Looks nice, but both your sound files have the same name too them, so they must be the "before" one.
I typed in http://66.75.118.29/flowmaster_0002.wav and got the after one.
The after one sounds much better.

Very nice! I was fairly set on Magnaflow, but I think now I'll check out Flowmaster a little more before I decide on anything. I'll be anxious to hear about your impressions after you've driven it a few days.

SLC Punk,
If you don't put a big tip on it, the Dynomax will probably be okay and not drone. A big tip is going to act like a megaphone and enhance resonance and drone. Also, Flowmasters can be drone-y. I know a lot of muffler guys who do not like them.
Crapfully Yours,

PS I'm not knocking L33T35T's setup, I'm just giving you my opinion. It does sound cool L33T, but I think it would give me a headache after a while on a long trip. I'm interested in hearing what you have to say about it after you've had it for 6 months or so.

I havent gotten on the highway yet... i dont go on the highway much as everything i need is around here.
If the sound is too loud inside the car (around 2000-2250 RPMs its really loud and almost annoying) I'll just crank up the stereo. did that this morning and couldnt even hear it

Nice man, it sounds great. Mine is most annoying at between 1600 - 1900 rpm. If I drive at 50-55 mph it's loud. Crusing over 60 mph is much more quiet.
I did notice my fuel economy has dropped substantially. I'm still testing to find the exact cause but I'm confident at this point that my exhaust has a little to do w/it.
Anyway, I like the Flowmaster 40 from what I heard in the wav files.
