I prefer 40 inches long, 8 inches wide and in cashmere. Suggest color match your Xfire. Only kidding.

What is wrong with the one on the car?

Default Wow..thanks for the help!! Why be an assclown?

I've been lucky so far in posting on this forum, until today!! I've seen the smartasses come out to play but never had the occasion to bump into one.

If you don't have anything constructive to say..why waste your time and the time of others by posting bullshat?

Really did not mean to get under your skin. Honestly wanted to know why the OEM muffler needed to be replaced. Is it cosmetic or functional?

There is magnaflow cat back system
MagnaFlow Performance Exhaust

There is a Borla cat back system
Stainless Steel Cat-Back? System | 140083 | Chrysler Crossfire 3.2L 6cyl - BORLA - The World's Most Winning Exhaust

There are more options availiable, all depends on what sound, look, performence, do it your self or if you are getting a shop to do it. If it is just a muffler you want or need any exhaust shop can throw on a universal muffler and make it fit

I have ran a Megan M-RS ( 6 months) with no issues around 129.95 on their website
kinda odd that ANSA would have problems with their quality can you elaborate on what went south on it ?

I deleted the resonator at the rear, saved weight, got much better sound without drone, and minimal cost. Not too loud either, still play the stock radio you know. Woody

Much lower backpressure, you could feel the difference.

You can get a magnaflow 14221 uni fit. Have them cut the old muffler off, weld this one on. E-bay has them for 119.00 fs. polished SS. Under car parts . com has the 16633 magnaflow cat back for name your price. ask for about 350. to 400. you might get lucky. Go to u-tube and search CROSSFIRE EXHAUST. several posts are there. you can get a feel on which sound you are looking for. The Megan R/S sounds great. A little large 3in inlet 4 in out. Looks great on car. Do search on forum . You can find a lot of pix, and stuff. Good luck.

grab a tape measure.. measure the circumferance of the pipe, and divide by 3.14 theres your pipe size. Measure the length, and determine the offset of the inlet and outlet (should be center in, dual out). There are tons of universal mufflers that will fit.

Here's a thread about how to get the Magnaflow catback from WunderCarParts. The original deal was $350 plus shipping, but Brad (the owner) has bumped the price up about 5-10%, because Magnaflow raised his cost. Anyway you should be able to get it for around $400 shipped.

+1 on this WOW are they a pain, I eventually put vaseline on them and they slipped right in. I'm running a Magnaflow on my SRT, much larger exhaust pipe and it's dual in dual out, it drones something awful but sounds great on the outside

anything aftermarket is going to drone, its a fact of life. We've gone through 6 different exhaust configurations on our z06 and they all drone, cats, no cats, maganaflow, corsa, etc all drone

its a fact of louder exhausts
