I got a 50 series with a turndown pipe. Its got a good sound. I think I would do a straight pipe to the back though. Having two 3" tailpipes sounds much too large for the 3.4L...as in not enough backpressure. I wouldn't do that.

 

On my newly aquierd 87 4Runner,it has 2" piped all the way back to a Flomaster 40 series,It sounds beefy!,My 88' 4runner is stock with the pipe rusted off after the cat. It sounds mean but it is more import like and gruffy ,where the flomaster is thick and smooth sounding.

 

I am also looking as a 50 series flowmaster. I have the same problem with them only selling flowmaster...

I have heard a few sound clips and i think the 50 is the best for me as it is nice and deep but not a ricer sound. Plus i don't want something that will overpower my sound system!

 

I vote for the 50 Flowmaster....thats what I have and it sounds great (not ricey). Stock pipes and a nice tip is what I'm running with it.

 

hmm thanks guys, i've always liked the dual look but i guess your right about it being to much for just the v6. anybody have any suggestions on just a single tip then? i was thinking maybe a 2 and a half inch w/ a angle cut? any suggestions?

and SC4runner could you give me about what you paid for your set up?

 

sorry for the double post but my friend said if i didn't have them take off my cat. converter the flowmasters really wouldn't be loud at all or even noticable. i was wondering if this was true, because my dad i'm pretty sure will not let me get it taken off.

 

i got a 3'' magnaflow tip also i had a flowmaster delta 40 on my 22re with a header it was LOUD

clicky

 

i doubt i will get a header as my budget is only about 210 dollars.

 

ahh muffler and tip installed about $150 bucks

 

do you still have your cat on your system? my dad said i should keep mine on because its illegal to remove or something?

 

leave it on there you will see no change with it off besides the smell its not wroth it

 

kk well then i'll be going up to my local muffler shop tuesday and pricing and seeing about getting it installed. i think i decided with the flowmaster 50 series. i wanna run it catback but if not, just a tip like your running will be just fine

 

This muffler sounds incredible. I still can't get enough of it after 5+ years on my own 4Runner.

 

i ended up getting a flowmaster 40 series single in dual out with 3 inch tips. it sounds pretty good to, not as loud as i though it was gonna be.

 

Sloan,

Are you Able to run around town with the rear window down? I had a magna flow installed I got home drove around town and had to call back to get the OE reinstalled due to the noise, like a ricer. I suspect I may just try the Flowmaster 50 Series like BruceTS.

 

yea i usually leave mine down. its not a rice sound, but its still not as deep as i wanted. it sounds much better after a few days of riding around now then it did at first.

but yea if they would have had the 50 series i would have gone with that.
i should post some pictures and maybe a sound clip soon

 

Did you notice any loss in lower end torque driving around town? I would think duals would do that to a engine like ours because the extra flow seems like too little back pressure.

 

I haven't noticed any loss.

 

magnaflow is just a little quieter than the flowmaster, thats what i went with and it sounds great.
