Dave, I would definitely recommend you go for it next chance you get. I was a little hesitant at first myself, but after having them on there I am very happy with the results. I would recommend the cross-over though, just to help balance the airflow between the 2 mufflers, otherwise it souns a little tinny.

Thanks, I'll remember the cross-over. So just to double check, it is 6 into 1 into 2 with a cross-over before the mufflers right? Excuse me for being a little naive.

Yeah, I had them replace the U-Bend and Resonator with straight pipe as well. But yes... that's correct. headers into the cat into 1 til it splits, crossover before the mufflers.

Oh sorry. I got it all fabricated from a local muffler shop. In the end it only ended up costing me $458.00 I'd say that's not bad for Flowmaster cat-back yeah? Probably cheaper than getting it off the internet, unless you weld it yourself.

This has been an educational thread. Thanks, SoCal.

Curious...what is it like at WOT? Some people told me that my dual glasspack straight pipe exhaust on my 1990 Silverado was annoying at WOT because it was so loud. It actually sounded like the Charger Vin Diesel drove at the end of "The Fast and the Furious."

It's kind of weird actually. But at wide open throttle it actually get's quiter. When you are excelerating it's pretty loud, but at WOT the drone of the engine sort of drowns it out. I guess you would just have to hear it to understand. Although, I have never heard it from outside the car, but inside it's not that loud.

Excellent. That's what I wanted to hear (or, read, as it were).
