im gonna be getting a performance muffler and 2 tailpipes installed on my stock 97se to get some sound out of it right now i have the stock system on it with one inlet and one outlet i want something with a nice sound but isn't going to give me a headache after a while i want to have a nice deep sound and want people to know that im coming and going ive been kind of leaning towards flowmaster because i had it on my 91 gt 5.0 it was the american thunder 2 chamber i believe but i don't know what series it was but it sounded good even with the cats still on it your input would be great thanks guys razysmile:

Do you have a single in double out? That'* a series 80, if you have two mufflers, it'* a series 40. Here'* my car with a series 80. The video really don't do it justice.

yes i have a single in and single out right now but im gonna do the single in double out using the factory cat back will it still sound decent using them if i go with the 80 series it does sound good on yours would a 40 series be quieter or louder just looking for a decent clean sound but want people to know i have something on there

Typically a series 40 is run at a dual. I have no idea how a single 40 would sound.

does a 40 series have 2 inlets then usually found on older models?

As I understand it, a 40 is 1 in 1 out, a 80 is 1 in 2 out

ok thanks place im dealing with quoted me $150-$200 to do everything thats parts included he said with a flowmaster it would be closer to 200 he said there another muffler similiar to a flowmaster thats about 40 bucks cheaper but im going with the 80 series flowmaster and prob get some nice borla tips or something close to that have to stop down so he can do some measuring to make sure he gets the right parts

The Magnaflow is very close to a flowmaster. There is a slight sound difference.

With either muffler I think you will be happy. The Magnaflow'* have a raspier bark verus the Flowmasters which are a bit deeper at idle.

I have Flowmaster'* on my F-150 that I replaced Gibson'* for and I like. The Gibson'* just didn't have a throaty sound on the F-150, but I liked them on my 92 Exploder.

I had Borla on my ZX3 and that was anoying! Sounded like a ricer, but with a bass. I didn't like my neighbor then, so I left it on.

So from this post I'm sure you are confused and annoyed. The main thing to take from this is that not all mufflers and exhuast systems are the same, they all sound different on different vehicles and with different mods, and its totally up to you on what you hear and like. It'* not uncommon to take off a new muffler to change it up to something else if your not happy. Talk to your exhaust shop and see if they would be willing to clamp one or another on for a test drive before they weld it and your buy it.

Keep in mind that a new muffler will change it'* tone over about 2 weeks. It may sound a bit raspy at first, then deepen and mellow. I noticed this on mine.
