The Tone You've Been Looking For

Hot Tamales by Paradox Performance Mufflers aren't just another generic loud muffler. Our revolutionary design brings out the unique sound of your engine in the best ways. In short, our patented Tuning Fork Technology delivers deep, complex tones that other brands can't match.



Revolutionary Patented Technology

All Paradox Performance Mufflers use our patented Tuning Fork Technology™. This provides bold, deep tones when idling and under acceleration. But at highway speeds, Paradox Performance Mufflers are designed to become quieter, which can reduce or even eliminate exhaust drone.

Virtually all other brands use three basic ideas: backpressure, sound absorption, or deflection. Paradox Performance Mufflers are the world's first "mechanically activated" mufflers. a category of its own capable of superior sound and flow.

    Great sounding mufflers - Ram 1500

    Posted by Mark Richards

    My 18-year-old son just purchased a brand-new Ram 1500 classic. He was in the market for an aggressive sounding muffler. He looked at all the top names that market their product, which in turn cost the consumer a lot more money. I found paradox mufflers on Facebook. Through hours of listening to sound bites, my son decided to purchase a Hot Tamale muffler. He had it installed the other day, ended up loving the aggressive sound. I got home from work and listened to it, I too have a brand new ram, 1500 Laramie edition. Both trucks have the hemi 5.7, I ordered my muffler over the weekend. I will be getting mine installed next week. Thank you for the services that you do. You have a great sounding mufflers.

    I finally got the Hot Tamales installed and I am more than pleased with the results. Not only did it give me a louder sound, but a much deeper one as well.

    Very Pleased - Chevy Tahoe 5.3

    Posted by Kevin N.

    I had a Paradox 3" pipe Hot Tamale (very high quality) installed on my 2002 Chevy Tahoe 4x4 5.3L / 4l60e (not a hotrod by any means) and I am very pleased with it. The tone is very mellow from idle to 2000 rpm normal driving then up to rpm limiter it starts singing that tune everyone loves to hear in a performance vehicle and in the interior it has no annoying rumbling, groaning, or vibrating noises. If you are in the market for a quality muffler at a very reasonable price, this is the one. Thanks guys for all the research you put in this high quality performance muffler... HOME RUN! Now if I can just keep my foot out of it I'll see if mpg is changed. Sincerely, One Pleased Customer.

    If you're looking for that perfect sound and want to gain gas mileage and increase power all in one, try a paradox muffler. It gave me so much more power I thought someone hit me from behind when I took off.
