Looking for a quiet muffler

mr2_guy · 07-01-2008, 02:26 AM

I brought my Mr2 used, which came with a after market muffler, is pretty loud, and since I can't seem to find a stock one around my area, I'm looking a other muffler that isn't so loud.

So any suggestions?

What kind of aftermarket muffler?

I'll trade you.

Honestly you're going to have to just go to the auto parts store and pickup something the size you want from the OEM replacement rack for another car and just get someone to fab up a system... Anything aftermarket is going to be kind of loud.

... get the oem muffler. dont fab up crap from other cars, get whats supposed to be on there, toyota did a pretty good job from the factory.

Not the best picture, but here what it looks like, I'll try to get a sound clip of it, and better pictures.

And yes my car is N/A

ewww fugly..... (the muffler not the car lol) But i have never liked the fart can type mufflers or when they stick out like that.

Oh you should be able to get a close to stock AFM muffler I know i can still get them from autozone for my mk1. I wouldnt see why they dont them for the mk2.

It may or may not be cheaper then a toyota OEM replacement from lithia tho i'd check before buying OEM is the best stuff. Plus it adds to resell value

mr2_guy, where are you located? I asked about stock exhaust systems in the regional forum once and turned out there was half a dozen of 'em available.

i cant even drive though san jose without running over 50 stock mufflers!

you're not looking hard enough man. you're basically smack dead in the middle of a gagillion used mr2 parts. call up aggressive performance, i bet su either has one, or can get you one.
