Dude DONT PUT FLOWMASTERS ON YOUR TRUCK!!!!!! I lost power with them and had them removed. I put Imco drag high flows on and I virtually have no back pressure with them.

I ran a 8.8 in the 1/8th with two flowmaster 40s. Other than that the truck was stock. So some people may have "lost" power but the dyno and the street/strip are two different things.

What are glass packs??
Shit man...this is making my life hard LOLRockin Ronnie said:Dude DONT PUT FLOWMASTERS ON YOUR TRUCK!!!!!! I lost power with them and had them removed. I put Imco drag high flows on and I virtually have no back pressure with them.
How much did those high flows run you?
So how much did the flowmasters run all you guys to install?
What does everyone recommend that I can do for exhaust to make it sound better but not spend a shitload of money. I'm very tight right now on money but I really want that truck to sound better. It's too quiet for my taste for a VIPER truck.

Its cheaper to yank out your cats.......
Get some 02 sims for a coupla' hundred bucks, cut out the cats and replace them with straight pipes in the section...weld it all back together...Put your cats in a box for smog day (if you have that in Florida)...
You'll instantly get about 25-30 hp increase and the sound will be VASTLY IMPROVED...:burnout:
Good luck...

Thanks for the quick reply Dr. D!!Silent D said:
We get no inspections here in Florida
The sound is gonna be a LOT different? Is that what you did?
What you think if I were to do that AND put that magnaflow cat-back system on?

Bro, I don't know dick about Flowmasters. So, if some guys say that they restrict horsepower, I could'nt agree or disagree.... I have no cats with the Borla unit on mine....
My solution begs the question as to whether the stock mufflers are better than the Flowmasters and my gut tells me no..... But again, I don't know dick about Flowmasters.... My guess is that'd they'd probably be better than the OEM mufflers...

I don't think I lost HP or TQ for my setup, I think it remains the same. I noticed more pull when I installed my Flowmaster, but I guess your results will vary. Also my install cost $160, including cut/weld/muffler. Can't beat that with any other setup IMO.
