    Question Which Morgan-Tec muffler do I want?

    Hi all,

    You're all smarter than me. Which Morgan-Tec muffler do I want? Just tell me and I'll buy it. I'm easy that way.

    Single in single out? Single in dual out? Dual in single out? Dual in dual out?

    Stainless or mild steel?

    Which inlet tubing size? 2.25 inches, 2.5 or 3.0?

    Which outlet tubing size? 2.25 inches, 2.5 or 3.0?

    My thoughts: nobody will really SEE the muffler, so would the $20 Stainless Steel upgrade cost be better spent elsewhere? Do larger outlet tubes mean MORE noise or less? Or is it just for looks?

    Also: everyone says this, but I mean it: I DON'T want a farty rice-rocket sound...I want a meaty, throaty, mean old growly sound. Mainly I just want some extra horses, though.

    Ideas? Thoughts?

    Awesome questions, I was ready to post this very thread myself in about a month.

    Can't wait to see some opinions.

    anything you can get.. last i heard morgan-tec isnt making parts anymore

    i was gonna go with a 2.5 single in single out with extra baffles to keep volume down

    i also remeber reading somewhere that the position of your muffler relative to the exhaust tip will change your sound some.... dont remember how but i think it was the closer your muffler is to the exhaust tip the louder its going to be

    Thumbs up

    I've had a morgan-tec stainless on for about 2 years now and I love it. Single in / Dual out 2.25" and I also had him weld some extra baffles inside to soften it. Great workmanship.

    Arrow

    I don't want to bum anybody out but my understanding is he will not be offering mufflers any more - he changed jobs and they were not as forgiving to his other 'business'. We had been working on a custom muffler for the ML and after 2 prototypes he had to call it quits.
