Really need some input on this..
Really need some input on this..
Alright I have a 1990 firebird 350 TPI..stock motor but not the original..Anyways i have a question about my exhaust and the cheapest way i can achieve this. Im running a flow master single inlet dual outlet. Im not sure what series b/c it was on it when i got it. Although im pretty sure it's a 40's series. I have been wondering how much of a difference the super 44 flowmaster would make sound wise. My car sounds decent already but im just wondering if the super 44 would be a little louder and a little more aggressive? and i just planned on swapping my current one with super 44 and thats all until im not on a slim budget.. So would that show difference? and if not is there any others that would make a difference by just swapping the muffler?? (for the time being) Thanks for your help

From personal experience, I prefer the sound of the Hooker Aerochamber muffler to the Flowmasters', but that's my preference. However, flowmaster aren't known for being the best flowing muffleres, so yet another reason I went with the Hooker over the flowmasters.

+1 I have a hooker aerochamber on mine with hooker headers. Summit has them cheap and they sound great. I can shoot a video if you want to hear what it sounds like.

As previously stated, I like the Aerochambers because they have a good rumble but don't drone and aren't overly loud at idle, but when I get on it it really roars.

Mufflers do two things, affect the "sound" and the airflow of the exhaust. Getting the right muffler will help airflow and thus HP/TQ. Each muffler has a unique sound, some are louder than the others.
