I'm planning to switch from boomtubes to the Pypes mid mufflers. The boomtubes don't go very well with my o/r prochamber. To those who have mid mufflers, how easy was the install and how long did it take you? What kind of fitment issues were there if any. Where's the cheapest place to get the mid mufflers? Thanks!

just curious but what was wrong with the boomtubes? The mid muffler is similar to boomtubes i would think, you do get the mid mufflers but otherwise the actually actual back is just like loudmouths?

I think he was hearing trumpeting in upper RPM ranges.

Like Riptide said,the boomtubestrumpet at WOT with the o/r prochamber. The sound is like "Braaaaaaap". I guess because the exhaust is so free flowing now that the boomtubes "spider webs" (louvered core) - that were designed to clean up the sound and differentiate them from the loudmouths -are useless at WOTand they soundpretty much likeloudmouths. [:'(]Because the mid mufflers have the mufflers in the middle and not at the rear,they don't have that trumpeting problem like muffler deletes do.

correct, cant wait to hear them!

have you thought of just adding resonators? it would be cheaper. i just know a guy who heard my setup with resonators/off road h and liked it better than his setup with midmufflers/off road h.check my sig if you haven't hear my clip

i would recommend the boomtubes because they sound better than mids ,IMO

How muchdid it cost to get the resonators and have it welded in? Do the resonators mount after the H-pipe? What's the length of the resonators that you installed and who makes them?

By the way, since you have an off road pipe, did you notice trumpeting with the boomtubes at WOT too?

Pypes Mid Muffler with an O/R H was the best sounding S197 I've honestly ever heard.- I should know, I had it. It is however, very loud- which is why I dont have it anymore. I am searching for a lower sound than that, and plan on doingLT's with a high flow catted H.

A Prochamber should mellow it a bit when compared to the O/R H I hadhopefully, and sound awesome. If you dont mind the car being loud (but unbelievably mean, not raspy) I say go for it.

I wouldnt change the mid muffs for ANYTHING that I've heard on an S197, andIve heardjust about everything.

Post videos if you do it.

I recommend installing on a lift if you have access, or have a shop install it for you, as it is a PIA to install- but well worth it man
