Flowmaster 40 sounds like a Ricer

[Frank The Tank]

I got dual exhaust, and decided to run a flowmaster 40 after reading up on everyones reviews, and listening to sound clips.

I don't know what is wrong but it sounds awfull on my truck, I have dual 2.5 in exhaust pipe, 3in tips, a single flowmaster 40................. this is all after my ridiculous 3 catalytic converters.

But I opted to keep them in place, If I go back to muffler shop and get a straight pipe is it going to be too loud? I figure 3 cats should be doing some serious muffling on sound, but I can barely hear it now and when it does wrap up and I can hear it, it sounds like a civic sucking wind.

I'm disgusted at this point with it, I'm going to take it back tomorrow and I have to choose a glasspack, or straight pipe...... about the only louder options.

I'd rather have my truck sound like a ragged 6banger, than a ricer 4cyl....... but I don't want it to be excessive in cab on trips.
curious if anyone has tried different variations with triple cat setups and the 4.0.

if you hate it nowm youre really gonna hate it straight piped... steer the hell away from glass pack too.

what 40 are you running?

I've ran 5 or 6 different exhaust setups on my ranger..... Super44 rocked 'em all. (magnaflow, flow original 40, flow super 40, glass pack, dynomax ultraflo oval(




bottom line, all v6's regardless of muffler will sound raspy at high rpm's.

Yeah a glass pack makes the trucks sound like UBER RICE! and straight pipes are just obnoxious. I think my dynomax super turbo sounds pretty good on my 3.0L. They aren't that expensive I don't think.
