i have a 86 camaro sport coupe it has a l69 305 h.o its bored .30 over and its got headers, it has more power than stock and im looking for a muffler im thinking the flowmaster 80 but i want it pretty loud and iv heard the 80s are not very loud any suggestions?

 

Are you running a cat? Flowmasters don't seem to like cat's if you want to get a good sound out of them I had the Flow 40's on my old 5.0 Foxbody and with the cated H-pipe they were not loud at all, but once I got the catless H-pipe they sounded real good evern with tailpipes. I had the SS 40 Delta flows on my mild 307 Nova last year, 2.5" with Headman long tubes dumped in fornt of the rear axle and it sounded good! I just have a Summit Racing 24" glass pack in place of the cat with about a 1 foot spout off it and it don't sound bad at all on my stock LB9. If you don't mind not having 2 tips at the rear you could run a Flowmaster 10 1 chamder from the mid pipe in the stock location and just run a dump off it so the single exit would not been seen. Mufflers are a tricky thing to pick out as you know how you want your car to sound in your head, but alot of times that's not how they sound in real life.

 

yes i am running a cat i think the 10 series is probably a little too loud i might just ditch the cat and go with the 80 series, do you think it will pass emissions without a cat?

 

What kind of sound are you going for?

 

i doubt it will pass, depends where you live,. if you go with a 3 inch true dual doesnt matter how you do it, it will be loud

 

Im looking for a decently loud low rumble

 

I would love to do true duals but its just to complicated, and im broke lol

 

You want a Magnaflow muffler then.

 

ok thanks

 

maybe not every county, but in ohio your cars pretty much old enough not to worry about emissions
