I have it, AND I LOVE IT!

At Idle, and crusing, it has a nice low rumble behind it. And when you get on it, NICE DEEP sounding! SOUNDS Great inside and out. I absolutely love them, and get nothing but compliments how my exhaust sounds!

well, being thats the only muffler (suposively) that FlowMaster makes, and i'v heard one on a 5.0L and it wasn't too loud for me. SO i think im gonna try it for a while, if its too loud then i can probably find someone to sell it to. But my main problem was i couldn't find another muffler to fit that i liked that was under $150. so if anybody has any more info on other mufflers id be glad to see.

but one question, is the 80 series LOW (basey) or just kinda loud? cause as long as its low i wont mind the loudness for now anyways, i should be getting a "daily driver" soon so i will have two cars.

It sounds great, but you should get a 2 1/2 inch pipe. People think that a 3 inch exhuast is good, which it is, but it is so quiet. Get the 2 1/2 inch pipe, loud all the way around. Loud at idle loud at WOT. Go with the 80 series
