sk-speed (sponsor) gave me a great price on 2 Flowmaster outlaw pros (those are bullet), I would PM Mike and see what he can do for you. Go on Flowmaster.com and grab the p/n first though.

Flowmaster 1 chambers hands down no question IMO. Since mine are placed in the rear over axels interior resonance or being to loud isn't an issue. Thats with a X pipe so I know that quietens it down quite a bit, even with no cats.

I had Bullets with and without a X pipe and ProFlows 1 chambers with and without X pipe. Loud is loud and I liked the 1 chambers better. Mine was dumped which will kick up lots of anything under your car. The bullet had a little more ground clearance but 1 chambers are a small muffler and can be tucked pretty nice. Only reason I went to the GMMG is its hard to pass inspection with a exhaust that dumps and I didnt want to do under the rear. Or side exhaust. The 1 chamber sounded more deep bass than a old farm truck sound of the bullet.

Did you extend the pipe out any or did you just dump the mini bullets short of the previous set up? I have Spiral Flows now and they end right before the rear axles with tips. I think the overall length of the bullet is 18". Added about 3" for a turndown. I'm wanting 1 chambers, but with the shorter case the overall length and placement of dumps is concerning me.

How do these compare to the 1 chambers? That's be great if they had 1 chamber type sound packed into the bullet shape that could go into my exhaust with minimal hassle.

Here is what I'm working with now.

Unfortunately no I don't. I have 1 picture on my profile under the car. I was on stock rear springs with the hose mod at the time. I did'nt have a clearance issue cause mufflers are close to rear. My sub frame connectors would rub more on crappy speed bumps. And My rear bump stops are in bad shape so would scrape on heavy dips. but did the same with the bullets.

If I recall correctly, the Flowmaster 1 chambers aren't very expensive either.

Anybody know if the 3inch 1 chambers will be a direct fit off the TSP duals?

No the outlaws are race mufflers, pretty much just to meet muffler requirements for tracks that have to have mufflers but have Db level. They are a straight through design with just perforation on the inside. You can get them in a long or shorty version. So packaging into a existing 3" dual exhaust should be a cut out the old weld in the new installation.

If I'm not mistaken I think BESstrokednova runs Outlaw Pros:

This is actually what I have and they sound amazing. Thicker case than flow master as well as being a few inches more compact.

They flow well enough to support 1000 hp and are basically designed for race applications. There isn't any restrictions what so ever compared to the hated/bashed 80 series crossflow that everyone rags on. I actually kinda associate tech with haters of flow master in general. If u mention having any type of flow-master exhaust the common response is to ditch it for a better flowing system. Even though I have true duals with long tubes I still get advice to run a dump truck sounding Slp loudmouth system, which is a glorified overpriced straight pipe mullet exhaust system.

My car had true duals with flowmaster 10s
best sounding fbody exhaust ive ever heard

its hard to hear how deep they are on a cell phone video. Its loud but not too crazy, probably a little quieter than the 3 inch y and lm1 that was on there as well.

Sounds like muscle... something about how the chambered mufflers sound at idle with a cam.

**** it, I think I'm sold on the 1 chamber flowies. Ideally I'd like 2 chambers but dont want to go through the work of making them fit. Although I have seen a setup that didnt require any type of BFH mod. I'm going to make a custom true dual over axle when I get around to installing my headers. I'm just worried about these things being obnoxiously loud. Sound quality? No question there. Getting pulled over for a loud car? G it's been so many years since that's happened, not something I want to start again.
