exhaust for a turbo ccar

[stangdriven]

so just wondering what muffler sounds the best, meanest and loudest on a turbo'd car... figure 3 inch all the way...

Are you doing a single or twin turbo?
If you are going single turbo are you going from 3" down pipe and y-ing off to dual exhaust?
I am running flomaster 10 series race mufflers on my turbo stang. If I were you whatever you do, go with a muffler that is a straight through design and doesn't have any chambers or baffles so you don't have any major backpressure on the turbo, you could also run mufflers but run a 3" cutout before you y the single to duals and uncap it whenever you go to the track.
Or since the turbo acts as a big muffler and you really want it to sound mean and like a major beast just run straight downpipe!

well i should have probably specified it is a v6 car... but yea.. it would be a single turbo and y pipe ... ....... yea open downpipe to the duals... that would be loud and beastly...

 

[BLOWN 95GT]

I know I saw that you posted in the v6 specific but no mater, you would still want the least restrictive exhaust so either a straight through muffler or straight pipe off the down pipe. And run an open wastegate instead of running it back into the exhaust run it open and it will sound sick and you will have a little more power.

ok sweet... and yea i would have figured it out sooner or later bout the wastegate lol ... im not one for being quiet with my car...but thank you for the info and help man...

ill be running a single 3" pipe from the down pipe to the drivers side before the rear axle with a dynomax race bullet.....really wanted an slp muffler but i didnt find one for cheap until right after i bought mine-_-

 

[stangdriven]

now without a muffler or cat... and having the turbo... does it really affect the boost when it fully comes on?

 

[BLOWN 95GT]

You can run a muffler or muffler's if you want but if you don't run a straight thru design like this http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MPE-12619/
and you run something that is chambered you will be leaving a lot of power on the table because you will have to much backpressure on the turbo. Or you could run a 3" cut out in the exhaust like this http://www.summitracing.com/parts/BIG-53030FLT/

Y-pipe=looks & sound.....straight pipe=power!!!

 

[stangdriven]

I love my Flowmaster 10's on my NA V6 and they will sound great for you. Take a look at, or consider the straight thru Pypes M-80 muffler, they sound great. BUT- I think the ultimate set up would be MAC BoomTube's. <br>BoomTube Video:[video=youtube;jtICKSuNZ5c]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtICKSuNZ5c&amp;amp;feature=player_detailpage[/video]<br>

those boomtubes dont sound bad at all... pretty nice really ...

A SOHC will sound different than a pushrod with the same mufflers. Just throwing that out there to think about.

 

[stangdriven]

hey hey lilroush whats up buddy.... and yea i realize that bout the different motors to sound... just saying thats all...

And.... I heard a V6 turbo with M-80 mufflers that I thought sounded incredibly sick, loved them too.
