I am needing a new muffler and was thinking of puttin on a flowmaster like i put on my mustang but i am wondering about the sound. I know it wont sound as nice as on a v8 but does anyone know anyone who has done this thanks.

might sound a little like a hornet...but im not sure of what muffler on a 4 cylinder wouldn't...i've got a flowmaster on my 4.0 and it sounds awesome but i dont know about your 4 cylinder...i know that "lcpl Konicki" has one on his 4 clydiner so maybe u could send him a pm and ask him how it sounds

oh and one other thing...if your just needing a new muffler you could just go with a pacesetter...it sounds about like stock and you can barely hear it so if your just lookin for a new one then you could go with that...ya wouldnt have to worry about it soundin bad cuz you can barely hear it

Just don't presume that because it sounds like a trumpet on a 1.6L honda that it'll sound the same on a 2.5L TJ motor ;) The 2.5l's piston displacement is gonna be the same as a Ford 302/5.0 liter. It'll sound like a 4 cylinder, but a good 4 cylinder (something like you'd hear on 4 cyl baja buggies.... but probably not as aggressive due to the stock cam). The main thing I'd recommend is to make sure there's a bit of exhaust tubing after the muffler - this will preven it from sounding too poppy and give it a bit more of a rumble.

Hey Jbone303 i have an 97 TJ with a banks header and a flowmaster muffler, Yes Bigjeep is right it sounds like a P.O. bumble bee. Thats what all my buddies tell me when i pass by them. But all in all i like the sound i think sounds unique...lol.If ya got any questions ill try my hardest to help ya out as much as i can.

bluvikng...how does the hushpower sound on your YJ?? what engine does your YJ have?
Sounds louder than the clip.........lol.......they put dule exhaust on it, and I have a fuel injected Chevy 350 under the hood. As they told me, every one will know when I am coming through the canyon. I did not want it that loud, but that is what they put on it. Here is a picture of it.
