Hey all!! I was farting around summit's website looking at exhaust options for both my G8 and my wife's suburban. I see so many different types of mufflers, but I am at a loss as to what the difference is between a turbo muffler and let's say a chambered muffler. I used to run flowmasters on everything I owned but am a little more grown up now and a little more def thanks to working on F/A-18 Super Hornets for a living and just not looking for obnoxiously loud exhaust anymore. A nice tone and a mpg or two is what I need. Thanks a bunch!!

Turbo muffler while not a true straight through, will not have chambers and is usually completely reversible. Therfore louder.

Someone on here recently pulled off a brand new set of magnaflows that might be bought right. But like they found out, see if you can hear in person what you are looking to do.
