volvo s70 glt exhuaust
I have a 2000 s70 glt turbo with 95000 miles all stock and i want to change my muffler only, what would sound best? i like super 44 flowmaster and borla but need some opinions, thanks mitch
Ok well just adding a muffler will not give you performance. It will only give you sound.
If you want performance your going to want to do a full catback system at the least. Which means...
1. 2.5" mandrel bent catback system with a free flowing straight through design muffler such as a BORLA or Magnaflow. You want the most free flowing exhaust you can get so a Flowmaster muffler wont be any good since they use baffles inside the muffler.
2. If you really want performance and sound then your going to want to do a 3" mandrel bent downpipe to a 2.5" mandrel catback system with a free flowing straight through design muffler such as a BORLA or Magnaflow.
Now you say why not full 3" all the way back. Do you plan for supporting mods to support the full 3" which is usually done when you do a turbo upgrade to something bigger. Like say going from 13g to a 16T or bigger. If your just upgrading you exhaust system option one and or two will do you well.

1. I don't know your budget. I don't know what you like in the looks depatment.
I mean go with the XR-1 series muffler. You should be able to find one that fits in any of their series.
2. Your just going to have to find out on your own which one will fit. local exhaust shop should be able to help you out.
Again you will not, I repeat will not gain any performance from just adding a muffler. All that you will get again all that you will get is sound.
