Need some advice for 3” mufflers to tame a 427w
Posted by ForeskinForeman@reddit | projectcar | View on Reddit | 9 comments
I have a Pantera, it is extremely loud. The exhaust is about 2.5’ long and it sounds kinda like a boat, which I do not like. There is no room for an x pipe because I intend to keep the trunk functional. The exhaust is a glorified straight pipe. I am planning to use either magnaflow or stainless bros mufflers, with acerace tubing and bellows. I need the quietest mufflers I can get that are 18-20” in length, 3” inlet and ideally dual 2.5” outlet. Any insight is appreciated.

Talk to Dennis at Pantera Performance. Their website is trash so you have to call. They have some options other than the Ansa glasspacks that look really nice and fit the car.
But it's a Pantera. If it doesn't sound like it just came off the track of Le Mans, what's the point.

Do you happen to know much about their cv axles? I wish the website was a bit better. It m not in the market at this moment but the Pantera vendor scene is unfortunately an aging crowd and I’m worried about the future of everyone.

The Ansa muffs are insanely over priced.

I was running 3” vibrant ultra quiet resonator and a dynomax ultra Flo muffler 3” on my catless WRX. Tamed the exhaust very well but still loud when you floor it. It was very deep tone. It used to sound like a fart can with other setups.

No advice on a muffler, but jealous as hell of your Pantera.

That is the one I am considering. I prefer the sound of mufflers with packing.
