Exhaust sound question?????

Fist off, I did try a search and all I came up with was people talking about it, No actual sound clips.



Does anyone have a sound clip of a flowmaster 40 series muffler on a 3.0 Ranger????

I found a guy selling flowmaster dual exhaust setups for rangers, But I really would like to know how they sound before I purchase them.



Thanks
Vic

Your sig says that you have a magnaflow system on. I guess that's your truck with the sound clips on your site.


I was looking for a flowmaster 40 series sound clip on a 3.0L?

Cool, Thank You. I took a look through all of those clips. The flowmaster seems to be a bit too loud for me. The local police just love to give out exhaust noise tickets (AKA noise pollution tickets LOL).

I ended up picking up the gibson extreme duals for the truck. I got them for an awsome price, $215. I heard them on a ranger and liked them because thier not extremely loud like the flowmasters are.

I will post pics when I get it tomorrow. I will also try a sound clip if I can figure out how to do it.


Anyway, Thanks for your help.
Vic

Clay, I have about 5 1/2 mb of exhaust vids if you want them. They are not hosted anywhere, but on my hard drive.

One is idling, and the other is about 3 min long with me driving down the road and back again. I can send them if you want them.

Justin

BTW, it is a 3.0 with flowmaster 40 series SI, DO

I finally got around to install this exhaust on the truck. Man does it sound good. It's not abnoxiously loud, it's a nice smoth rumble at idle and the it has a noticable rumble while driving.

All around, I like it. It also gave it some extra boost. according to the butt dyno. I was never able to chirp a second with my old 30" tires, and never even came close with my new 31" bfg's. Now I rip a second

I am going to swap the MAF housing tomorrow and see what else I get out of it. I have one that has been modded already.

I will get pics of it tomorrow with my digi cam. If someone can tell me how to get recorded sound to my comp, I can post a sound clip of it.
