Mach 5 Posted August 11, 2006 Author Report Posted August 11, 2006 what engine you got? Are you in the same situation as me with the gen 1 version of the dual exhaust? Quote
mfewtrail Posted August 11, 2006 Report Posted August 11, 2006 Flowmaster isn't the flow master. Get Magnaflow. Ok, I guess I'll defend the flowmasters once again. On a test of a modified fox body mustang I've seen before, the stang made 369.4hp/331.8 ft-lbs of torque w/ flowmasters. With magnaflow mufflers, it gained a whopping 3.4hp and .7 ft-lbs of torque. Point being = there's no way in hell you're going to gain much of anything from using either muffler on one of our low hp engines(unless you're turbocharged). You should choose a muffler that sounds best to you. Just for reference's sake, here's a listing of all the mufflers tested on that fox body and how they stacked up. "1.Flowtech Warlock (open) 374.2 hp/ 333.1 tq 2.Bassani Real Street 373.7 hp/ 333.8 tq 3.Hooker Maxflow 373.5 hp/ 333 tq 4.Borla XS 373.3 hp/ 332.6 tq 5.Magnaflow 372.8 / 332.5 tq 6.MAC 372.3 hp / 331.5 tq 7.Flowtech Afterburner 372.3 hp/ 330.1 tq 8.Hooker Aerochamber 372.1 hp/ 330.4 tq 9.Bassani 372 hp/ 333.5 tq 10.Spintech 371.6 hp/ 332.2 tq 11.Edelbrock Performer RPM 370.9 hp / 331.3 tq 12.Borla XR1 370 hp/ 334 tq 13.Flowtech Terminator 369.5 hp / 331.3 tq 14.Dynomax Ultra Flo 369.4 / 333.2 tq 15.Flowmaster 369.4 hp / 331.8 tq 16.Flowtech Warlock 366.3 hp / 325.3 tq 17.No muffs 365.2 hp / 330.1 tq" Quote
97loudcut Posted August 11, 2006 Report Posted August 11, 2006 I have the 3100 SFI and i also have aluminized catback pipeing, a high flow cat, and a resonator along with the muffler.. and i didnt say anything about adding HP so Quote
Mach 5 Posted August 11, 2006 Author Report Posted August 11, 2006 I think Im going to check out a junker to find a Y-Pipe so I can install the magnaflows. So do you think a glass pack is needed for these. Quote
97loudcut Posted August 11, 2006 Report Posted August 11, 2006 noooooooo glasspacks sounds like ass Quote
ToroToro Posted August 11, 2006 Report Posted August 11, 2006 Too much raspiness sounds like ass too though. Try them without a resonator, and if you dont like it, add one. Quote
Brian P Posted August 14, 2006 Report Posted August 14, 2006 reonator > glasspack I thought that's like the same shit, only the "glasspack" has a little extra "stuffing" Quote
