Default Which mufflers?

Which mufflers?
Doing new exhaust on my SC400, just wondering which mufflers to go with. I don’t want that load reverb sound when I go down the highway but yet when I stand in it I want it to have that deep throb sound. I just don’t want loud all the time. What do you guys recommend?

there are tons of them, I had HKS hi-power on my SC4, and it is suprisingly quite during cruise.. but deep sound when you WOT!

Are these the same universal HKS muflers you can buy for under $50 each? or am I looking at the wrong thing?

I hope you are not looking at Ebay. My universal muffler cost me over $300. But they are great! I give them a 10!

There might be other sites that sell them for a bit cheaper but I cant think of any at the moment. HorsePowerFreaks is pretty cool.

I am also about to purchase two universal HKS hi power mufflers running a little over $200 a piece . Here are some links: racespecialists.com, hopupracing.com, and 500whp.com.


Quick Reply: Which mufflers?
