I'm really close to fabbing my own with a dynomax vt 3" feeding into a stock location crossover. Since the crossover muffler is long gone on my car, can someone show pics of the mounting used by the stock muffler? I've searched all over and found nothing.

Does this help?

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Two words. Straight through.

I don't feel the need for conversation to fill the silence :D

That's why I have no radio in my GN. The Pitbulls barking at WOT are music to my ears. :rock:

Same on my Monte.  Loudest mufflers ever... 133dB IIRC.

That's what I have on my ATR single shot, except it was called a Race Magnum back then.

    Bad part is that it killed off some whistle but didn't make the car quieter.

If it's ever off, I'll put putting a piece of stainless and a couple band clamps in its place.

I thought about going the 4" route, but I want it to be quiet so we can drive the car for more than an hour without being sick of it. That is really the main thing that I miss from when the car was stock.

Yes it does... sort of. I can't picture how those mount to the factory mounts that are still on my car, though I can very confident that I could fab those up.

I think you'll be happy with the RJC setup.  I was surprised at how quiet it was after looking thru the muffler and then installing it
