Glasspacks?
What do you guys think of glasspacks on blazers? Do they sound ok? To loud? There so much cheaper than the mufflers i want.
|
glasspacks shouldn't be on anything but a healthy V8. 4s and 6s just sound wrong if you put a louder exhaust on. Just my opinion though...
|
There not too loud and they sound ok.I have actualy heard one on a motorcycle and Im considering putting one on mine.Theres a video clip on here somewhere that someone made and has different sounds from different kinds of mufflers on a Blazer.Maybe you can search and find it or someone will dig it up out of the archives
|
I just looked at some youtube videos. they dont sound bad at all. real deep and throaty. I think i may do this
|
My exaust is off my jimmy except the Y pipe.A red glasspack would match the exterior color RED.I maybe inspired to use one myself,they are cheaper than flowmaster
|
I had one on my cavalier because the muffler would rot of every year
Old neighbor commented that she knew exactly what time it was every morning because she heard my car start when I left for work LOL |
i have a 95 blazer and i just have straight piped all the way back no cat no muffler and it sounds mean and its pretty loud too i was wondering what it be like to have a glass pack ive asked some guys and they you would just have a pissed off weed wipper under youre hood with glass packs on a blazer so i guess to eatch is own hope that helps

I put a THRUSH glasspack on my blazer about 3 weeks ago. since then the truck has been over a thousand miles and i think it's pretty well broken in, i like the sound of it. i didn't change anything out except the muffler, they are really quiet at idle, but still have the throaty sound, while driving at about 45 or 50 they start to really sound like a v6, though they still aren't very loud. It's a good 20-30 dollar investment, i would reccomend it if you don't want to put a hole in your wallet. :)

I have on my 96 it doesn't sound too bad it ain't a v8 but still sounds good.
|
flowmaster super 44+highflow cat+CAI=almost sounding like a v8 lol
|
had a thrush glasspack on mine and it fell off and im glad it did. i wish i wouldn't have hacked my exhaust all the hell. i just dropped $400 and got full stainless duals and its wayy better. drop the cash and get it done right. mine sounded like a revv limitted chainsaw and snap and popped i hated it.
the new duals sounds mean when i first start it up then quiet up a bit, but i sh!t and git it sounds mean. No drone in the cab whatsoever, i actually can't even hear it. but i've had 2-3 people at gas stations ask me about them because you don't really see many blazers with duals. they look sharp and sound the same to match. also if you don't get a good crimp with the muffler crimp you'll have holes. If i remember correctly, you are from Pitt and good luck passing inspection with that. And the 1000* muffler patch tape isn't legal either. |

i just put one on my blazer today actually. it sounds nice, but i like the sound of glasspacks on most things. i even put one on a 66 volvo 1800cc and had it sound nice
|
i have one on mine sounds decent, cheap to do too
|
sounds almost v8,till you hit the gas lol.
|
I got one for my jimmy a week ago and put it on today, it does not make any popping noises at all it sounds pretty nice. Its louder but not as loud as a v8 for $30 I would buy it again when this one is done.

A buddy of mine had a glasspack on his 4.3 5speed. Sounded great. Like a old log truck. Lol, My whole family has glasspacks, dads got'em on his 5.7 vortec and a ford v6. Brothers got one on his 4 banger ranger and I got'em on my k5 350 and my ole silverado 350. Heck my grandma had one on her sliverado. Lol
