Power sticks are just too loud for me... I have 26" power sticks that have less than 500 miles on them. Just too much.

I loved the sound of the magnaflow but that thing fell apart. I dont want to buy a full system as I only need mufflers.

How does the stock muffler sound with bassani's and catless mids? Anyone have a sound clip? Will the stock muffler hold up?

Wish I new what mufflers the previous owner put on mine....But they are some sort of 36 in glass packs ---sounds pretty good with very little droan in the cab.

When MagnaFlow first made our cat-backs they were of higher quality, i.e better materials and workmanship!

I don't know what happened :( I bought mine in the second part of '04...Aug.

No problems with the welds or anything else, sounds great, running what you posted, no cats and Bassani's.

So if you can fine one (muffler) that was made early, before '05 :confused:

I know... The older ones seem to hold up... How do you figure out an older one from the newer ones? Plus, you can't just buy the magnaflow muffler with the entire CB system.

I have my stock muffler.. Before I put it in, I want to know what it sounds like. Right now, the power sticks are way too loud.
 
I have the stock Borla muffler in my garage. I put on 26" Powersticks too, but I like the way they sound. I'm running Gibson headers, but still got all my cats. If you wanna trade my Borla muffler for your sticks let me know. I could use em on my 62.

EDIT: I just saw your reply about how you still have your stock muffler. But if you're still interested in the Borla, let me know.

The Borla was on there from the dealer and I took it off at 18,000 miles 3 years later. Physically it still looks pretty good. I'll try and dig it up soon and post a pic or 2.
 
Power Sticks too high pitched and raspy for my liking. I think I lost some low end torque as well due to no back pressure.

I like a deeper tone.. I think the magnaflow with catless mids and headers sound awesome. I love the pop on decel that magnaflow gives you too...

Take a pic of the borla, if you are able.. Great. My power sticks are tack welded on so I will have a shop take them off properly for trade or resale later.
 
Hey guys I have the complete stock muffler from the exhaust manifold to the Tips. I bought Billy Boat Headers, catless mids with cutouts and B&B Catback.
My stock muffler has only 8k miles dont know if anyone is interested.

might try an X pipe, venom power didn't like the powersticks either but had an x pipe put in and now it sounds great, think he has headers and catless mids also

sounded pretty good to me. thats how I had it for a while. i never really liked the magnaflow sounds.
 
Sorry for taking so long, but here are the pics of my stock Borla mufflers. Keep in mind, they are pretty dirty.

Let me know if you're interested.
 
I haven't heard anything else about my Borla muffler. If no one is interested, it's going to be sold to a fellow member who wants it. Just wanted to leave on here for a while first since you were the first guys I mentioned it to.

Mine was catless with stock muffler and sounded great to me AFTER I put in the crossover pipe
