Default E-Mail From Mufflex

I emailed Mufflex regarding a video with their 24" system so that those of us who are interested could hear it. They said they do not have any videos of it but was looking for someone to put it on their truck so they could get a video of it. They said they would be willing to sell it at a discounted price to someone who was close to them. Here is what they said:

We are working on that .If you could put a post on the forum that we are looking for a DOD 24m customer for video we will help them out on the price in exchange for the video shoot(must be local) Thanks Denny, www.Mufflex-Performance.com
609-890-0481

Thought for anyone local, it would be a sweet deal.

I also do not understand why it has to be local.

Pay fill price

Take a video of the muffler install, just a couple shots.

Video of startup

Video of Rev

Video of drive by

Send video and get money back...

Personally it should be free considering the business they will get off of it.

I already made up my mind, I am going 14. It is their most agressive and the sound is not overly agressive.

I'm fairly local, only about 30 minutes away.

Well I finally got my 24 and am really pissed off. The website says 20 minute install, they neglected to mention that you have to remove the little divots that are welded on the tailpipes and inlet pipe, they are used to align the exhaust at the factory. After grinding them off i buttoned everything up and tightened the clamps. One clamp broke at the weld, I had to use a regular muffler clamp to get by until Mufflex sends a new one or I remove the system and put my old one on. Took it for a test drive and noticed a leak, coming from where one of the aligning divots used to be. After shipping and currency conversion this muffler cost almost $400, not worth it. Really wish I had left factory axhaust on, nothing but a bloody headache.

Wow this is the first time I have heard anyone with something bad to say. I think the 24 is basically the same as your factory one if you leave it on for a while

I dont have a problem with the sound, I am pissed because knowhere in the instructions or web is there a mention about the factory aligning divots having to be removed. So if you are a do-it your .selfer, you spend a couple of hours trying to make this thing fit until you realize that the divots have to be ground off. Oh did I mention that the clamp on there hanger broke.

You're the first person that I have seen that has removed the alignment pins. There is no need to as there is still a lot of room past them to install the muffler. It's at minimum a good 2" which is plenty. That is why they don't tell you to remove them. I left mine alone and the fit is fine. Same with everyone else that I have talked to.

Now the hangars are another story. You have to be careful not to overtighten the clamps or you can break them. If it doesn't clamp tight enough and you have a leak, most just cut an extra slot in the muffler so it can crimp down tighter. Cuts easily with a hack saw. It's mentioned on here in some of the install threads. You shouldn't have to do this but that is the only issue I have seen that anyone has had, until now.
