Review on Patriot Exhaust H3015 Smithys Muffler by Flavio Iyer

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Paint is not heat resistant

Sounds amazing but paint is extremely brittle and inlet/outlet holes are 2.32 ID not 2 ,25. . The paint is chipping after 2 weeks but since I live in Arizona a quick coat of high temp paint should keep it in good condition. The only issue I had with the installation was that the pipe size was larger than advertised and it's really difficult to find a hanging strap. Whatever the case, the '87 Bronco II sounds deep and slightly louder than the standard. The sound of a 4-cylinder engine became the sound of a V8.

Pros
  • Dual end cap and hammered 3 1/2" bodies provide original Smithy look
Cons
  • Negative is present
