The 40 series "Orignal Flows" (supposedly a bit louder) or the 40 series "Delta Flow" (supposedly a more mellow exhaust tone). Or is there another product ID that I should be looking at?<br /><br />I'm personally thinking about going with the 40 series "Original Flows" to get that good 'ol badass Flowmaster sound.<br /><br />Any ideas/help is appreciated.<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />Also-my piping is 2.25" stock, right? and the outlets are 2.75"? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Toxicity of Dank</b> <br /><small>Member # 801</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,7,10,18,56,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Well if you are gonna go with flowmaster do the orignal seres...the delta flow dont sound nearly as good.

Full Borla with everything will prolly run about $700. But i think they are the best you can buy, for not only sound but performance. If you have a little money go with Borla...if not Flowmaster 40 series orignal with dual outlet will do just fine. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>93PONY</b> <br /><small>Member # 60</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2002,7,10,23,28,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> The 'Delta flow' feature is extra baffles in the 'power chamber' of the muffler to cut down on the interior drone.<br /><br />Flowmasters flow ~350-400cfm.
