back to flowmasters or no?

[Foxfan88]

my car came with flowmaster 40 when i bought it, and then i had a junky exhaust.

soon before i tore my engine out, i bought nice exhaust parts. a nice set of headers and h pipe, and put turndowns on my flowmasters and it sounded GOOD.


when i put my new engine in i put some dynomax bullets on, i like the sound, but lately its just too LOUD and has no real tone to them. sounds like an old farm truck at idle and low rpm

i was thinking of changing back to flowmasters because i liked how they sounded, i hate too, since flows are everywhere but they sound nice you cant deny that.

or i thought about throwing some turndowns on the bullets to quiet to down some but i doubt it would do much


got any other suggestions for a good sounding muffler, i reall am leaning towards a chambered muffler that has a tone to it, not a resonator style like bullets or other loud stuff.

i have bassani on mine and love the sound...people always comment on how good it sounds but it is a bit loud so maybe not for you

i like my macs, kinda quiet with the cats still on there, but they put out a good tone.

I will let you know how I enjoy Spintechs in a couple weeks. And if I dont like them, I will let you know about the next muffler I choose!

I LOVE my Magnaflows, they are dumped with an O/R H-Pipe and are quiet below 2,500 RPM with absolutely NO drone...then once you get on it above 2,500 they scream! They are not abnoxiously loud and sound really nice, I will never put another set of mufflers on my car.

Pypes Violators. They have that "hollow" sort of sound that Flows do, but more raspy without sounding nasty/gross or farm-truckish at all, and they don't drone.

get slp lm1 resonators. quietest mufflers out there

 

[Kabuki_notch]

spintech's my buddy has them on his car sounds so sick

 

[TheUser]

if you want to quiet it down, put on some tail pipes....that'll make it a lot quieter, but won't change the tone necessarily.

I like the flows, but some day I might try something different, who knows. If you haven't visited www.MustangExhaust.com, go there and check them out. The only thing is I don't think it lists if it's dumped or with tailpipes, etc.

i put tails on my bullets for a awhile, but still wasnt happy with them! did quite them down alot and changed the sound alot!

so i went back to flowmaster! but still am not happy

i will try macs or spintech prostreets next

[blackened88lx]

Mac. Or anything but flows.

 

[Mustang5L5]

Both my Mustangs have flowmasters....so you know my vote

 

[PeteyAce]

a friend of mine has the slp for his 90 lx sounds like garbage to me, when he downshifts the exhaust crackles and pops which i like but sounds like complete noise when he floors it.

dont go back to flows, if your gonna change try something new like magnaflow or spintech.

 

[Foxfan88]

i may just stick with bullets, i realized they arent so bad after all.

i went to the drag strip yesterday and saw alot of mustang with flows on them sounded nice but the ones that had a cam, you really couldnt hear the cam well and the whole car just sounded muffled bad lol.

with the bullets the cam sounds meaner and when your flooring it it wants to scream i never hear it as much since i dont really hot rod it around town much

i will try some turndowns i can get them for cheap and weld them on myself. i will see if it changes it or tames the sound a bit.

also would going from a shorty headers to a nice long tube change the sound?
