dual exhaust question

fearfact · 11-12-2005, 04:41 PM

alright guys... i just got the titan last week and plan to swap out to dual exhaust... i really like the magnaflow look and sound ( they have a video and sound of titan with it on their site).. i know it s agood product, pricey though.. i thought about borla, had it on a car before and loved it, but didnt hear it on a titan... thought about going to banks but its a single outlet and i want duals... whats the best dual exhaust out there, and whats everyones opinions.. i want a cat back kit i can do myself, dont want to get into custom brewed, want quality outta the box... also am getting an intake soon, thinking volant or aem.... feedback on this too would be great..thanks

I replaced my muffler with a magnaflo stainless steel muffler and left everything else alone....it cost me about $80 and 2 hours of rolling around on the ground and sounds great...not too loud and not too quiet. It's kinda like Goldie Locks said once she climbed into Baby Bears bed......"just right".

Oh yea, I also installed a K-N drop in filter and butchered up my stock box with a Drimmel tool in an attempt to allow more airflow. I'll probably get one of those fancy aftermarket intakes someday just because I like the look of the shiney tube.

Do you want performance or sound? Or balance between the two. I'm on my number two Titan (04 & 05). I had a 70 series Flowmaster on my 04. It gave more horsepower at take off, but was loud in the cabin. As for the 05 I placed a flowmaster 50 series a lot less noise and much more horsepower on the top-end. and yes from the Cats back is what you want to do. True dual exhaust has improved my gas mileage. On the Highway I get 410 mile per tank of gas. Good luck on you mod. And enjoy your Titan.

By "true duel exhaust", are you talking about eliminating the "Y" pipe and using two mufflers, or are you calling a single inlet/ duel outlet muffler a "true duel exhaust"?

I did a custom true dual with magnaflow XLs for $400 out the door. Cheap and works great.
