what kind of exhaust systems are available for the 3.1 V6? something of nice quality with a throaty sound. also what cams and other mods. headers?

 

i got dynomax pipes from a-1performance.com for 156 bucks and a flowmaster 80 series for 72 from summit.
also dynomax makes a turbo muffler, but im much happier with the flowmaster

 

It's basicly like this: quiet but performance gain=dynomax catback. Loud with a bit of performance but mostly show=Flowmaster. You can get 40 and 80 series for are cars (and possibly more, those are the only two I looked into when I did mine).

 

where can i order the flowmaster from? how big is the tubing?

 

i got mine from summitracing.com

tubing is 2.5"

 

I got mine at Mieneke, cause I had to have them install it. I think I paid like $120 installed. The muffler itself was like $75. The thing to keep in mind is that the 80 series is a single inlet, dual outlet. On my camaro, I had two tail pipes exiting on the drivers side, so I had to have them install two tailpipes, one on each side. But the results were definently worth what I paid. If you wanted to keep the tailpipes on just one side, then go with the 40 series.

 

I've heard that the dynomax is only a little louder then the stock one. Is that true? Which would be good enough for me.

 

my freind has dynomax's on his LT1 caprice.............i could barely tell we were driving a car with a SBC......thats how quiet they were

 

hummm i'm having my dynomax superturbo w/ high flow cat installed today i'll let you know more tomorrow
the exhaust system from sumitt was only like $132 and the cat was another 90 or so........ by far the lowest prices i found!

 

ok well it's in and so far i love it........
not 2 loud........ not 2 soft.......
it's right around where i wanted to be
it's the perfect setup for my little 3.1L
now all i need are the headers
