At a local cruise night last night, I run into a guy with an '06 GT. As he's backing into his spot, it sounds like he's got a set of GTA mufflers on it. I'm looking at his exhaust and notice his Magnaflow exhaust tips. I ask him how he likes the mufflers and if he has any problem with droning. He says no problem at all but that his exhaust isn't exactly what it seems. I take a look under the car and he's got no mufflers. He had a custom pipe bent from the axle back and had the tips welded on. He's got the stock cats and the stock H pipe. Only thing is, no mufflers. He starts it up again and I can't believe what a nice mellow sound it had. Very close to the GTA's.

I'm scratching my head as to why it wasn't loud. The Borla stingers are much louder and they are mufflers. Here he's got none and it's not loud at all and sounds great. Can someone please explain? Thanks.

I know what you mean. A friend has had his re-worked to cener exhaust with no muffler. Same result, sounds nice, not as loud as you'd expect. is this safe or good for car?

I would say he might have fabbed up his own mid-muffler system, or stuck in resonators somewhere. I wish I could have heard it.

When I bought my 07, the previous owner had taken the stock axle back and cut the mufflers out and welded in pipe to replace them. The car was quite loud and raspy.

Did the same thing to my 97 Gt. I assume he didn't go WOT under load, cause then you would have noticed he didn't have any mufflers on.
