You're giving up most of the performance gain by keeping the stock pipe. The 2 1/4" pipe is where you get the performance, but you can still choke it with a bad muffler. Flowmaster is a good prescription for headache inducing resonance. I'm about to put 2 1/4" exhaust on my Valiant and it's getting a Dynomax Super Turbo just like my '66 Dart had. Nice sound, but not too loud.

The Super Turbo is pretty mellow. Doesn't have the rap like you usually associate with duals on a 6 cylinder, but I think the rap is as much a function of true duals as which muffler is used. The Ultraflow welded is a bit louder than the Super Turbo. It's a lot like an overgrown glasspack, even the oval ones. I had one on my 318 Satellite with a single 3" pipe and it sounded darn good. I even have a sound clip of it somewhere, but can't find it right now.

zerglin87,

Just clamp the muffler in for now and try the Thrush Welded for $29.00 and then try another. The key is running 2 1/4 pipe all the way. You get allot more power that way.
