I have the Banks muffler, and it makes a nice mellow burble without being intrusive.
It's just not an option anymore... unless I purchased a new one.
I actually removed the Cat and changed the Y-pipe - and GAINED mpgs with a custom tune from my dyno guy, (Pete Johnson - Concord, NH) I've gained more and driveability and throttle response is A+.
Carring, are you running a gasser?
