hey guys, just got a flowmaster 40 series put on the truck. drove 5 miles and i hate it already but, i needed a muffler to get into an ORV park here in Michigan
to those who have flowmasters, how do you hear these things????? with all 4 windows down i wound it up to 4500 RPMS before i even started hearing that "familiar flowmaster sound" and even then I could barely hear the exhaust note.
It might all be mental but it feels really restrictive when accelerating too, I wish i had my straight pipe back

Which one do you have?
There are the 50 series, 40 series, deltaflow and more.
Try adding a 18" long uninsulated 3.5" or 4" tip to amplify the tone.

If you're used to the sound of a straight pipe, I'm not surprised that you can't hear a Flowmaster. It won't be nearly as loud as that.

I love my flowmaster, it is just a regular flowmaster 40 and I thought it was pretty loud, but then again I have had open pipe for a while too and that was sooooooo loud it got insanely annoying after about 10 minutes.
I also have a hi flow cat but I am not sure how much of a difference that makes.

couldn't stand it anymore and after talking, begging, pleading with the ORV park they agreed that my 4.3 with a straight pipe is not going to be louder than the big blocks with stacks they let run out there. so the flowy's gone and the straight pipes back on......ahhhhhhh the sweet sound of exhaust again!
by the way, anybody want a flowmaster 40 series? only 200 miles on it and I'll even throw the stickers in too . PM me if interested
