I'm getting new Flowmasters for Xmas. All I have to do is decide which ones to get. This is mufflers alone, no new pipes. I was wondering what everyones opinion was on the new 44's compared to the old Flowmasters. Are the 44'slouder in the car when not accellerating? Is the a noticeable difference between the two? Stocksare on the 1996 I have now. Help me decide please!!!!!

Lot of pick-up trucks around here have the Flowmasters. I'm personally not a fan.

Borla for me. Friends with vettes also like the Billy Boat models.

 

Get ready for some major drone and resonance with Flowmaster's.

 

Hey Lee,

Now that you have my attention.......what would you recommend?

 

I really like the sound of Borla and Corsa but they are an arm and a leg. Billy Boat, like mentioned above is nice but just as expensive. Some people like the resonance, I don't but I do not have any good alternatives to the price.

 

Thanks for the input Lee! I've listened to so many videos on YouTube trying to decide that I might just leave them stock. Just kidding.....I'm probably going to give the Flowmaster 50 series a try. Doing just the mufflers will be cheap and maybe Ican get a set of Borlas from the cat backone day. I like the sound of them the best. Thanks again for everyones help on this! Mike

 

I put a dual exhaust with flowmasters on my V8 380SL Mercedes and it sounds bad ***! I have glass packs on my vette and the Mercedes sounds better.

 

I got a complete exhaust system from Magnaflow put on my car. People say that it is pretty much the same as Flowmaster. It is noisy in the cockpit but I like it. I couldn't justify the Borla to the wife either so I'm pretty happy with Magnaflow. Like I said, it sounds pretty much like Flowmaster.

 

You guys are really a big help and I appreciate all of the input you have given me! This forum is GREAT!. At JEGS you can listen to just aboutall of the Flowmasters. Of coarse I know all of this varys from car to car but it gives you a general idea of what each one sounds like. I decided the 50's might be a little mild or to much like stockso I went with the Super 40's. IHope to get them on this week. Flowmaster claims the resonance in the car is minimal with this series......I guess I'll find out. Mike

 

I would get the American Thunder series. I asked a guy with a Mustang a few years back and he said that is what he has.
