Exclamation Muffer/exhaust upgrade

Hello. I own a 2010 Camaro Rs, stock. I have a question. If i upgrade the muffler, just that, the sound will change? Or i have to change headers? Thanks

Yes, it will change, depending on which muffler you buy.

I bought the Magnaflow cat back for my 2015 V6. Very happy with the result and paid much less than MSRP.

Yes, you can dramatically improve the sound with just mufflers. Upgrading the header and cats will also improve sound and performance but are not necessary just to change the sound.

The MRT v2 and Borla axle back systems are both pretty popular. Check the link below for some video comparisons we did.

I did a muffler delete, added magnaflow resonator xpipe #11386, and added j-pipe all together cheaper than a typical exhaust setup and sounds amazing with no drone!

Love my Borlas. It all depends on the kind of sound you want. Talk to Chase (Apex Motorsports). He is great at listening to what you want for your build & helping you find just the right system for you. Plus good prices, free & fast shipping & great customer service.

Did you guys take the resonators out as well? Local shop suggest to keep them in.

A straight resonator delete will probably be uncomfortably loud for most people, although all exhaust note and volume preference is highly subjective.

We get a lot of positive feedback from the Camaro5 guys for our 11386 resonated X-pipe in place of the stock resonator, though. It gives a little volume boost if you keep the mufflers and will give a slightly higher frequency to the overall exhaust note. Some of the V6 owners also run that same part with a muffler delete for a more aggressive sound.
