Mufflers alone may add around 5hp. It'* a small gain.

Can anyone tell me how Ravin mufflers sound? Ive heard a few and they sound REALLY deep, and dont have much resonance. Midas here sells them, and im pretty sure I could get a good deal on one.......thanks!

I've never even heard of them, and I doubt anyone here has one. Getting a sound clip on a bonneville will be next to impossible.

Never heard of them?

Hmmm....

Do you know if an exhaust shop will install a muffler, if I dont purchase it from them, and I just bring it in? Thanks

And I know this is a very vague question, and im in Canada, but how much do you think theyd charge me to just install it? No tips.....

OH, and Is my Regal 2.25", or 2"?

Probably around 30 US dollars without the tips. If they have to frabicate pipes then add another 10-70 dollars depending on the length and bends, etc... best bet is to go ask them or call them

Regal should be 2.25.

Yes, they make the most money installing.

Depends on where you go get em installed....maybe $60 bux per hour. Always look for an installed price before making a decision.
