I need your advice on mufflers.

hey there I am looking to replace the exhaust on my galant. I dont quite know where to start I dont have much to spend but i dont want to get something real cheap and get screwed. I have looked on ebay and they have them ranging from about 10 bucks to 150 but I dont wasnt to go really cheap and get some stupid obnoxious muffler. How do i choose? I could use some suggestions if you have any or if anyone has a used muffler for a good price please let me know.or if anyone has experience with those cheap ebay mufflers good or bad i want to know.

Magnaflow.

Magnaflow as a first choice...Dynomax as a second. Have had both on my car....both reliable, neither sounds like a fart can.

good thats great now its time to do some shopping and not on ebay.

Awesome tone. I'm going to assume thats a 4 cylinder, how would it sound on a V6, deeper???

Hey shi04ES, Do you have a video of how it sounds?

or just get the ebay full cat back
its 140 and i love how it sounds

Apexi WS Muffler, great look and sound. Worth the money.

Didnt even have to cut the bumper, it was a perfect fit.

I would avoid at all possible costs on buying a cheap Ebay muffler...I have seen those things literally fall apart. I have seen and heard a few Magnaflows, and they sound pretty good. I personally have a Blitz Nur Spec on my 7g and a Apexi N1 on my Galant VR4 and I am very happy with both. I used to have a Meagan N1 style on my Galant VR4 when I first bought the car...the previous owner bought it so I can have a muffler on the car on its drive to Florida. I was impressed with the Megan muffler and the sound was good.

what about hks .

There are exhaust suggestions all over this board....but my short summary of quality non-ebay replica brands since I wanna help:

Borla - ok I'm biased but hear my car and you will love it too...
Magnaflow
Megan
HKS

Damn thats a really nice muffler! i really like the OE looks, thats the muffler im getting.

i have a magnaflow and it has a nice deep sound doesnt sound like a lawnmower lol

Muff

.. why is this under 9G?
im no help tho. i spent $435 to get high flow, full stainless, bolt on made for my car..
(the first and only i know of to be made specifically for the 9G)

greedy evo1 exhaust here, i love it stright 2.5 piping y pipe back

When I go to magnaflow's site, they don't offer a muffler for 9g's... so how is it that you guys are saying you like magnaflows so much? Unless I missed something...

I'm wanting to get a nice low rumble without being obnoxious or sounding like a go kart... but I have no idea about mufflers or the difficulty putting one on.

Help? Suggestions?

there is nothing but what i have thats made for the 9g. the guys talking about magnaflow are either 7 or 8g. orrrr had something custom made.

I may have missed something... but between Magnaflow, and all the others... I'm not finding a single muffler that is for a 9g. So.... ?

I'm running into the same problem with intakes.

I think you would need a Eclipse 4G catback to modify it, or many of us just use a muffler, a Magnaflow with Tip
For Performance mods you need to use 4G eclipses parts 06-present

I have a Magnaflow cat back exhaust system with 2 1/4 inch piping on my 7G and I love it!

do u have a V6 engine?

It's just a universal muffler and then you get the custom piping made at the muffler shop.

Megan muffler actually sounds pretty good I've searched it on YouTube. Particularly the Megan GT.

reeeeeeeeeeeead the words that are coming out of my computer.
there is no cat back system made for the 9g galant. i have, on my car, the ONLY axle back exhaust made for the 9g. if you want the same thing, i can set that up for you. but it doesnt come cheap.
you can always use a universal muffler, which is what most people do for the 9g.
the stock piping is big enough. so all you need is a muffler and high flow cat.

as for intakes. like OMEGA said. you need to search for the 06+ eclipse. my suggestion is fugita. its well made and the least expensive.

get a megan muffler there is carbon fiber looks good and its only 120+ shipping its on ebay and get it custom fit like cat back to your loco shop..its gonna be all in all 300+ its not bad at all,,

I know this is a little off topic but did you ever think of a full catback system? Here, check this out.
