Who is running 2 mufflers in series?
#11
My setup: 04 SSS h/c Radix'd Lq9 Pacesetter LT's Dual 3" to single 4" Magnaflow deisel catback.The og muffler was a 30" , I added a 12" long bullet,still to loud and alot of drone.I finally added another round 16" Magnaflow after the axle (spare tire locaton) and it still was LAF and droned.
Notes..no cats 2 mufflers , 1 resonator=loud/drone..
Get a 4" diesel Corsa or newer 6.2 oem muffler and drive headache free! the end...

I cut one open not long ago, not a great flowing muffler but it does support 400 oe hp.
I ran my arh's and the oe muffler without the resonator for a month before I put the m/flow on.
Oe baffles rattled, muffler sounded like a flowmaster. thinny, buzzy

Yeah, that doesn't sound good at all. I'm beginning to think that finding a straight through muffler to meet my goals is going to be near impossible. I think I'll go hit up some good exhaust shops around here and see what they have to offer.

i was running the 36" 7" round magnaflow, and it was pretty good, sounded like a diesel. its straight through, not baffeled.
I changed my exhaust a month or so ago to use 2x 6" round 14" magnaflows, and one 5x11x22 magnaflow. dual 3" to single 4"

I haven't looked at them for a while, so I don't know if they still sell them, but you might check out an Edelbrock RPM muffler. I haven't heard one on a V8 but I had one on my 94 Sonoma with the Vortec 4.3 and it sounded good. It's essentially a straight-through muffler but the path splits into 2 paths inside the muffler and then comes back together (you can still see through the muffler).

This is what I had to do to keep the strait thru performance and cut down on the drone and it worked ,and sounds really good, nice and deep and still loud at WOT.
