Muffler Brands


There are essentially two types of people in the market for mufflers. They are looking for different things and how they choose between muffler brands is very different.

The first type of muffler buyer is just your average driver. Performance is not an issue and the only real requirement is quiet. For these people, the “best” muffler brands are going to be production brands used for average new cars. To a large extent, it does not matter what brand they choose as modern standard mufflers are relatively equal in performance, price and durability. If they want to shop for a specific brand because it makes them feel that they are doing the right thing, their best bet is heading to auto magazines that review car parts.

The second type of muffler buyer with more complicated needs are those looking for a muffler for a performance vehicle. This group of muffler buyers often finds its collective head spinning when faced with choosing between MagnaFlow mufflers, Genie exhaust systems and Manumatic exhaust components and a boatload of other high performance exhaust options. This set must look first at sound and performance before seeking muffler advice.

Sound is a crucial issue for the performance car enthusiast. Part of the joy of having a souped up ride is people knowing you have a souped up ride. The deep intimidating rumble of a big bore engine idling and the angry whine of a small bore taccing out are both badges of honor among the performance vehicle set.

Performance itself is another consideration. For anyone who plans to push a vehicle, every single horsepower that can be gained may be the difference between joy and disaster. A racing vehicle with just a tiny boost in top end speed could flash across the finish line first, while one without that boost could be just another number in the pack. An offroad vehicle with that same extra boost could find the driver letting out a rebel yell as the vehicle powers through a bog or sand pit while the driver of a vehicle without could be stuck in the middle of the obstacle making a humiliating call for help.

For performance minded people, the best way to choose between the many performance muffler brands available is to consult someone who builds performance vehicles professionally. Such an individual has likely seen a variety of mufflers in a variety of applications and can steer someone in the right direction. Relatively speaking, the performance gains of a tuned exhaust system are minor, but anyone who really wants to get the most out of a vehicle would be wise to get an expert to help pick the best from the many muffler brands available.

Muffler Design and Sound Absorption Strategies

Image
Aftermarket enthusiasts wade through distracting piles of advertising media. Digital or paperbound, there’s usually more hype than anything else locked inside the promotional literature. How do we separate engineering science, the real performance gains, from the wily publicity brochures? Maybe, just this once, all of the available styles and types of aftermarket exhaust systems are muddying the waters. What’s needed is a strategy, a muffler design and sound absorption game plan. A Noise-Based Muffler Design Strategy The top exhaust system brands make their performance gains a reality, but they’re sometimes a little coy when it comes to explaining the engineering methods behind the product. You start your strategy with a shortlisting process, a way of putting your thoughts on paper. What do you want the muffler to do? Is there a sound profile you want to emulate? Yes, you want to absorb the sound, but you also probably want to tune the noise until it reproduces a legendary ...

The Three Types of Pipes and their Differences: X-Pipe, H-Pipe and Y-Pipe

Image
A glimpse at the different X-Pipe, H-Pipe , and Y-Pipe exhaust system configurations has a novice scratching his head. What’s with all the form factor conventions? Does one perform better than the other? Then, aside from the shapes, there are other differences to scrutinise. Let’s check out the three pipe configurations, their unique qualities, and the reasons for the flow alterations. Exhaust Systems as Characters   There’s not a whole alphabet of welded tubes in the shop, all waiting to be bolted to a car’s underside. No, there’ll never be an A-to-Z of flow shaping pipework. But the X-Pipe , H-Pipe , and Y-Pipe aftermarket product range do have an important place in the exhaust gasses channeling field. Primarily tasked with creating distinctive flow patterns, this is a mid-pipe exhaust stream management system , one that unleashes vehicle horsepower. How do these three pipe types pull off that impressive objective? Crossover Engineered Exhaust Principles   When...

Tips in Choosing the Best Motorcycle Exhaust for Your Classic Big Bike

Image
Classic big bikes are purebred beasts. You know the ones we’re talking about, right? We’re talking about the vintage motorcycles that defined an era. Strictly speaking, the fat-engined bikes are outdated, but aftermarket aficionados still have a special place in their hearts for timeless classics. Now, personal bias aside, here are some tips for choosing the best motorcycle exhausts for your classic big bike. Big Bikes Have Never Had It So Good Veteren motorcycles are enjoying something of a revival. Nonetheless, they were built at a time when carbon emissions weren’t an issue. Petrol, gasoline to some of our readers, was just an endless fuel source. Today, things are a little different, so your classic motorcycle must accommodate modern emission guidelines. Say No to Scrapped Parts There are scrapyards and specialist forums out there, but should you be using these resource? Second-hand parts aren’t always the optimal solution, not when they’ve been exposed to the...
