Default Hushpower II

Hey, anyone have any experience with the Flowmaster Hushpower II? I'm looking for a quiet setup and have the chance to get some. What are your opinions? Thanks, Steve.

Why on earth would you want to hush up your car? If your car had a sack that would be like neutering it!

Because I don't want a cop to have any reason of pulling me over. Here's a video of the exhaust I currently have that's for sale: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nerjs4BdWMo

those mufflers are not really high performance mufflers

They started making them for street rods that needed custom exhaust because of tight space and quiet sound so they wouldnt be too loud. Alot of street rod owners like their rides quiet so they can enjoy them more.

I think the claim of supporting 400hp says it all. An LS1 engine already makes about 400hp at the motor if it has any mods at all done to it.

But if I have two (duals) then wouldn't you think it would be ok? I just really like the sound of duals yet want my ride as quiet as possible while still sounding good...

OK,.I see that you live in Smog **** California like me but you really don't need to worry. I've had my loudmouth(No mufler) for over a year and haven't had a cop even say anything to me other than "Nice car!".

Its your car so do what you want but I still think its wrong.

You want quiet and good sound? Pick yourself up some Borla XR-1's. Period.

Full-Force is correct in that those Flowmasters are complete ****.

I've heard that the XR-1s are a quiet bullet...

I still haven't heard anyone say an actual fact as to why the Hushpower II are shitty...
