I have been thinking about getting a Magnaflow muffler and i like the sound of the 14266, rated for Camaro/Firebird with 2.5" inlet with dual 2.25 out. What would i need to do to get this on an 00 neon?

Thanks.

You could search since this has been covered a million times... "camaro muffler"

Well I'm running a Dynomax Super Turbo camaro muffler on my car so it's similar. Not sure why you'd go with the 2.25" outlet if it's a 2.5" inlet... The Dynomax piece that goes from the axle back to the muffler is discontinued and I had to get a muffler shop to make one for me and they butchered it really bad and used the wrong size pipe to begin with... I upgraded my entire exhaust to 2.5" piping however I guess you could get an adapter up to 2.5". TruBendz may sell what you need. Although I thought they were no longer available.

If you opt for their pipes, I would go with the stainless. It isn't a ridiculous price increase. I would also order over the phone, and tell them how long you need the mid pipe to be. Or else it will be too short, unless you plan on a LTH. After some troubles I initially had, they made good on the pipe, and it still looks good after over a year.

It is how most single inlet/dual outlet mufflers are. Prolly to maintain some level of exhaust velocity in the system. Those two smaller exits combined are still a larger area than the inlet.

^Weird. I ordered my Dynomax with 2.5" in/out.

my Magnaflow for a Camaro is a 2.5 inlet. The guy at the muffler shop made a connector that went 2.25 to 2.5 .

so i have a question regarding mufflers. i still have my stock one but i am running a CAI + UDP. would running a CAI + UDP on stock muffler reduce gas mileage? is the stock one too restrictive on the airflow?

i havnt had the time/money to get one yet, tinted windows will probably come first.

running that stuff with the stock muffler won't negatively affect your mileage. a better flowing muffler may actually increase it.

I am also looking at getting a magnaflow muffler for my neon. I have read through this thread and saw that y'all like the camaro mufflers... My question is why do you like them and how do they sound, or is that the reason y'all like them?

They offer decent performance, and fairly inexpensive and offer a good sound without being obnoxious.

I had one on my old '05. I wonder if the clip is still on Youtube... BRB.

EDIT: Found it.

nice on the sound... I have 350 from selling my truck and I want to do the exhaust on the neon.
So... would this one work?

bump!

Should work just fine since it's for a Camaro application.

I used the 12266, but that one is essentially the same except it has 2.5" outlets instead of 2.25". Get some tips and any decent muffler shop should be able install it for less than $100.

I ordered the muffler and tips to match earlier today.
I know of a few places around here that can put them on. Will probably be sometime after 2011 starts when it will all be put on.

Nice, I'm sure you'll be happy with that setup. Make sure to watch them and double check that the tips are line up evenly before they weld them on. Mine were slightly off, but bending the hangar up fixed it.
