Im looking into new exhaust. I currently have dumps, and need tails. The catback Im looking into is the flowmaster. I notice they have a few different ones. Im looking for a nice loud setup, so would I go with the force II, or the American thunder?
Also, I need a new h or X pipe. Dr gas was recomended to me, and I was wondering If Dr Gas has dealers, or if I had to go through them directly. Thanks.

If you want a nice lil rumble form you ride? Go with 40 series flows and an o/r H pipe!!!! Great set up!

Dave

american thunder uses the 2-chamber flows which is louder/deeper than the force ll that uses 3-chamber flows. pretty sure dr. gas has dealers, but i dunno anywhere local.

Why not try something different. I like the sound of the Hooker aero chambers. That is what I am going to try next.

I think you can only get Dr. Gas through the mags and whatnot. To be honest over the years I have tried many types of exhaust and what seems to line up the best, sound good, last, and is cheap and easy to get is BBK- IMO. A friend of mine bought Dr. Gas x for longtubes and he had to spend alot of money to get the thing to line up right. There exhaust also comes in alot of pieces so you have to put it together and then have it welded. Good luck!!

so would you guys go with Dr Gas over a o/r H?
I was begining to lean twards a H pipe. The benefits of the H are sound, and it sounds like easier to install over the Dr Gas

The X gives the car a slightly higher tone than the H. Are you going with long tubes, or shorties? I liked the sound of the X.
Here is DR Gas' X pipe, looks a lot like the flowtech brand and their website: http://www.drgas.com/street-cat.html
