that an engine without a turbo or SC would do better with the Turbo design
muffler, you need some backpressure to avoid loosing low end torque.

I'm about to put a Dynomax UltraFlow on my rig. There is a local muffler
shop that stocks them and everyone that has them seems to like them.

Well, thats what everyone has said but my ultraflow on my 3.4 is much quieter than the turbo was on my v6 ranger. The ultraflow is quieter but deeper, when you get on it though it howls and sounds good, but at idle its s deep rumble. What youll see with the ultraflow is that the first couple of weeks its not much, but the longer its on there the deeper its sounding. The turbo on the other hand was louder on the ranger and had a bit of a buzzy sound. Id definitely recommend an ultraflow to anyone with a V6 ranger.

Well i got my muffler and cat in the mail yestarday. That was awesome ordered it saturday and recieved it tuesday. Not only that but i ended up having enough time to get it installed last night too. I got the dynomax super turbo muffler and the dynomax high flow cat with 2 1/4" piping. It sounds exactly like i wanted and i am very satisfied. I really cant tell a noticeable power gain, but i does seem to rev quicker, probably due to the old packed up cat having 154k on it. But anyway thanks for the tips everyone.
