like tootall mentioned, the round case has more of a "open cutout" noise to it...

the oval case is more of a tough muffler sound? damn im comfused on how to explain it now...
I've got a vid somewhere after changing out the knock sensors with the baby cam . . I'll dig it up

Aerochamber sounds nothing like a blowmaster scott. I still wouldn't buy one for your purpose.

Personally I'd go with the aero turbine just to do something different, but thats just me.

Scott, if you want me to install it, you better get it pretty quick, because the majority of my tools (including the welder) will be going into storage at the end of December...

Haha only if you're offering Corey, you've done more than enough for me in the past.



And I'm keeping the magnaflow just in case I don't like the sound or wanna swap back sometime in the future.

You know me, any excuse to break out the welder i am more than willing... Just remember having a tail-pipe IMO completely changes the sound of the exhaust tone and definition...

Yep, that is the kind of change I am looking for. A big reason why I want to change mufflers for running the tailpipe is because this magnaflow is dual 2.5" out. I want to run a single 3" to the stock location with a corsa tip or something similar probably.

I do have that 3"in 3"out 14" magnaflow , but I want something that won't muffle the sound as much.

that is correct... We are hoping to have the house on the market at the end of the month. So that means the garage will be cleaned out of all non-essential stuff, mean the majority of my tools, Mustang getting moved to my parents, etc... Also Katie said NO TRUCK projects until we move into a new house to limit the amount of mess that always happens... Also we are planning on moving to the Godely area, so that will also limit the majority of yall coming over due to distance, but i will have a nice shop to work out of

The house we are really looking at has a nice 30x40 shop
