What muffler sounds best with a 20R and a header that isn't going to break me? I don't want a poppen, snappy high pitch muffler. Low 4 cylinder rumble would be cool.

I got two 18" glass packs on my Subaru. I like the sound of that, but two of them under my Toy :rb:

If you run a cheery bomb or any muffler with no baffling you will get a ticket if you wheel ever east.
Get a 3 stage flow master--you will love it greg...

Any recommendations on places to get one at a decent price? Heck, I will even take used if it ain't wasted.
What series is the three stage?

CRASH you always thinking right, and sensibly a flow master would be a great muffler, read about it here!

Flowtech raptor turbo style muff. I have one on my 4 cyl car and it's pretty quiet. Most glasspacks I've heard are poppy on a toy.
They have them in stock a shmucks.

I ran one of these for a while and liked it, but it rusted out before I could snap my fingers. I changed over to the cherry bomb turbo II (still a chambered muffler, not a :rb: glasspack). It's louder, but it was cheap as hell and it has lasted way longer than the raptor one. This is on my Cherokee. It's the only part of the exhaust after the catalytic converter that hasn't fallen off. :redneck:
However, count me as voting for the flowmaster. I have a Delta Flow 40 series on my 4.0 Wrangler, sounds awesome... just enough throat/growl to make it fun to drive, but not at all loud and resonant on the highway (can't say that for the 20 dollar parts store mufflers). Flowmaster says the Delta Flow series is a step above the original 40 series in frequency cancelling baffling, so it makes it much better for newer cars with catalytic converters and people who don't want to get a headache from listening to a buzzing/droning exhaust all day on the highway.

I'm partial to my flow master... A 50 series I think.

I don't like the sound of my 40 series flow master. Highway speed is quiet but it's the 30-35mph when it starts resonating, this is in a GC, 4.0 without a cat.
I do like the construction of the FM, very strong and will probably get a "quieter" series when the CJ is ready for exhaust.

i've heard the 50 series are pretty quiet, i'll be in the market for a better exhaust on my '79 soon. i rigged up a temporary setup (glasspack with a downturn off the header pipe) when i installed my header, it's too goddamn loud and the resonation makes your head feel like it's gonna explode.

50 series is where it is at if you are confined on space...3" in 3" out...just right.
70 series BIG BLOCK muffler is the ticket if you do NOT have room issues. I love that muffler as I ran one on my Scout II. So deep...yet never really heard it.
I will have my 50 Series there at the clean up next weekend if you are going...Red Scout with flames.

So, it sounds like the 50 series is the ticket. I will start looking for one that is decently priced.

40 series flowmaster with 2.25 exhaust with a good 3-4 inch tip will sound real nice.
