Looking for Muffler suggestins.

1972 2.4 MFI, 2 in 1 out. Currenlty runining the 3 glass pack
version.

It's too loud for the street, but just right for the track.

I'm looking for someting quieter to drive to the office on nice days.

Suggestions???

From what I've heard, aftermarket mufflers on a MFI car can really
make it tempermental at various RPM's.

Use a stock muffler. Your MFI will thank you.

Cool

A sport muffler will tend to make the MFI run lean in the mid-range.

I once had a 911E 72' with a stock muffler that had two tubes put in like a sport muffler but the stock exit was still there. was that a homemade job or is that how they came, sounded awesome and ran great....if a person wanted to do something like this for themself is there any tricks to keep in mind??
