OK i'm mostly sure they are dumb questions but I'd like to make sure

1. my mufflers are a little differnt, one is center inlet, the other is offset inlet "don't ask, and yes i'll change them later" did'nt think it would matter, but though i'd ask

2. As of right now i don't have tails, i have nothing after the muffers and it's way loud, when i get tails will it make it sound better?

Yeah Flowmasters sound nice on 5.0's with tails.Depending what kind you have will determind how much drone you will have.

Not sure.I really doupt it though. I used to have 3 chambered.Very little drone. 2 chambered flows are much louder and will drone alot on the highway between 1800-2500RPM's. 1 chamber forget it,loud ma hockers!!

It will lessen it but nothing to hold your breath for. Flowmasters are just loud period and for me, the drone is obnoxious.

i have dumped flows, they sound great with my BBK longtubes
they used to be "loud" to be but now I consider them normal
i only get compliments about the exhaust
