    I just did the 302 swap and I was wondering what kind of mufflers I wanna use, my car is a 4 door and daily driver so I don't want it sounding TOO loud. I'm gonna do dual exhaust , should I just go with something stock?

    it depends on what your definition of loud is but i would go with flowtech raptors u can pick them up at any o riellys they are pretty quiet and have a deep throaty sound when the loud petal is exercised

    Out of the performance muffler turbos seem to be the quitest, and they flow great! Almost 100 more cfm than flowmasters. But if you want quite you might be better off with stock replacement mufflers.

    I like the new Mustang mufflers. You can find take-offs on ebay. They need pipes welded into muffler, muffler shop can handle that when they fab-up your system.

    Not big on that sound. reminds me of the old turbo 400's. Has that tinny pop noise on decel.

    I got ten bucks says that Firebird couldnt make it back into the garage with that snow and those meats.LOL.
