It will sound nice, very nice. But many have shown very little gain with using Flowmaster crossflow setups. They are more for sound than power gain.

I put a 80-series Flowmaster on my car a few months back with a set of stainless steel polished tips for about $170, so you're getting a pretty good deal. The Flowmaster will sound nice-- especially under acceleration, but it won't be too loud. It's got a nice rumble...

I wanted more sound, so I pulled the Flowmaster off and put a Loudmouth on the car.
