I don't want a glass pack. Too many people have told me it will sound horrible.
Just. 2.4? I love my car. Lol

Since I started modding my car it's been making noises. The interior has so many noises. And I'm done with bolt ons. There's nothing else I can do. I would turbo or sc it but I don't want to risk breaking my daily driver. My plan is in a few years to part it out and trade it in for something better.

Here's what I did:
My muffler is a Dynomax Super Turbo (P/N 17733).
Which muffler do you have? because mine fit almost naturally, the guy at the shop had no problems installing mine. Exhibit A:
At that time I also had the over-the-axle section enlarged to 2.5", but seeing that you are starting out with a pacesetter system you should be fine. Exhibit B:
I currently have my stock resonator which I'm planning on replacing with a magnaflow resonator (P/N 10436) sometime this spring. This is partially to quiet out the minimal drone I have and I have seen evidence that the stock resonator has a 2 1/16 inch inlet. (not good)
Hope this provides some info you were looking for.

I have same setup as you pretty much with dynomax muffler.... still a little loud for me.... planning on adding a 2nd resonator.... but dynomax is the quietest from my understanding that wont reduce hp.... like guy said its s shaped.... the only issue i had with it is it had to be mounted on a slight diagonal to keep from rubbing on the rear fender well and melting it.... this is what i know regarding your issue

I've had mine for 2 years now and the sound is still as mellow as when I first bought it. It's a good muffler at a fair price. Yes there has been a few people that don't like it but alot enjoy the sound. My car had a tsudo exhaust on it before I got the dynomax muffler and it sounded like a mack truck and interior noise was probably just as bad like chevygirl explained. So I decided to give the dynomax super turbo muffler a try and was very pleased with the sound levels and glad I purchased this muffler.

It is yes. It'll be a bottleneck for the rest of your exhaust. The only other muffler would be a lnf muffler. Other than that get this muffler right here.

mine is the identical model 17333.... not sure if cti makes every pipe exact or if its just a guesstimate.... mine could have been mounted like yours but the guy said it would very possbily melt my fender well... thats how close it was... damn near touching.... its not too bad doesnt bother me too much.... but i do know since i opened up my exhaust my mpg has drastically gone down.... hoping my tune next month will fix it
