Ok dude, I wanted to know the names of a couple chambered mufflers, I don't know if you understand this, but you suggested magnaflow and dynomax, I have a dynomax, I don't like it that much, Magnaflow is NOT chambered, it has glass packing inside of it and a semi turbo muffler design, Its basically an expensive glasspack, I dont want an EXPENSIVE muffler, flowmaster are chambered, I know of a couple that are knockoffs like Midas's RAVIN muffler, but they don't make them anymore.. All I said was if I can't find a cheap chambered muffler, I'll get a glasspack cause I like how they sound. End of story.. And as I posted before, I do my own exhaust work, paying a shop to do it is stupid because I have a welder and pipe, all I need is a muffler.

I like how when I mention the word Flowmaster everyone changes the dang subject and starts telling me to get one, or not to get one, when all I wanted to know of was some cheap chambered mufflers... This thread shoulda died about twenty posts ago..

if you do your own exhaust work, you have access to all of the same information we have.

but anyways, I've got a magnaflow on my 4runner- it was 135 installed with 2.25 pipe from the cat to the muff and from the muff out the side. I also have a cheap off the shelf turbo muffler from autozone installed on my 91 pickup and it was 125 installed with 2.25 pipe from the cat to the muff and from the muff out the side.
The magnaflow was 10 bucks more than the cheap turbo muff. It sounds better and has a better warranty. But maybe I should say I also had a chrome tip installed on the 4runner for 10 bucks so maybe everything's not the same....
My wallet says that the magnaflow muffler was the same price as the cheap a$$ turbo on my pickup.

your mileage may vary.
