Another happy customer flowmaster delete
A while ago I built this exhaust for a friend. We used a blowmaster american thunder catback

Eventually the droning got the better of him and we installed a resonator

Another year or so went by and the flowmaster drone pissed him off even more so we had to come up with a better fix.
Good news is we found a magnaflow 4th gen exhaust on craigslist for $50 the previous owner did some creative welding and cutting to eliminate the band clamps but I recreated the slip joints and made new hangers and his car is finally decent to ride in. No resonance at cruise, great sound at idle and sounds like a beast when on the fun pedal.
I have still yet to find anyone that was unhappy with the switch from dronemaster to magnaflow

Flowmasters sound good outside the car, terrible on the inside. No thanks.

Damn whats with all the Flowmaster hate? I love the low, smooth droning when cruising on the highway, always relaxes me at the end of the day!
