Dynomax Super Turbos?

Crs · May 2, 2005

I'm thinking of replacing my 2 Chamber Flowmasters on my 68 with some Super Turbos, since i'm looking for a different tone. My current set up is 2.5 pipes, to an H-pipe, to 2 Chamber Flows, then dumps. I want the same set up with the new mufflers, except 2.5 pipe all the way back. Any suggestions how my 393 would like the new set up?

i just changed out my flowmaster 40's with the dynomax and i'm really pleased with the tone and performance. i using 2 1/2" all the way from the header to the tips and i've got an x-pipe.

With the new turbos, is it quieter than the flowmasters? How do you like the X-pipe?

I'm curious too. All I have to compare them to in my 5.0's Flowmasters and x-pipe. I'm looking at getting the Super Turbos with the inlet and outlet on the same end, if anyone can give input on those too..

X-pipes have a very distinct sound thats hard to explain.

I luv my Super Turbos, will never go to Dronemasters again!

Running a DR. Gas X pipe and LT headers off the 289. She's louder but not annoyingly loud.

Agreed on the X verses H Pipe sound differences. Hard to describe but both are neat in their own way, H pipe seems to make the car sound Meaner, more pissed off LOL.

I have MAC long tubes, h-pipe and Dynomax Super Turbos on a 2.5 in exhaust with my 289. They are quiet but not silent and they can be loud when you need them to be. I really like them as it has a distinct sound and is really deep.

You did not say if you want it quieter or not.

Ultra Flow (or Ultra Flow welded) are an option if you want it as loud as it is now, but with a distinctively diffrent tone.

Super tirbos will probably be a bit quiter, just depends what you are after.

they are quite a bit quieter than the flowmasters but still give a nice throaty sound.the droning is definitely gone. i can now let the car idle in the garage (door open) and not vibrate the whole house. the x-pipe seems to be working, i do notice a slight power increase.

I have the Super turbos with 2.5 mandrel bend flowmaster pipes and a H-pipe, love the sound and my 393W responds well.

I took off the 2 chambers and H-piepe and put on the super turbo's with an x. It is quiter, much less drone, and much much faster. Say to the tune of over 2 mph, in the 1/4

on the head to head tests ive seen, the turbos are much quieter until you floor it

then they are about equal to the flows in sound

I've got:
JBA shorties, 2.5" pipes, X-pipe and Super Turbos - Love it.

I have those mufflers. Using 2.5" pipe with side exits and an x-pipe. They sound great. No droning at all. Plenty of compliments on the sound. I wouldn't mid if they were a wee bit louder though

Anyone know if there is a bolt on kit for the 2.5" pipes and the x-pipe? One shop that does excellent work quoted me $500 without mufflers.

check you summit. if i remember correctly you can piece together a kit from a couple of manufacturers. an x-pipe from one and the exhaust from another, but you'll probably be near $500 when all is said and done.

I dont want to be a hijacker, but what about the Super Turbos with the inlet and outlet on the same end? I was thinking of doing side exits, but dont want to go deaf on the highway nor wish I'd gone louder. My 5.0's Flows and X give me a headache sometimes when the 2000rpm drone hits.

that would probably be a good medium...
i personally dont like side exits as it makes it much louder in the cab; but the super turbos are very managable while cruising

I spent 250 on mine. That was a 3in x, which is a little more. And I had to buy reducers to the get pipes down to 2.5 to go in the muffler. So your price will be a little cheaper if you go with 2.5. You will also had to buy about an extra 4ft of 2.5 straight pipe.
