I have a confession to make......
 
I love the sound of the 2.8 v6 thru flowmaster mufflers. There, I said it. Cast stones, throw tomatoes, do what you wish. But I'm sticking to it. Sounds good. Makes me grin.

Some people like to hear themselves fart. To each his own

The intermediate pipe on my 92 Firebird with the 3.1 went after I bought it. The whole length of the EWS split open, so I put my Borla on it, since I already had it from my other car and the car was apart. I thought it sounded pretty decent too, as did others. The Borla is pretty mellow, but other people said they wouldn't have thought it was a V6 either

Now that's a good laugh. And I had flowmasters on a v6... I didnt like it at all. Quite honestly the only thing that ever made it sound good was a turbo.

I have headers, no cat and a flowmaster 44 and it sounds good till about 3-4k rpm. I love the idle, especially with my cam.

FWIW I heard a TTA and I thought it sounded really cool honestly.

Thanks! The Turbo will quiet it down some. It needs a repaint, I'm going with 1979 Nocturne Blue.

zs&tas I just saw a pic of your middle intake. damn you opened that thing up to the max didn't you. Sure is thin on the one wall. I've played with mine too but I don't have the guts to go that far
