Unless it's going to be 2 flowmasterS, stay away. They have great sound, but not so great performance.

You guys can thank scumbag HorsepowerTV for only ever installing Flowmaster products, causing new people to always want to install them on their car. I remember I ran out and got the catback when I got my car, before I found this site. Few weeks later I installed my Rumbler.

Yeah, I'd probably look in the dumpster behind a performance shop. This guy I know gains over 50 rwhp when he opens his cutout vs. through the flowmaster.
