i need to find the best muffler to buy im going down to jrp racing tommorow and need to find out thanks

 

Catback or just plain crossflow muffler?

either will do

 

i had the american thunder flowmaster on my first z(94) it sounded nice but my z i have now which is also a 94 i went with the borla,,,,at wide open throttle i think ya cant match the sound of the borla its simply awesome,,,,,,,,,,,,,and loud as hell also

 

Well there is a big difference...Catback utilize all new 3" piping and a new muffler, where as the muffler uses the stock piping. I'd get a catback if I were you.

Some favorites on the board are:

Borla
GMMG
Hooker
Magnaflow
Flowmaster
Edelbrock
SLP
MAC
Random Tech
Corsa
and more...

ok thanks a lot anymore suggestions would be appreciated, about the borla

 

Borla makes a muffler that is a direct replacement for the stock one. Not a cat-back. I just bought one of those, but haven't installed it yet. Can't wait though. Much cheaper also. I honestly don't think there is all that much to gain from a cat-back. Doesn't the Z28 have a 3'' exhaust stock?

 

If you just get a muffler and stay with the stock pipe, go with a Flowmaster 2-chamber. If your going to get a full cat back, the best value IMO is the Hooker and it gives great sound and gains although it is aluminized. If you want a stainless cat back, go with Corsa, GMMG, or Borla. The stainless will be alot more pricey tho.

The stock pipe on our cars is 2 3/4"....I couldn't decide if you meant Borla did or didn't make a cat back by the way you put it. But just in case you thought they didn't, just wanted you to know that they do make one and it's stainless. There are also benifits to a cat back over stock pipe, about 10rwhp to be exact.

EDIT: I forgot to mention above to be sure to gut the cat for better gains as well.

 

I like the Dynomax Ultraflow. Gives a nice low rumble at idle, then wakes up at WOT. And you can see through it.
