I just acquired a pair of flowmaster mufflers to replace my factory "zero chamber rustmaster" mufflers currently on my GT. I will have to modify these a little bit in order to install them, but I can't make up my mind on what to do with them. I like a good sounding 5.0, but I don't want it to wake the neighbors. The GT is currently stock right down to the air silencer, but eventually I would like to add headers and an offroad H or X pipe. The only thing I had to compare is my 91 LX which was 1 chambers dumped with headers and H, so everyone's input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

GT's you don't see the exhaust anyway so I say dumps sound nicer. On LX cars for a "stock look" then run the stock exhaust but for a "clean look" then dumps on a LX looks good. Its all personal preference.

ive got mac shorties and an o/r h pipe, 2 chamber flows and dumbs. its a nice mellow sound. car has an fcam in it. its not very loud, but it does resonate. the elderly couple across the street said they could hear it, but didnt mind. mine are angled so the sound comes right out of the wheel, so that the sound is more evenly distributed. cruising or on the interstate, its maybe 5% louder in the car, and at idle it really lets the cammed sound out. ive got some clips on street fire of a walk around if your interested.

Looks like I'm going to dump it just after the mufflers before the rear end, hopefully I can get it done before Christmas............. |

if your gonna be around irmo/columbia and wanna see/hear and go for a ride in the car let me know.
worst thing that happens is you have to weld the tailpipes back on later. just try to tack some turn downs onto the mufflers.
