I have the flowmaster catback with an electric cutout. In my opinion, its too quiet so the cutout does the trick. I am actually thinking about switching catbacks because I would like something that sounds good when the cutout is closed. I really dont like the sound of the flowmaster.

I do like it alot. I just want to put different tips on it. I think the tips I got with mine are resonated like when you look in them looks like little baffles in them sort of like a fart can muffler but it has a good deep strong tone to it I just want to try some other tips first. She just loves the flowmaster sound we have had 5 fox bodys so we had flowmaster and mac catbacks on them but i want to keep the mac on there and do the long tubes and y pipe shopuld be even louder and deeper. I did see one dyno result of a Mac catback of 15 hp so it does flow pretty good. Sorry to anwser you yes I like it alot. lol

Typically the Mustangs use a Flowmaster 40 and the Camaros are stuck with the Flowmaster 80...sound different... A cutout option is good, so you can turn it off and on...
