Anyone know who makes the "Bullet" muffler?

Post by turboleg »

I've had this axle back sitting in my basement ever since I bought my ej22t. The guy that sold me the swap gave me a bunch of freebies. This was one of them. The axle back that I'm using right now is pretty f*cked up. It was out of a car that was wrecked. So I'd like to replace it with a new one...one that doesn't look like its twisting under the car.

Anyone know what this "Bullet" sounds like? I can just as easily run open down pipe if the other muffler is going to sound stupid.

Is it a glasspack lookin' thing?

If so, its a Dynomax product...and would be VERY loud in place of your axleback (I did it :D ) Sounds burl as hell though

The only galsspack that I've seen were the ones we put on my friends truck. They were about 2 feet long and only about 5" in diameter (looked like a torpedo coming out of the box). Kinda like this;

This is a round muffler thats about 10" in diameter and probably about the same length as the stock SS muffler. Single inlet single outlet. It appears to be stainless steel with the raised letters BULLET on the side. I can't seem to find any indication of a manufacturer other than that. I'll try to take a picture and post this weekend, I think it will definitley help. My initial guess is that its a thrush type muffler that you can buy for $20-$30. I just don't want to end up with a fart can sounding exhaust. :)

I have a "Dynomax Race Bullet" muffler on my '86 XT turbo. Its mounted at the end of a custom downpipe. Sounds pretty sweet. I dont think I'd use it on a street car though, it'd be unbearably loud. (for the cops/girlfriend anyways, I'd love it personally).

I believe I purchased it through Summitracing.com. I'm going to be doing a 3" system on my legacy very soon, and was thinking about dropping a bullet in as a mid-pipe silencer, and then having an axleback like normal. The police are really anal around here, so I'd like to avoid noise tickets, but still have good rumble and flow.

Exactly what I did with mine...works great as a resonator!

My girlfriend is gonna hate me, I'm running 2.75 catless TBE with a HUGE angled fart can. I really can't wait to hear the beast.
Kickin' it old-school.
