don't you hate it when someone asks, "is it spelled with a C or a K"? and you reply "K" ....then they say, "oh, is it e-r-i-c-k"? You say, "um no, it's e-r-i-k"

Back on topic.. I have 3 mufflers still sitting in boxes... the OG Flowmaster 40 series to be installed on my yet to buy trail rig, a Flowmaster 40 Delta series to be installed on my '96 4runner, and a Flowmaster 50 series to be installed on my Acura Integra.

Why Flowmaster? I once had happy results with a new cat-back & Flowmaster muffler installed on my old '83 GMC Jimmy. Ever since then i've been sold on Flowmaster wether they have pure stainless steel or not.


Also, this may be from their website but it's still worth reading...

The Flowmaster Advantage:

Flowmaster vs. "straight-through" muffler designs

First you need to understand the technology of a "straight-through" muffler design. "Straight-through" muffler designs utilize a packing material wrapped around a piece of perforated tubing to absorb sound as its traveling through the muffler. This internal tubing is generally reduced as it enters the inlet of the muffler to help achieve a further reduction of sound as its exiting the muffler, smaller hole, less sound. At the same time this creates a further restriction for hot exhaust gases traveling through the mufflers.

Why should I buy a Flowmaster?

* Since Flowmaster mufflers use sound energy cancellation technology, you don't have to worry about "packing material" deteriorating and getting louder after as little as a few months.

* The interior case volume of the inside of a Flowmaster muffler is far superior to that of a "straight-pipe" or "straight-through" muffler design. Imagine filling a "straight-pipe" or "straight-through" muffler with water vs. filling a Flowmaster muffler with water. Which one do think would hold substantially more volume?

* The deflector in a Flowmaster muffler acts as a one way check valve eliminating reversion back to the engine and creates a low pressure area to help scavenge the exhaust.

* Flowmasters unique style of H-Chamber designs help control interior resonance inside the cab area of your vehicles. "Straight-through" muffler designs cannot.

* Flowmasters use fully welded construction for added strength and durability to last even when installed on high horsepower engines.

* Flowmaster mufflers are made in the U.S.A.
