Just got my 40 Series Flows welded in.....

[00BlackBeautyGT]

and why does it not sound as loud as everyone is talking about. It's somewhat louder than stock and that's it. The ones I got were the orginal 40 Series 2 Chamber. It's supposed to be louder than the newer Delta Flow. Are the mufflers suppose to break-in and then become louder? I'm somewhat satisfied but no fully. The muffler guy that welded them in is really skilled and made sure everything was in tact and snugged. Could it be my mid-pipe? Thinking about getting the Mac Prochamber to compliment my flows. What do you guys think?

Flows do take a week or so to break it. I thought mine were really quiet at first but they really started to come alive. the midpipe has a HUGE effect on sound. when i put on the X pipe with cats it was LOUD. if you are still not convinced have a trusted friend drive your car around with you following...you will be AMAZED to hear what your own car sounds like to others

What is the drone that everyone is talking about? I don't know how to identify that sound?

around 2,500 rpm...u will hear it...especially in 2nd gear...it's kinda start vibrating in ur car

with flows its about 2000-2200 rpm's you will here a loud "humming" inside the car. It seems like everyone hates it...but i personally love it!

When I first got mine, I wasnt blown away either... but give it a little while and I think you'll love them. Like mentioned above they might take a week or so to break in.

And definately let a friend drive your car and you'll appreciate them a lot more.

How much HP you think I gained from welding in those flows. I know it's not much but just wondering.

Exactly. Have someone else drive it so you can hear what everyone else is hearing.

If you think it is quite now, try riding around with an O/R h-pipe and getting used to that, and then take it off. You will swear your car has stock exhaust.

Congrats on getting your flows. I got mine about 2 weeks ago. I can tell the difference now and then. They are little louder now, more so when I get on the gas. Thats my problem now, I love the sound so much that I can't keep my foot out of the gas. I am gonna get an off road X pipe next. Just got my gear for Christmas and now need to get a chip. Trust me you will love the sound you get and I love the drone. Its music to my ears.

Very true.

Okay so I have to break my mufflers in before they get louder. Now my question to you is - Will they got ALOT louder or just SLIGHTLY louder than what it is. I just got them welded in today & the outcome was slightly louder than stock. Not what I was expecting.

heres how i found to break in two chambers. take them chunk them and weld some single chambers in their place. ive had a set for a year on my 03 and they are still loud. had 2 chambers on my 01 nice but not loud. single chambers are loud, cant wait to get my xpipe now.

 

[Wills Black 98]

they will get slightly louder, get an off road x and it will make up for it!

this will put a smile on your face i had my mechanic do that going around in the lot at the shop after the: l/t, prochamber, & cat-back install. he putted around for a second & then laid into it through 2 gears & i was like but until he did that i thought it sounded kinda tame. hehehehehehe

i hate when anyone else gets on my car!

he is the ONLY person allowed to do that, cause i know him really well, & he knows what he is doing . if it were anyone else they would have been dragged from the car & given the beating of their life
