wondering if there is any catback out that has the flowmaster sound.....seeing that flowmaster doesnt flow as well

love the flow sound

put a regular flowmaster on there, like a 40 series. they flow better then their crossflow design for our cars and still have the same tone. my wife's durango has a deltaflow 40 series and it has a great tone and it carries a long way.

would a 40 series flow 'right' not being crossflow design tho???

this is what i would do run a single inlet 3" dual outlet 2.5" muffler like a flowmaster or summit series muffler (pictured) where there is no cross flow involved.

And run it the way magnaflow has their catback pictured, where one of the exits takes a 180* turn so it has tips on both sides.
That setup would provide the best flow and would still give that awesome sound. I think this setup would be similar powerwise when compared to most catbacks, you can kind of see the flow the summit muffler has according to the weld spots in the picture i provided.

also debating on a tsp rumbler

Just run a cutout before the catback, then the catback will no longer be a restriction and you can keep the flowmaster sound!

nemss1

oh ya thats true. ya i may get a qtp elec. cutout now

you could add a pair of 2.5" flowmaster one chamber to it.

Why even bother with the dual out muffler then, the 180 bend would still be a restriction. The Single out setups have always been more efficient.
Heres a pic of my Mufflex 3.5" setup with a Flowmaster 30 series Race Muffler.
It has the single turn down tip and makes for a clean rear appearance.

ya that is true but i was thinking he would want to keep the dual tips. but he did not specify.

nemss1

yes would like to keep the dual tips. dont really like the magnaflow setup. the borla adjustable is growing on me. any ideas on a light-weight catback???

nemss1

anyone know of a catback system that uses a bullet-style muffler that has a mild tone?

(dont want as loud as LM, GMMG, tsp, borla etc)

how about 1 chamber FM knock offs?

they sound EXACTLY the same as the 1 chamber flowmasters... but instead of being 100$ each they are 30$ each..

sound AMAZING! flow AMAZING!

that gets my vote hands down.. i love mine to death, wont ever own another exhaust setup..

nemss1

i cant seem to make up my mind but now i think ive set my mind on a bullet style catback for great flow and weight. just dont know of any as mild sounding as the flow 80 on my car at the moment. dont want anything loud

just my opinion.. the 1 chambers are going to flow almost just as good, and also are going to be a bit quieter.. also, they are the same price..

any muffler that flows very good is going to be on the loud side... bullets, cutout, 1 chambers, etc..

nemss1

what are some of the lightest catbacks out???

iTrader: (71)

honestly man.. i dont really know.. my exhaust stops at the axle.. and i never even looked into catbacks.. i knew i was either going 1 chambers, bullets, or similar..

i heard bullet type mufflers and hated them.. .heard 1 chambers and fell in love, never looking back...

they are very lite also..

nemss1

its cool man, ill figure something out. ya im looking for a catback setup w/ dual exits, mild-sounding and light-weight
