Racing Beat muffler
Thinking of doing a custom exhaust (can get a real good price on piping), and was contimplating what muffler to use. I know that RB is the quietest and that is what i want. So can you buy just the RB muffler with out the whole setup? If not is there any other dual tip muffler that would work and hold up to the rotary heat?

Hey I have a pretty old racing beat single that "rusted" through prior to the muffler connection.. the connection/gasket area would need to be cleaned up a little, but If you wanted it we could work out VERY cheap price.. shoot me a pm if you are interested.

I could use another brand but im not sure 1; who makes a dual tip (prob lots out there just havent checked yet) and 2: what muffler is going to withstand our heat temps.

I'm using two magnaflow straight through mufflers with a 3.5" ID. It has a very nice deep tone to it without being too overwhelming.
After building, or more accurately paying someone to build, a custom turbo back exhaust I have two pieces of advice for you. First, try to get it right on the first attempt. If you think you might want two mufflers instead of one ect, do it the first time. Otherwise you end up not only paying for work to be done twice, but also paying for the previous work to be undone. Second, make sure you use a long muffler tip. I found that extending it out a few inches has a big impact on interior drone. I belive it's because the shorter tip allows the sound waves to resonate through the rear bumper more.
Good luck with the project.

By useing two Magnaflows you meen one as a muffler and the other as resonated mid-pipe correct? The ID is 3.5", so that makes the inlet/oulet 3.5 also i hope. I want to go with 3.5" piping so that would work perfect.
The only problem with this as a muffler is its outlet is single, and i want to go with a dual tip. i know you can buy tips that split from a 1 into 2, but they dont look as good as dual straight from the can.
Did you by any chance hear a Borla first to make you choose the Magnaflow, or better yet what made you go with the Magnaflow over others?
And thanx for the incouragement!!!
