  • Flowmaster exhaust...

    Do they actually decrease power? ive read on other fbody forums they decrease power.. i find that extremely hard to beleive.

    I know they arent the best, but im going for cheap and good sounding, a 5 HP increase compared to 15-20 isnt an issue

    they won't decrease power over stock if that's what you're talking about. No, they aren't the best, performance or sound wise, but better than stock.

          120 plus install i assume?

          Everyone wants a deep tone. Borla is the best for that imo, but just my borla muffler was over 150. It should sound better than stock anyway. Many people have the flowmaster system, so it can't be THAT bad..

            I have the flowmaster

            depends on what system you are getting
            I have the american thunder catback which comes with the 80 series muffler.
            Def doesn't sound like rice, sounds nice and deep. Except on really hot days, it still sounds good but I dont think its loud enough, Thats why I'm installing a cutout next week

              I have the flowmaster and like it. Sounds good and I get compliments when they hear that its a six. But I got the flowmaster because it was cheap at the time. If I had money to spend I'd go with the borla or magnaflow.

                        what kind of flowmaster are you getting?

                        do you already have dual outlet?

                          its because I still have the resanator on. it makes a huge sound difference

                              if you redo your whole exhaust from the manifolds back, the flowmaster is perfect in my opinion.....allows you to still have some backpressure because it is not as wide open as the others. it would be extremely loud as well if you put a LM/Borla on it with the headers/hf cat. The flowmaster american thunder catback by itself though wouldnt be much of a performance option, more for sound. Biggest drawback with that cat-back is that the flowmaster 80 series is heavy as hell! My stock exhaust hanger couldnt handle the weight and snapped where it was welded...had to get a larger hanger.
