I dont see you losing to much over another muffler if you do something get a cut-out all that BS about oh the flowmaster slows you down is just rumor BS tell them post a dyno graph or something if it slows down that much prove it. I said it before I only seen one guy with a dyno run same day same car flowmaster vs cut-out and he only lost 8hp with the cut-out closed and that was all top end.

I've done the test back to back on a heads/cam car. Flowmaster robbed 22 rwhp vs. a cutout on a 460 rwhp car. Switched on a Hooker Aerochamber, and picked back up the 20 rwhp.
The Flowmaster sounds decent (if you like sounding like a pickup truck), but is quite possibly (aside from Corsa or B&B Tri-Flow) the worst flowing catback and/or muffler available for F-bodies.

What testing have you done with Corsa?

Ok, show me some proof that someone put a flowmaster on a stock car and it slowed down, dumbfuck.
I didn't say that it was the best muffler out there. I sure don't run one. But there's no case where someone put one on a stock car and it slowed down, atleast without some other factor.
Even if that was the case its not "known" for causing stock cars to slow down. You and the guy that posted that before need to READ the threads and UNDERSTAND them before you post something.
Sorry, if this seems like an attack on you, but it was. Don't call someone out with expecting it back.

It nothing about getting but hurt I could care less I'm fine with the flows sounds good as **** and car runs strong the thing is you lames are trying to feed him this bullshit like he is going to gain so much by switching out the flowmaster its not worth spending a extra 300 for like 3 hp thats why I suggested getting a cut out if its that much of a problem, and I like I said before if you got the proof post the graphs until then eat a dick

The muffler that Flowmaster uses in the F-body cat-back makes it one of the worst flowing cat backs. They make some average flowing mufflers, but the one used for our cars aren't one of them. Just get a magnaflow cat back, one of the best flowing exhausts, cheap, all stainless.

You even posted in that thread.
And try using proper grammar.

I dynoed my old LE setup with the hooker VS the cutout and found a difference of 3rwhp (VS open cutout).
