I've been searching for a solid hour trying to find sound clips of flowmaster 40 and 50 series mufflers on a 3.4 and I found 1 and it had bad sound quality. I can't quite decide between the 50 and the 40 and I'd like to hear some clips to help me decide. I like a loud exhaust(I'm 18) but only if it sounds good. I think I might go with the 40 but I don't want to have a rice sound to it.

 

it's gonna sound like a v6 no matter what muffler you've got on it.

 

not that good of sound quality but better than nothing

 

I don't have a sound clip. But, I have a 40 series behind my 22re. It kinda sounds like:

"BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM"

If I pin it in 3rd, it kinda goes:

"BROOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHH"

 

Not true. I had a dumb kid ask me if I had a v12 in mine. Not even joking too. He pulled up next to me and asked... I was like, dude... no...I got a v16

 

is there a standard size/model that most 4runners are running with the 3.4v6 motor?

 

the vortex cherrybomb is really popular with this crowd. check it out at jason burtman's site at www.burtmanindustries.com

 

I think I might go with the 40 series because from the 3 or 4 clips I've been able to find I love the way it sounds at idle and while at low rpms driving. Also I can get it pretty dang cheap, ~ $60. Then I'll probably clamp it to see if I will for sure keep in on there. If i don't I have a old ford that needs a muffler.
If i get it and its a little too loud(i don't think it will be) what could I do to quiet it down some? Would running a 2.25" pipe to the muffler then a 2.5" out the back tone it down some?
One other thing, Do i need a 2.5" inlet or a 2.25" inlet to be able to clamp it?

 

If you still have a cat/conv it will make no diff which F/M you use.With no cat one will be a little louder than the other but both will have that great F/M sound.It's the only muffler I'll ever buy again!And they still sound awesome even on a V6!
