well i just ordered a flowmaster 40 series and a header well i hope it doesnt sound like a big fart my dad thinks it will
and when i got my muffler today they accidently ordered two so they said they would sell me another for their cost so i was like sweet ok so i got an extra

i had the series 40 on my luv and i hated it. i think i lost alot of torque having it on there too
it wasn't loud at all, you had to be behind the truck just to hear it. i only had it on there for about a week and ripped it off and put my cherry bomb back on.
your's might sound a little better since you got a header to go with it..

i thought about dual exhaust but i dont know bout that
i also bought that header wrap stuff that will help out
next step is the ignition i might keep the points and buy msd 6al
cause a new electronic dist. is like 350.00 even though i hate points
any ways thats a different subject

well i ll see how it turns out and if it does not sound good then too bad
this lady tried to sell me this chromed fart muffler with a 4" tip on it
its too bad you cant get a v8 sound out of a lil 4 cylinder

Yeah it really is too bad but mostly all they sound like is a overgrown chainsaw.....

no I meant put both mufflers in line.
that might muffle it enough to where it doesn't sound bad.

aaawwwww i see

Buy a Dynomax superturbo.
Cheap and have various sizes . Not to loud
Otherwise get a 2 or 3 chamber turbo.

You dont want a loud car knowing youhave nothing to back it up.
Yes like them Honda kids who put a big can on there. The day before it was the size of the pipe was a straw.

That Bee in a can sound!!!

Yep thats what i mean

wat size piping are you running through it?

I said no to drugs....But they just wouldn't listen!

No matter how good she looks, some other guy is sick and tired of putting up with her crap!

2" pipe is what i bought

lemme tell you all header wrap sucks to put on the pacesetter headers

well the guy i work with his ex wife came in to pick up the kids at our shop. anyways
she has a toyota with the stock manifold and a 40 series flowmaster and doesnt sound to bad on it, its not like the import sound every one goes for but it sounds good to me phew i was worried i think it will be alright actually

also i got to set up the dual sidedrafts on my truck too that might help the sound with flowmaster i ll just experiment
better to do it while your still young its like a guy told me you can play in your youth and then their is a 40 year waiting period to play again retirement

i bolted the header up by itself and was curious what it sound like holy crap it sounded like a 4 cyl from hell i hope it still gets most of that deep sound i think its gonna gonna sound real good and tomorrow it will be done i hope

alright its done and its sounds good the thing i like about it is that its not annoying loud sounding

to tell you the truth i dont notice anything far as power increase maybe a lil its bout the same or lil bit more

altogether it cost me bout 250 dollars for header, (1) flowmaster, 2" pipe, and a guy to put the bends in it and weld it up

i said no way i am putting this together cause i had to go under a crossmember then it crosses over to passanger side over a crossmember then over the rear axle thats a lot to bend i got it installed for 45 dollars not bad

well now i am not goin with a turbo charger but their is always supercharging which i am gonna check into

by the way if i do put my dual carbs on it will my exhaust sound louder cause more air is being fed into the engine

i ll take some pics here shortly so keep a look out

good to hear you got it on the dual carb will make a complete diffrence in sound and power

my pacesetter with header wrap

my flowmaster mmm hmm

the collector which is almost next to the crossmember

it sounds like a mild v8 actually even at idle i am happy though

cool man i never knew the header pipes for so large.

so ya i havent ever heard of header wrap...what is it and wuts it for and is it expensive? Have you noticed any power differences? Lose low end torque??

it keeps the exhaust heat away from the engine.
