New Muffler Time!! SLP Loudmouth vs Bullets vs 1 chamber flows

ExplodingGopher · Sep 11, 2006

Same with me lol, nobody ever messes with me. And everyone always comes over to me and compliments me on how it sounds and asks what 7.5 on the fender means hahahahaha. I say to dumb people or ricers that that is my 0-60 time.

So im about to buy mufflers.. it seems like dynomax race bullets are the way to go?

strait pipes

savegoodautonfg · Mar 29, 2007

they have no tone to them tho.

just really loud.

fords2fast4u · Mar 29, 2007

yeah - i've had straight pipes on two stangs and its not exactly good. Sounds way too raspy

I have the 1 chambers and although i put my tails back on from the dumps i had so that i could talk on the cell phone in the car (back when i lived in the southwest and that wasn't illegal) i still set off alarms...

If i had the money, I'd buy Borla XR1's... but until then, 1 chambers are my fav. Nothing beats that flowmaster sound.

I wonder if the numbers from that chart were 2 chambers or 1 chambers... I'm gonna go with 2 chambers, because the 1 chambers aren't street legal i don't think. still would be interesting to see the difference in the two.

savegoodautonfg · Mar 29, 2007

1 chambers are just alot more expensive then the dynomax race bullets..

i wonder what the difference is the sound really is?

Anyone have both mufflers at any time?

Just a little info for you. The warlocks made the most power and I am assuming the db #s are capped because they are ****loads louder than flows when they are uncapped. They are loud!

You should make note with this that the Flowmasters used in that test were for a truck. This changes pretty much everything.

Not supporting nor knocking anything on their list, just noting that for reference.

with the bullets being dumped will the idle be alot louder then the flows dumped 2 chambers... because my neighbors already hate me..

Yes. The Bullets were loud as all hell on my car. That was the thing i didn't like about them, they didn't really have any range of sound, they were just LOUD from idle to WOT. Maybe i'm getting old or something but i'm bored with driving a car that's obnoxiously loud at all times. I want it to sound like it definitely means business and i definitely don't want it quiet, but i don't wanna have to yell to have a conversation while sitting at a red light or cruising down the highway. But when i step into the gas i want all hell to break loose.

With the Bullets, all hell is broke loose from the moment you turn the key...and that's awesome, i just wanted something different for a change. When i step on the gas, my setup isn't any quieter than the Bullets, it just calms down at idle and cruise speed.

savegoodautonfg · Mar 30, 2007

THanks for the great explanation bro..

basically flowmaster 1 chambers are like what you have now..

I wonder if the idle for those is alot louder then the 2 chambers.

25thmustang · Mar 30, 2007

Try something new, Borla Stingers, Bassani Race Mufflers, M55s, Magnapacks... All these sound killer on 4.6s, wonder how they would sound on a fox?

Honestly i don't really know how they'd compare to 1 chambers since i've never seen a cross section of one, but from looking at the muffler, it's pretty much the same size and general shape now, except the back of mine are in a V shape with the outlets at the tip of the V.

BTW they go by the name Delta Force One Chambers:
http://store.summitracing.com/partd...0109&N=700+400238+4294922710+115&autoview=sku

Also mine have an offset inlet like a typical 2 chamber and then the center exit out the back. I just got finished polishing up my welds so maybe i'll go out and take a cruise and try to get a few more clips. If it were me i would buy the Delta Force 1's over Bullets just because nobody is running them. Then again, if i were buying new mufflers right now, it would either be Spintech or SLP Loud Mouths.

Roland, tell me about straight pipes bro. Will I lose power if I just run straight pipes out the back of my headers to the sides in front of the rear wheels?

But now spintech are louder then the bullets or the flowmasters 1 chambers.

i heard the imco 1 chambers are the same as the flowmasters 1 chambers.

25thmustang · Mar 31, 2007

Spintechs I dont believe will be louder then Bullitts or SLPs. I have Spintechs with long tubes and an off road X and although it seems like its going to be loud, it wont be obnoxious loud!

PNW LSC · Apr 1, 2007

I'm running on SLP LoudMouth IIs on my '87 Mark VII and love them. They're pretty damn loud at WOT and are even pretty vocal under normal driving, but have no drone while cruising. The sound is a lot sharper than the MagnaFlows on a friends car, guess you could say the SLPs have more "bark."

savegoodautonfg · Apr 1, 2007

i figured slps are probaly the loudest "muffler" but the loudest after SLP LM would be race bullets i would think?
