It has a 2.5 inch inlet and outlet reason im going for this design is for back pressure and will also like the ride to remain some what a sleeper and quiet in neighborhoods, im removing the resonator and up grading from 2" (stock) to 2.75" and will run a test pipe when it hits the track. What do you think? any cons with this type of muffler?

You gave a very vague description of the muffler....can't really tell what it can do.

Ugly... If you want quiet just get a cat back that has a silencer included. That thing actually looks like a silencer!

That will look really funny from behind and you will have terrible ground clearance.

I wanted a stealthy stock look and searched for a long time to find the correct muffler. What I ended up getting was a streetpower muffler from Vibrant Performance. It has the stock look with the dual outlets, it is flat black so it does not attract attention and it has a flow through design so it does not hinder performance yet it is still pretty quiet. It is also 304 stainless steel underneath the paint so it will not rust, and they are not expensive.

(dont mind the steel wool - it was used to stop critters from making a home in the exhaust while the car was stored.)

Vibrant offers the muffler in a few inlet diameters as well as with a single outlet.

Not that I don't like the Vibrants, I was thinking of getting one but the full blackout just looks like tons of carbon to me, and a polished stainless muffler is too blingy...

if its going on a turbo car 2.5 is going to be pretty small. poodles and blackout have the 2 best options it would seem for a sleeper look...
