Tonight me and my friend installed a glass pack on his 94 3.4 camaro. the only mods on it was a K&N FIPK and its lowered. i installed it in place of the muffler. so it came from the right and exited on the rear left. It sounds bad@$$. It does have a little bit of a rice sound after 3500 RPM But it still sounds good. you can still tell that its not a 4 banger though. i took some video clips and the sound is really good on them ill compress them 2night and try and have them up tomarrow or sat. but my question was would i be better off doing daul glass packs after the axle or just get a flowmaster LS1 cat back. If i do glass packs i was going to y or t pipe it after the axle with 2.5 or 3 in pipe and put a glass pack on each side. they would have to be short glass packs though. what do you guys think? i know the glass packs would take more work(im doing it myself) but they would also be cheaper. Which would be louder?

it sounds a lil louder and deeper but i had to lower the quality so it wouldnt be a huge file. but you can get a general idea.
i might just do mine the same way and get the flowmaster later.<a href=\"http://cardomain.com/id/articacid\" target=\"_blank\">2002 35th Anniv.

That isn't too bad. sounds pretty good on a 3.4 but it sounds like he was under 2500 RPM's when he took off, so don't know what it sounds like over 2500, but it sounds alright.1996 Polo Green Metallic Camaro:<br />SLP CAI, Carsound/Magnaflow 3\" in/out cat, Flowmaster 2.5\" cat-back... sounds greatComment

When he gets farther away and lefts off hes actually closer to 4000 RPM. You think i should go 4 one on my 3.8 and just get the flowmaster when i get the money? i mean for $20 bucks you cant beat it.<a href=\"http://cardomain.com/id/articacid\" target=\"_blank\">2002 35th Anniv.

I guess you could try. For $20 I'd say its worth the sound test. If you hate it you are only loosing $20 instead of like $80 or $100(Not really sure how much flowmaster mufflers cost). I heard a guy at an autoparts store saying that you should avoid glasspacks because of how hot they can get. I don't know if what he was saying was legitamite or not, but if your friend is having no problem I guess it can't hurt.1996 Polo Green Metallic Camaro:<br />SLP CAI, Carsound/Magnaflow 3\" in/out cat, Flowmaster 2.5\" cat-back... sounds greatComment

oh, I didn't know you were getting the whole cat-back, I thought you were just getting the muffler. So in comparison to $300 for the whole kit, $20 is nothing if you don't like it.Originally Posted by: articacid the flowmaster cost 300 + shipping.1996 Polo Green Metallic Camaro:<br />SLP CAI, Carsound/Magnaflow 3\" in/out cat, Flowmaster 2.5\" cat-back... sounds greatComment

depends on if you are going for sound (which it sounds like you are) or performance. Cat back will prob. give you better performance than installing a glasspack.Originally posted by articacid:

I posted a couple of clips of my car a few weeks ago.
