Muffler 2-1/2in Inlet / Outlet x 8in long

The Muffler 2-1/2in Inlet / Outlet x 8in long by SCHOENFELD is a compact straight-through muffler engineered for custom and modified exhaust systems where space and weight are critical constraints. Built for enthusiasts who demand performance without sacrificing sound control, this muffler bridges the gap between aggressive tone and street-legal operation. Its compact 8-inch length makes it ideal for tight engine bays, transverse engine layouts, or integrated exhaust packages where traditional mufflers won't fit.

The 2-1/2-inch inlet and outlet sizing matches common header and mid-pipe configurations used in street performance builds, muscle car restorations, and custom fabrication projects. SCHOENFELD's straight-through design minimizes back pressure while the compact profile—just 8 inches long and weighing only 1.345 pounds—preserves weight savings crucial for handling balance and acceleration. This construction delivers efficient flow characteristics without the flow restrictions of traditional chambered designs, making it a go-to choice for tuners building custom exhaust systems where both acoustic and thermal management matter.

This muffler works best in applications where you're piecing together a complete custom exhaust or replacing a failed OEM component in a modified vehicle. The 2-1/2-inch diameter accepts standard universal muffler clamps and hangers, simplifying installation on custom-welded or mandrel-bent piping. Mechanics and fabricators commonly pair this unit with cat-back systems, turbo applications, and engine swaps where stock mufflers don't provide the necessary fitment or performance envelope you need.
