Moroso Spiral flows look like they flow like crap?

when you look down the pipe they look like they wont flow all that well at high rpm's. Am I just being paraniod? I dont want to put those on and flow crappier than my borla catback. that would defeat the purpose of switching it out.

yeah it open, but it sounds like *****. And I think its stupid how much the catback is worth so I really wanna fab up some duals and sell it. (I got the cat-back for free)

but thats one 3" that has to go over the axle, the duals will be two spiral flows that dont have to go over anything.

they are not the best flowing... if you wanted pure flow... a 3" dynomax bullet is the one you want.. there is basically NOTHING in the bullet.. but a perforated core.. see pic below..

You going to put 2 spiral flows in? Do that, AND put a bullet in the I-pipe. Should cure all your ills.

The spiral-flows will cost you a few hp on the dyno vs staight bullets but it wont be a ton on a true dual set-up that is overkill to begin with. The Moroso's on true duals wont be any worse than a 3" catback. I LOVED the sound of the spiralflow and got a lot of compliments when I had a single 3.5" dumped.

They will make more power then your Borla, guaranteed or Ill buy them from you.

To Kill that nasty rasp, make sure you have a nice free flowing junction. Even with custom y's ive built ive noticed the longer I build my merges the less raspy and more high pitch the exhaust note is when they join.

Spiral flows sound awesome compared to the others that are like a straight flow through. I love the spiral flows.
