Default New Warlock Mufflers for My True Duals...

I just took off my Bassani Bullets for Flowtech Warlocks. I really don't know of anyone with these mufflers, and I don't know why. They sound pretty good, pretty quiet, and then you can take the cap off and run open exhaust. The only issue I have at the moment is ground clearance, but they "clearanced themselves" on some speed bumps and now I rarely scrape.

I just thought I would share this with the LS1tech community since there are 0 posts about this muffler. I recommend it, and I will post a video and pics ASAP. (Already took them, just haven't posted)

For those who don't know, this is the Flowtech Warlock Muffler $65.88 from Summit. Payed $10 for both shipping.


Interior Noise = Hardly louder than a catback, if at all. I have no turndowns, and ends before the axle.

Exterior Noise = The cam is pretty loud, you hear it lope a lot. As far as loudness goes, it doesn't get too loud. Driving it doesn't echo off anything really, and my loudmouth, dynomouth, dynomax bullets and Bassani Bullets did that BAD! The idle is perfect IMO. (No cats 236/242 /601"/.610" cam)

Tone = I give them an 8-8.5 out of 10 on tone. I honestly feel that my bullets sounded better, but that was a raw sort of sound, and for a muffler I think Corsa's sound the best.

Quality = I give them a big 5-6 on quality. They smelled of fresh spray paint when I got them....because that is what they use. I can still smell the paint burning off, so I recommend that you paint these with high temp black paint before install. Other than that, my only gripe would have to be that there isn't enough treads to install an electronic cutout like I had planned. Oh well...it's metal and fabrication will fix that.

I am happy with these at the current moment, and my neighbors thanked me for making my car quieter. I like it because I can still run wide open at the track. If I had to do it all over, I would probably get something quieter w/o a bypass, and put a flange on the end of the pipes so I could put my bullets on when I went out the the track. Same **** as a cutout haha.

Good muffler, now go buy one people!

Those are pretty big mufflers, friend of mine with a 5.0 runs them.....I'm curious to see pics showing how you mounted them without them hanging low enough to clear pebbles off the road.

They are NOT that big. But my duals were built for a different muffler, I could have tucked them up more if we had moved the pipe. I have horrible clearance at the moment, but I am doing duals out the rear soon anyways.

I'd like to hear some clips too. I remember seeing these in Summit when I was a teenager without a car, always wondered what they sounded like.

I always wondered what those would sound like. Is the cap the same size as a regular 2.5" or 5" cutout? Just wondering b/c if it was, then somebody could get a pair of e-cutouts and mount up to them, space permitting and all.
