    Default Cheap muffler with inlet and outlet on the same side?

    So I got the exhaust replaced on the Sera, and after telling them it needs to be practically silent, they gave me an exhaust on a stock 1.5l engine that is louder than my 4AGZE running 12PSI with a straight through 2.5" system....
    I took it back, and they had a tinker but the result is the same, but with the assurance "We've done all we can do, it will quieten down with time", yea right, no.

    Then I found that it hangs too low (90mm to the ground) and the axle hits the pipe when you drive over a bump at speed......

    So, After paying a 'professional' business to royally fuck things up (as per usual), it's down to me to redesign it all to work properly.


    I have taken measurements, and there is no way I can fit a second muffler under the cabin just after the cat (I'll stick a second hotdog there instead), but there is just enough room to squeeze two 14" long 5" x 8" mufflers in under the boot area if I orient them vertically (instead of laying flat).

    So, I'm looking for a 14" x 8" x 5" muffler, with 2 1/4" inlet and outlet on the same end of the muffler. Like the Magnaflow 14210, but mild steel and cheap.
    That way, I can set it up to flow into this muffler first, loop out and into the second muffler, then out the back of the car.

    Any ideas for where to look?

    Sorry mate no help with sourcing the muffler. You could surely get the shop to have another look at the exhaust considering they have made your car unroadworthy (with the exhaust hanging too low).
    But regardless of that I am assuming that you got a 2.25inch exhaust (based on your required inlet/outlet size)? That is excessive really and you could go smaller on the 5e to fix alot of your problem.
