO air flow restriction to release all trapped horses... I can feal the difference.

This is the setup i recommend, trust me, i take my time and do lots of research before i take any step... it went right from the first time :)

[Megatron]

Do you have by any chance the magnaflow model #s?

[sweetjeep99]

I have the 4.7.. I would like to go without the muffler & just go with the resonators but i don't think we can in missouri. The picky state..... I'll find out. If anybodys knows let me know. Thanks guys

[Hamze]

Brother Fabian! i just got a short sound clip as you requested, this one is how it sounds by changing gears at 2,500 RPM max, sorry camera man is 16yrs old lol

^^^Looks like a dangerous street to be speeding on, lol.

Sounds good, though maybe its my horrible hearing but to me it kinda sounds like a honda civic.dunno. someone owns an SRT8 near my office and I have no idea what they have for an exhaust but it rumbles the building when they drive by, it sounds like a muscle car.

[Hamze]

lol! its just a 3.7 Liter bro! at high RPM's the small displacement will show.... when i cruise in my jeep, my rpm's never do exceed 3000 Max ... i like the sound at low rpm's. the camera doesnt show the Low DB's , no justice...

I have a 3.7 and deleted the muffler and just have the two rear SRT resinators, and one shop put a big REJECTION sticker on. When I asked why he said I must have an exhaust leak because it sounds louder than stock. I told him its a bolt on exhaust from the srt trying to claim the resinators were mufflers and its supposed to sound that way. But he was a dick about it anyways. So I drove on over to another shop in a seedy neighboring city owned by some Asian hacks. It was almost closing time and he told me to come back tomorrow, so I told him I can't drive around with a rejection sticker, where he asked me what I got it for, so I told him it was because my brake lights failed and I just had them fixed. The kid drove my car in the bay and only checked the brake lights, which were always fine anyways, and he slapped a sticker on it.

Guess my long story short, go get it inspected at a hack shop where they install loud aftermarket exhausts and lower cars by cutting the springs. Lol

[TimmyB]

I hear ya. I tried to video the sound of this SRT setup I have, and it def sounds alot better in person than reproduced through a camera then the sound coming out computer speakers, or in my case I just listened to your clips on my cell phone.

I would luv to remove my cats, but in no way would I pass inspection where I live.

Thank you for posting it Hamze. Sounds awesome man… Maybe a little to loud for me tho. I just wonder if I should add the magnaflow 12586 as a muffler then, SRT8 resos and tips at the end. it might work well for me. We'll see.

[Hamze]

^^^ That combination will work great, less restrictive than company setup, and better in sound reduction...... the best of luck bro!

also whats the difference between the 14 and 18 inch??
im not looking for anything too crazy loud

and anything else like these with not too loud or quiet, and a lil better for my pocket? thanks :thumbsup:

sorry if im steeling the thread....

[B.P.O.D]

the smaller they are the louder they are! you want to go for oval shape and not round bc they are louder

[hella_wk]

only thing im worried about is that the 18 inch wont be loud enough.... lol :D
the ones i posted links too wwould be considered oval right??

[B.P.O.D]

yes they are oval. i personally would go wtih 5x11 and have centered inlet/outlet

[jvs0302]

^^ Yes, I'll post pics and sound clip over the weekend. Stay tune.

NICE!! Cant wait to see/hear it!

You and BPOD are in NJ right? What towns?

[crisper]

So what's the verdict fellas.....which is the best exhaust setup for the 3.7?
I think Nick's Thrush muffler or Hamze's dual muffler sounded the best of all the once i've heard....just my preference.

[JeepKid]

Here is Joe's old setup. OEM SRT exaust with Gibson muffler and resos deleted. My local shop guy said it would be easier and cheaper to simply close one of the inlets instead of Y-piping it so we did.

The camera doesn't catch the full deep sound of the idle I will get a better vid up by tomorrow. This thing is loud. I will get pics up of the setup soon as the slush is off the ground lol.

Do you think my exhaust knows it is on a 3.7? :eek:



Hahahaha nice work there dude! Enjoy!

[JeepKid]

I think its a little confused LOL seriously the idle sounds mean! I thought the camera would pick it up. Ill try again with my good camera. Lol Thanks man.

[iJeep]

Here is my sound clip.
MagnaFlow 14590 (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MPE-14590/) + OEM Jeep SRT8 pipes, resonators and tips. Nice and quiet, but you can feel it while driving.

I really like it. :thumbsup:

Alright attempt number 2 ! This time you can actually hear the kitten purr. Lol. The first rev was like to 1.5 and the second was a little over 2k. Lemme know what you guys think. I'm going to need some resos cuz the drone is pretty severe. Sorry for camera movement I suck with cameras.

[hella_wk]

THE MAGNAFLOW (12256) 5x8x18!!! is no doubt the best universal muffler for a 3.7! just got mine installed yesterday at a local shop. i couldnt be anymore satisfied! paid about 150 installed..

i first installed a flowmaster 40 series about a month ago, and i wont lie i hated it.. the sound was not appealing, so i took it off and thought i'd do without... gave magnaflow a try because i heard something about better gas mileage and more power because its a free flowing muffler.. turns out alot of this seems to be true! only thing is, dont get a chambered or (turbo) one they are cheaper and are basically the same thing as a flowmaster. or in other-words, not a free flowing muffler. i found this out after doing some research on their website.

ill try to get a sound clip up this weekend!
i couldnt believe how much deeper/cleaner the magnaflow sounded

[DAVY27]

nice Fabian! def. got to hear this in person at the next meet!

[iJeep]

^^ Absolutely.

[B.P.O.D]

fabian today no excuses swing by!!!

[iJeep]

Okay, I'll text you.

[B.P.O.D]

Good!

[DAVY27]

Irf- what setup are you using atm? From the Flushing Meadows meet, i remember your's sounded pretty good but you did say something about drone at higher rpms

[B.P.O.D]

yeah the drone does bother me, i have a reso from an srt that i have to get installed. i have a magnaflow round case 18"
magnaflow 10436

[hella_wk]

Here is my Magnaflow 12256 18" on my v6 jeep! very satisfied! and easy universal muffler to install

the video quality is not the best because its from my iphone but man does it sound good in person!

[psprat496]

Why were you not happy with your Flowmaster? I was thinking about getting a Flowmaster Super 44 but I'm still researching.

I want the closest thing I can get to that V8 sound and the Flowmaster I've been told is the best for that. Do Magnaflows not sound a bit ricier?

Why were you not happy with your Flowmaster? I was thinking about getting a Flowmaster Super 44 but I'm still researching.

I want the closest thing I can get to that V8 sound and the Flowmaster I've been told is the best for that. Do Magnaflows not sound a bit ricier?

To say the least i wasn't happy at all, it sounded like a fat can, dinosaur old muffler and had way to much drone (and i typically dont mind drone). So if you want it to sound clean get a magnaflow like mine (got it on amazon for $80 or $90 shipped) and the part number is in my signature. i love it!! and its gotten louder and deeper in the 8 months that ive had it.
NOT RICEY AT ALL!
