Default not impressed with dynomax bullet!

my brother had a one chamer flowmater on his car and thought the dynomax bullet would be louder and have a better tone. that was wrong the bullet was a lot quiter and did not have near as good of tone as the one chamber flowmaster. i know the flowmaster is not the best flowing but is one of the better sounding mufflers. i dont know about the slp loudmouth how are they compared to the one chamber muffler and the bullet? louder? ps i like the raspy sound.

I have a dynomax bullet and everyone that hears my car likes it must be you. Your also complaining that the dynomax is quieter just shows the quality is better.

That's true. Not all flowmasters flow bad. Exhaust sound is about preference. Plus, the same muffler can sound different on different cars.

This is true, i had a normal universal 3" 40 series 2 chamber on my old LS1. and sounded awesome with long tubes and i believe it floed pretty well.

flowmaster single chamber


flowmaster 80 series = chokemaster (inlet on bottom left)


i used to have flowmaster's american thunder catback (was on the car when i bought it) and it had the 80 series muffler. when i switched it out, i could feel the difference.

personally, i prefer a straight through bullet muffler, but if i ever got a noise ticket, i'd probably swap the TSP rumbler bullet muffler for a flowmaster single chamber.

"X" pipe, and Dynomax bullets with pre-axle turndowns here, sounds great but not too loud. I just don't see how any muffler that reverses the flow direction (I.E. Flowmasters) can be as free-flowing as a straight through...

I have had my TSP Rumber 3" Catback (which has the Dynomax bullet muffler in it) with Pacesetter LT's and ORY for three and a half years and lived in 6 diff towns in 2 states since then. I have never been pulled over for my exhaust being too loud. And its not quiet lol. Even when I travel, no problems.

I can tell you I used to run the loudmouth with my headers and catted ypipe and now i have the TD's dumped with bullets and the sound is 10X better. Sounds less raspy and is alot more of a low rumble. I absolutely love the way mine sound with my cam. Everybody has their idea of what sounds good. just by .02
