Dynomax muffler - some questions

[BigSwede]

IMO 3" is way too big for a V6. Dunno what your stock pipe is, but in your shoes I would go 2.5"...in fact I had a 17748 on my old 99 Trooper (same 3.5L as a VX, although honestly the 2.25" would work fine too based on size charts at Dynomax). I liked it a lot. So much that I put a 17747 on my current 93 Trooper (went with the smaller 2.25" for the smaller 3.2L). Neither one droned on the highway, BTW. Nice mellow throb at idle, you can hear it on acceleration but it is not noticeable at cruise.

Thanks for the reference. Yeah, I'm looking at the 17748 right now as well for the VX. I liked the sound based on Rickshaw's media clip. Not too loud at idle, but sounds mean during full throttle.

So I'm hoping the 17748 should fit well w/ the stock pipes.
