Muffler Question:

[mackkcam]

hi Guyz,

Just want to ask if what good Muffler can you suggest, medyo parang racing ung tunog, pero not that pricey, have heard of Nodalos and Mufflerland, pero anu ang the best? how about jasma mufflers? gusto ko kc ung hollow ung tunog, pero matining, tyka iingay lng pag mataas na ung RPM, hindi ung kahit nakaIdle is maingay (mahuhule ako pag tinakas ko, hehe)

Need help, thanks guys

jasma mufflers are ok.

i have used two aftermarket mufflers in the past which are quiet while idling, but gives off a good sound if you are in high revs. the first is Zebring, while the second one is a powerflow muffler from nodalos.

[mackkcam]

would it make the exhause freeflow? any good specifications for the Mufflers you have said?

what are the good stuffs, or Users review for the Jasma mufflers? any differences from the aftermarket mufflers? in LA cars i think they have tsude? correct me if im wrong sir Amrit

[niky]

JASMA or local, the sound will depend on the design.

Mufflerland has local mufflers that have a nice tone but aren't so pricey.

Wherever you buy, make sure that the interior wall is a fine grade mesh without drill tailings or lots of welds hanging in the airflow. The bigger and longer the can (the body of the muffler), the deeper the tone.

If you've got a 1.6 liter engine, don't go bigger than 2". If you've got a 2.0 or bigger, don't go bigger than 2.5". Only get a 3" muffler if you've got a turbocharged car. ;)

how bout if i have 1.3 engine?
and also, have called up muffler land, and they only got imitations, pero pricey pa rin, target ko lng sana is 3-4k, hindi maingay, pero pag high rev, naiingay na

[niky]

3-4k mufflers are mostly crap... drilled cans with cheap pipe material, and poor flow. If you're going to buy a muffler, spend good money the first time.

I went the cheap muffler route once (though 6k ain't cheap), had to ditch it for a better muffler because it made no flow and sounded terrible.

My cousin did that, too... a 3.5k muffler that he eventually upgraded to a better one.

If you really want a quality muffler, go for a secondhand JASMA... anything else in your price range is mostly junk.

its true!just like mine,get it for 2,5T,nagrust na yung mesh inside,pero yung outside is pure stainless.Inalis ko na yung mesh inside,now tunog nya pupugak pugak

[mackkcam]

so Anu ang preferrable? san ba merong Jasma Muffler? and anung sukat ang bbgay sa 1.3 engine, how much naman kaya aabuting ang bnew at 2ndhand ng jasma? meron kc sa Mufflerland mga imitation ng branded tpos may Oval din...

[zero]

tunog lang ba bro ang habol mo?
kasi considering na 1.3 engine, baka humina pa lalu ang hatak ng makina at baka lumakas pa sa fuel consumption ang resulta nito? karamihan kasi sa market natin na nagbebenta ng pang-racing mufflers, malalaki ang diameter nito.

[niky]

Ideally, it should be a muffler with a 1.75" inlet... but I guess the smallest good muffler you can get is about 2".

JASMA - Japanese market mufflers... some of which are very quiet but flow very well... but be warned when buying secondhand Japanese mufflers! Not all of them are built the same... some are still very loud (typically big tube, small can or body) and some are notorious for rusting, also.

[mackkcam]

are there issues ba with 1.3 engine, hindi naman actually tunog ang gus2 ko, part of lng, pero atleast may magbabago ba sa performance?

tyka anu ang preferrable na Muffler/s for my type of Car?

[niky]

Any free-flow will do. It depends on whether you're going to change your whole exhaust or not. You might want to go too big, though... 1 7/8" might be what's best.

A muffler alone won't do much... you need to change everything to get more power... and even then, it might not be enough. I had a 1.3 once with a full kit, Intake, headers, midpipe and muffler. It was still slow as molasses compared to a 1.6. A GrupoToyota member has gone even further with his, he's gotten cam work done... but all it does is make it a little quicker, but not as quick as a 1.6...

The one good thing about a 1.3? With the lighter weight of the 1.3 model versus most others (1.3s are usually stripped of amenities and have less weight in front (smaller engine block), a well-done 1.3 is nice to fling about on a race-track.

In other words, don't sweat it... it might be best to concentrate your modifications on more useful stuff, like lightweight mags and good tires.

ahhh ganun pala yun...

akala ko dati the muffler is just for sound and porma hehe

[mackkcam]

meaning? wag ko muna ipush na mag Muffler? naka Mags na naman ako, skirts, chin at sa rear, pati racing grill Muffs na lng kulang ko, tpos ipon mode para sa Audio eh,

So anu tlga ang preferrable na muffler/s for 1.3 engine?

[niky]

If you're not after performance and only want the sound? Get a chambered JASMA muffler or a fat local one. Make sure the inlet isn't any bigger than 2". Good luck!
