The Flowmaster Is On!!!!!!!

YES i finally got it and it is the ****!!

there is a pretty good drone at 50 but at 55-60 there is absolutely no drone and i can listen to my tunes in peace.


it is also a little quieter and alot deeper than the glasspack.

all in all, i would recommend this to anyone..

i will say this...you have the only one i have ever seen installed there...

if you put it under the car and run a 2.5" pipe out the back it will change the sound to a deeper tone.

...Frank...

 

if i wanted it put under the car he woulda had to make all new pipe and i did not have the money... its not noticeable from a standing position..

 

how about commenting on the sound and not calling me a dumbass, guys...

 

I like it! Sounds good....but you didn't put your camera....on the ground...in the snow did you? J/K

But I do like the sound, that wasn't a joke!

 

haha no, i set the camera up on a bucket..

 

It sounds like any straight six with a performance muffler - somewhere in between a pulp wood truck and an elephant farting. However, that is a big improvement over a glass pack behind a straight six. You're heading in the right direction.

 

The sound makes air blow out of the front of my laptop, kinda scared me.

 

does anyone else hear that noise right after i rev it that sounds like air coming out or something?

 

It sounds more like a light metal on metal vibration to me. How close is the tailpipe to the valance?

 

The only way that might be true is if the current over axle pipe is smaller. Here is a little experiment I did with my brother on his 4.6 liter mercury marquis.
First he ran a dual system with cats, but no mufflers, exiting under his rear bumper. it was too loud and did not sound good. So he bought a pair of Borla mufflers. We jammed them on behind the car and listened to the idle and revved it in and out of gear. All on video. then he had them installed before the axle and afterwards we video taped it again to compare differance in the sound. I know it seems counter intuitive, but with everything else remaining the same, mufflers installed farther back are noticably LOUDER and DEEPER! I tend to believe these findings would apply reguardless of muffler brand. Also, the bigger the pipe diameter, the louder and deeper it will be too!
Have a look at the muffler location on my cuda


Mavmanerick, Why dont you edit that post and add the video with the old glasspack so I can compare the sound?

 

ya i thought mufflers more towards the back made em louder too..
i forgot i had this video of my glasspack but this is a nice comparison.. remember, the glasspack got much louder than this over time...

It definitely sounds better then the glass pack did on your car specifically. Dual exhaust on a 6 I would stick with glass packs (mounted under the rear seat), single exhaust that flow master definitely has a better sound to it (wouldn't go so far as to calling it a nice sound, honestly).

 

farther away than my glasspack tip was..

 

Are you talking about the growly belch after you let off the pedal?, I believe that is the tell-tale characteristic of a flowmaster 2-chamber.
