Default Flowmaster Question

Had a quick question on Flowmaster. I have the American Thunder cat back. I have seen all of the discussions and was wondering if it is just the muffler that dosen't flow as good as other mufflers. Is there anything wrong wiith the piping from the cat to the muffler?

everybody seems to put down flowmaster, but I love how mine sounds and performs. As long as its large diameter it shouldnt flow much less than any comparable mufflers.

Yeah i really like the sound too. I have put them on every car i have owned and really like them. I am just worried that they might be robbing me of horsepower. But as long as it makes the same amount as stock i will leave them on.

There is nothing wrong with the piping. It's the crappy *** 80 series muffler that they use.

Flowmasters sound amazing, the 80 series muffler just seemed to be a big flop.
