if you want louder..go with the Flowmaster 10 series no noise reduction.. You will have to get a reducer though... They are 3" That is what I am about to change to to see how it sound since I do not have that third cat...

Lmao +1. Mine are only 32's but they sure like to "hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm".
I guess I need a super 4# to try to drown out the tirenoise.
And a new headunit and speakers to drown that out

Guess I'll be the guinea pig here in a few weeks... Anyone got tips on how I should do it? SI/DO. DI/DO, or 2 SI/SO? Lol and what size? I want duals, I'm sort've wondering how costly "true duals" would be, into either 2 SI/SO 44's or just 1 DI/DO 44. Advice? I'm up for everyone's ideas. I've really been wanting to do an exhaust lately, but I'm nervous, cause I don't know what would sound the best..

Soon. lol...within' a month i should be geared, locked, and exhausted(super44'd!).


If your going dual out, do 2.5" pipe into the muff, and dual 2". If going single, go 2.25" all the way back.

Has anyone actually ever dyno tested all the flowmaster products to see if they really make you lose power?

Beard seems to think that they do and so do some other members.

Who has proof to back this up? And if so with what muffer with what set up?

they do i know, suck a little more fuel compaired to a straight through design. that's a typical chambered muffler trait. dumped sucks some more, and possibly sucks some power too. I miss having a tailpipe right now.
