Flowmaster Exhaust
 
I am looking at exhaust kits for a 2006 Silverado 1500 Z71. I have always liked Flowmaster the best so that's probably what I'll go with, but I can't decide between the dual exhaust with 50 series mufflers or the Muscle Truck system with Super 40's that has the tips right before the rear axle. Anyone have either of these setups or any Flowmaster setups and how do they sound? I was concerned that the 40's might be a bit loud, but I don't want it to be too quiet, so if I could just get some basic information that would be great.

Thanks,
Matt

I have the 40s dual and they are not too loud, but I recommend a single in dual out f you plan on a moderate buildup. If you have really bbbbbbig plans I can show you what I have and you will have a really free flowing system. prolem is you lose low end torque until you get your build up really going, but I can show you how to get alot back.

I have my exhaust unbolted at the flange under the passenger seat. Loud on the highway, but at full throttle, it scares the **** out of the ricer guys. Cheap, too....

i got dual 40 series flows dumped right before the axle. sounds real good. thinking about having it finished to come out the back tho.

Super 40's also dumped before axle.

The 40's will be loudest out of the two.. I love the sounds of flowmaster, but if you do a lil digging they really don't flow as well as they claim to. There are other systems out that flow more, magnaflow, gibson, hooker aerochamber ect just for a few.. But if your just looking for that sound, then your set.. :)
