Flowmaster exhaust

[Skoobie]

Ok I cant handle the resonance of this damn exhaust. Freeway driving is a SOB. I was wondering if you guys knew if Magnaflow catbacks resonated the same way? I had originally planned to go with an O/R Bassani xpipe and a Magniflow catback but put it on hold since the stang already came with a full exhaust. I need to spend a few $$$ on the suspension before I do the catback change, I just wanted to get some suggestions first on what makes for the best freeway drive. Thanks guys

i have dumped spintechs and there is no drone its very quiet and not raunchy and resonating to death like MACs or Flowmaster.

If you decide to go with another cat-back and yours is in decent shape I'd be interested in taking it off your hands. I sure could use something ...

yeah I got flows on mycar, it freaking resonates so bad I worry about my hearing. I got LT's, dr.gas, and cats this time around so it oughtta be easier on me ears. from what I hear, shorties tend to drone a lot, so do off road mids. but yeah, my flows resonate bad at around 2k. (this was with bbk shorties, off road mids)

If you want an exhaust that doesnt drone, just look for one with a straight through design like the maganflow. Any muffler with chambers is gonna be loud and drone like crazy.

what kind of spintechs are you running? i have sportsmans and they're great.

but on a warm day they do produce some drone, not terrible but there is a back ground noise. nothing like flowmaster. it goes away past 2500 rpm.

on a cool morning or into the night they're fine.

i agree... if you want to get rid of drone go with a straight through design. Bassani or Magnaflow.

I use the Hooker Maxflow straight through design.

Dont spend all the cash on a new catback... Just buy a pair of the right size mufflers and have them welded in.

(although in all fairness you could sell the flow catback and you may be able to install a new catback yourself, making for a swap that isnt as bad as it could be).

You can also pick up some power moving out of a flowmaster. For some reason they arent that good at providing power.
