1984 Buick Regal Limited
Strength:
more exhaust flow, engine breathes better.
Weakness:
none at the moment!!! owner of a 84 buick regal, non turbo V6, she came with a stock 305 4brl chevy, sweet! dude! ha! anyway, still running stock manifolds and single exhaust, no catalytic converter(yuck). had a stock muffler, sounded ok but when WOT the muffler sounded like a rice burner(ha). so opted for a Flowmaster series 40, would have gotten an 80 series but chose the single inlet/outlet so no more mods. just an easy bolt on! thumbs up Flowmaster! and sounds quiet at idle! and thought there would be loud interior sound? hardly any!!! again go with the flow(s)!!! ha! Similar Products Used: better than a stock muffler and open straight pipe!!! |

Strength:
That Flowmaster tone! Everyone has tried to duplicate it but nobody has mastered it like Flowmaster. Sturdy muffler and looks nice.
Weakness:
None I love the tone but I have had them for over 6 months now and they are still not very loud unless you are very high in the rpm zone. Can't say that I gained much if any horsepower or gas mileage. Similar Products Used: Turbo's |

Strength:
I purchased the flowmaster exhaust because every one I know thinks that it gave the best performance. I have had it for 2 months and i have seen a big improvement in the low and highend power. It also gets about 60 miles better to a tank of gas and the sound of it is great.
Weakness:
nothing If i could give this a rating between 1 and 10 for the best exhaust, i would give it a big 10. Similar Products Used: None |

Strength:
THE EXTREMELY AGRESSIVE SOUND. THERE IS NOTHING LIKE IT. FLOWMASTERS ARE THE BEST PERFORMANCE MUFFLERS ON THE MARKET TODAY.
Weakness:
WHAT ARE YOU CRAZY? ANYBODY THAT DOESNT LIKE THAT LOUD LOOK AT ME SOUND SHOULDNT GET THESE MUFFLERS. I ALWAYA GET LOOKS WHEN I GET ON IT WITH MY FLOWMASTERS! Similar Products Used: IVE USED GLASSPACKS, DYNOMAX SUPERTURBO, RHINO TURBO MUFFLERS AND THEY ALL SUCK OUT LOUD. |

1988 Trans Am GTA
Strength:
I like the new sound i get when i accelerate, deep, hollow rumble, i feel more torque power to smoke those tires or to take an import at the light. Even in the cold i have my windows down just to hear my exhaust.
Weakness:
At an idle it sounds similar to the stock exhaust,was going to put on an 80 series and i think i would not have heard much of difference with that. Thought the 40 series would have been a little louder. Sounds very similar to my friends stock 442 exhaust. I have not had this 40 series muffler that long, but definetly good choice to go with flowmaster. Nice sound and performance added. I really dont know how it would sound on a 4 cylinder. My Trans Am is definetly now more of a head turner to see whats coming. My car used to eat gas up like crazy, now it is better, good for me. I went for this muffler even though the 80 series is made for camaros/firebirds, they did not have the right size for my car. So i got the 40. I am glad, i dont think i would have heard much of difference with the 80 series. THANX FLOWMASTER Similar Products Used: None |

1996 Dodge Intrepid
Strength:
Great sounding, makes my 3.3L Intrepid sound like a 5.0L Mustang.
Weakness:
None Gave me a price quote of 99.00 installed but the muffler set up was screwed up so they I had to pay 20.00 for custom pipes and installation. Better acceleration and an awesome sounding muffler for a car as heavy as my intrepid. Am going to put one on my 2000 Mitsubishi Montero Sport I like it so much. Similar Products Used: Direct replacement of stock muffler. |

1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme
Strength:
You can't really hear it at idle, but it sounds pretty deep and loud when your crusing around 2500rpm.
Weakness:
It could be a little louder. I noticed that it took quite a long time for it to break in and get descently loud, about a year!!! I would recommend it, but don't be expecting a big increase in sound for a while. With this muffler and a K&N filter, i probably gained not much more than 5 hp. Similar Products Used: none |

1994 Ford F250
Strength:
This is a solid exhaust system that will certainly turn some heads. I got it installed for $400 with new piping, and I can feel the power. You can set off alarms with this baby. I have a 1994 Ford F250 351W 5.8L V8. When you open it up, you can really hear it roar.
Weakness:
None, I love the Flowmaster sound I would recommend this to anyone that wants a sound that demands respect. Similar Products Used: none |
