Quick question. I'm looking around to get the muffler ordered tonight if I can and need to know. Does it matter where the inlet and outlet are located for our cars? Like there is outer/outer, outer/center, and center/center offsets. Does this matter? If so which would be the best performance wise for our cars?

beleive the mustang is outer outer but on offsetted sides

But does it effect the exhaust in anyway shape or form? I'm having a custom piping put on with it so I doubt the positions of the inlet and outlet will matter. I'm looking for whats gonna give the best performance, if it matters at all.

then no. just get the best free flowing one possible or one that give you
the tone you want. Turbo's choice seems to be the flowmaster 40 series

"seems to be" huh?

The inlet would be coming from the manifold to the muffler, yes it does matter which way you put it because most mufflers are chambered and the can hold back the exhaust if put on wrong

a regular muffler will do fine

just post a link of the muffler and ill tell you if its good or not

never used just regular mufflers before turbo and never had a problem.
putting it on the correct way is important though.

Just a regular flowmaster 40 series muffler.

1st one is the size you need

2nd. there 2.25", the stock exhaust is 2" so if you get that muffler you better do all new piping

I am doing all new piping from the header back. The stock exhaust system hasn't been on this car in like 2 years now since there is no emissions in florida anymore. Since the port and polish to the block I upgraded the header with the one from racerwalsh.com which is also 2 1/4 to the bung so ya. Just trying to get everything done correctly now so I can get it going. Once I get the exhaust system done and I think the car is ready i'll be going down and get it dyno'd so we can see what i'm really putting down. So first one is the one I need huh. Time to order.

Oh ya turbo check your forum on the 2.3L N/A section. Have a question i need answered in there. Thanks again.
