Default Pypes race pro mufflers
Any body running the pypes race pro mufflers on their car? I'm thinking about getting one to replace my flowmaster because it drones too bad.

If you are how loud is it when cruising and at wot? I heard them on a mustang but that's a lot different than a y pipe setup like on our cars.

I'm bumping this thread as I'm considering buying a Pypes RacePro muffler and would like opinions, if anyone has one on their car.

Not my car, but I love the sound (LTs, ORY, Pypes catback w/ RacePro muffler)...

Inside the muffler...



Anyone running this muffler?

That Camaro does sound very good but I think that's a dual exhaust as it says dual cat back plus Pypes doesn't list a cat back for 4th gens on their website. If I am wrong tell me cus ill be looking for an exhaust set up here very soon.

Nah that's a single exhaust setup... check out the pics...

I can't find a Pypes catback for our cars but they sell an F-body specific muffler.

The sound clips above are of my car.

Pypes does have an axle back kit for the F-body but it is not listed on their website. They will soon have a complete cat-back available.

Here is another sound clip

Damn that sounds good, but how loud is it compared to other crossflow mufflers (Magnaflow, Hooker, etc.)?

I am not sure I understand your question? Are you saying that you would like to know if anyone has heard this kit on a C5 VETTE ?

It just has QTP long tubes, off-road Y-pipe, and the Pypes cat-back.
