I run flowmaster 40 series only and mine sounds pretty nice.

My near future plans are to replace the resonator with a glasspack and get rid of the u-bend.

Is your current system stock??

I would look at a Borla system if you have some $$$$ to spend on it.

It's suppose to get rid of rid of the V6 drone and make it sound much deeper. The u-bend removal is worth an additional 8HP.....

Your local muffler shop should be able to make that for you with no problem.

Just make sure he/you think through the new O2 sensor location.

So the 40 series sounds good huh? You have the SS right? I need to figure out what to go with on mine, 40 series or 50 series. I want something that isn't obnoxious, yet has a sporty, semi-noticeable tone to it.

THE 40 SERIES SOUNDS GREAT. I JUST HAD MY 98 MONTE Z34 DONE LESS THAN A WEEK AGO WITH THAT SET UP AND I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER.
