i was in the same boat as you with long tubes, ory, flow, and cutout. I hated it flowmaster sounded like crap after I did the longtubes and ory. I went with the hooker catback. I love it sounds very nice. Kinda quiet crusing around and on the highway but when you hit the gas sounds very argressive and loud but not to loud.
I already have one stupid loud car I did not want 2 lol. My camaro has a 383 with 1 3/4 inch headers with 3" pipe that is 2 1/2 feet long with 2 chamber delta force race mufflers (made by flowmaster) with nothing after. It sounds awesome but after 30 mins. of riding around i am like get me out of this thing. So I don't drive it much, mainly tralier to the track and I am getting 6 miles per gallon on the street with 114 race gas, kinda gets expensive if you go crusin lol.

How do they flow thow. The only other Dynomax mufflers I know of are the Super Turbos, and they're not exactly a straight through design.

hes referring to the Dynomax Ultra Flow mufflers...I had one on my 96 T/A and loved it, plus you can drop a tennis ball in one side and it will fall out of the other

I have an ultra flow muffler on my car. The exhaust goes almost straight through (with a little angle) and splits to the right tail pipe. From outside the car it is a hair louder on idle and a little louder at driving speeds. It is still not as loud as the truck exhausts. Here is a write up from another board I did
