Muffler Options Dynomax -Magnaflow-Flow Master

[sensazngen]

I'm looking to swap out my OEM mufflers for sound. I have read through some threads that some have gone with the Dynomax VT but have seen conflicting part numbers. Has anybody switched to Dynomax Muffler or Magna Flows on their 5.0? If so what are your thoughts, satisfaction, or dissatisfaction? If you don't mine can you share the part number off the mufflers you went with? I went with Magnaflows on my Accord HFP and have been very satisfied with it. Thanks in advanced.

I have AERO mufflers on mine, with an x-pipe. If I start it up in a garage, a car alarm goes off. Sounds very deep until you step on the gas. Then it gets a bit raspy. I would compare the exhaust note to that of a C63 AMG, except a little louder.

The downside is drone...There's a lot of it when you're in ECO and regular drive mode. Sport mode sounds the best but will definitely kill your gas mileage

Take it to your local muffler shop and see what they can do for you.

Interesting I've never heard of Aero. Wow! I bet your ride sounds mean. I do like the sound that the AMG's make but probably don't want to go that loud. Wouldn't mine being loud when I hit it but drone drives me crazy. Thanks for the info and sharing your set up. Do you have any sound clips?

Very nice. That sounds really good. I wonder of I did the same mufflers and not did the x-pipe I would not have the drone. Are you planning to reduce/eliminate the drone or are you going to leave as is? Thanks again for sharing. It does sound amazing.

Thanks! The X-pipe actually did nothing for sound lol. It wasn't until the mufflers were deleted and replaced did the true V8 sound come out. Also, the X-pipe would be giving you gains, versus a muffler delete for just sound.

The drone only bothered me the first 5-10 minutes of having it done. I wasn't use to it since the car was so quiet beforehand. Also, this is not my daily driver. It COULD be annoying if you were daily driving it. The sound is worth it for me. I would highly recommend getting an X-pipe with Aero mufflers. If you JUST do an X-pipe with a muffler delete, it'll sound like one of those annoyingly loud mustangs.

I see. Yes, this car has to be the quietest car that I have owned. This is my daily driver and I have about a 40 minute commute each way so the drone would drive me bananas. Can you feel the performance gain with the x-pipe and muffler after you installed it? Thanks again for the info. Much appreciated.
