The Ecotec Exhausts (http://invision.aleromod.com/index.php?showtopic=292) thread discusses the Dynomax muffler. I've heard this on a 2.2 before and it sounded something like your looking for (don't know about the performance improvements though)

[BLK03GXS]

i dont really care about the performance, i am well aware i will gain nothing... i just dont like anything i'm driving to sound like arse... lol
but the dynomax muffler is a little different from a flowie...

Hey Rob, did you ever put Chads Exhaust on your alero?

[havik]

Still waiting, kinda hoping something else pulls through :thumbsup:

question do u have a 5spd or auto trans on your alero???
right now on my 5spd i got an universal arospeed dual muffler cat-back under the suspension set up wit rksport header that has a rumble to it i dont know how it will sound on an auto trans but i like the way it sounds its pretty loud just the way i have and it does sound ricey at all here are some pictures of what i got

[geedog66]

i also have 2 1/2" piping on it

[geedog66]

heres a pic of the header i got on

i have a 5spd... allmost wish that i had the auto... :rolleyes: lol had to have it rebuilt at 1500k :pissed: oh well.. got to love the 100,000k warrenty with no deductable lol :thumbsup:
I think what im going to do is a cat back Kustom with a 40 series flowie, and 2.5 inch pipeing... got a guy here localy that will bend it for me el-cheepo..
I was wondering if anyone else has tryed somethin like this...i Deffinatly dont want something ricey...
Like i think i said b4 i know its not gunna sound like my 400... but i dunn want it to sound like my exhaust is in a can of watter....lol

Once you get your exhaust completed, you gots to post some pics of it :thumbsup:

[BLK03GXS]

:thumbsup: ohh no worries there lol :D

[BLK03GXS]

ohhh BTW, geedog66 im thinin about that headder that you got, what did it set you back?

[geedog66]

the headers set me back like 400 dollars but to me the headers made the biggest difference in my ride its well worth the 400 i paid for it the headers are made by rksport

[BLK03GXS]

Awsome.. arent there a coupple other companys making eco headders? or am i out in left feild...lol

[d00fN00BeR]

what's the best company for headers and exhaust for the 2.2?

[BLK03GXS]

I dont know who does make prefab stuff for the eco alero... i know for the cavys n shuch (Jbodys) their are a few, you would be best off IMO to find a reputable exhause shop in your area and buy the parts you want... Ie headder, muffler and tip if neciccarry, and get the shop 2 fab you something.

Oh and btw i have my Exhaust done now... for the short term, basicly just hacked off the stock muff and mounted a 40 series flowmaster... sounds good.. but im not gunna post any pics untill i get a tip :ph34r: cus yea... lol. Because the muff is long and 2.50 hard to find a short length tip in that ID..anyways its just got a piece of 2.25pipe in there fer now.. sounds good now :thumbsup: verry happy with the sound.. and when i get tax's back it will get a full 2.25+cat deleate...

I'm not sure which is the best either, I haven't seen any dyno results but I could look for some.

I know rsmracing and rksport headers will fit the alero, I'm not sure about pacesetter but I think so.
