Just put on my flows

[Dru]

well lets just say im a little disapointed but i still got to let it burn in and for the weldings to melt or whatever that guy said. also i need to get a intake that would also help but ill get back to you once i go out and dog it a lil i got the flowmaster 80 series and 3 inch pipeing all the way to the cat.

Don't worry, in a couple years you'll be in love with your Flows, as they sound better with age. I admit, I didn't like how mine sounded at first eaither, but they definately grew on me as they began to "mature" lol

mine sounded like total @$$ the first 2 weeks

tinny sounding, mostly on topend

[zlexiss]

So, is there a way to speed the break-in on a new exhaust system? Lots of hard acceleration? Lots of highway driving?

Yup, break in period needed.
1 month normal driving?

[Dru]

yea it is tiny sounding and u cant really hear it at all when im on the freeway goin like 70 and i punch it but its smooth [img]smile.gif[/img]

It took awhile as well to burn in.

Yup, when I first heard the car started up at the exhaust shop, I liked it. At first I wasn't used to it and it didn't sound quite as good as I expected. After about 2-3 months, it has def. gotten deeper and better sounding. I've had mine for about...I think four months now. It sounds so much better than when I first got it...if it "breaks in" even more, because right now it sounds bad a$$!

Sorry bud, but tips do not and will not ever effect your sound! Except the difference between exiting the body, and turn-down dumps over the axles. (sound reverbs off the street)

thats where ur wrong man cuz i know for a fact they do why becuase of reverb of corse a small pipe comming out of a big mouth makes a diffrent sound its like opening your mouth going ahhhh then u open wider and its louder same concept [img]smile.gif[/img]

[SlimJim1284]

yes they do.

Actually it's not the same concept of your mouth. When you open your mouth wide, compared to shut, it stretches the vocal chords differently and that effects how they resonate with the air flowing over them.
