I have tried that before tho. I've tried many many combo's lol.

She's not tuned to run that way and most tuners won't tune a system like that anyway. Just set it up right, not like some high school punk lol.

Two High Flows and a good muffler.

My first was a 4 x 22. Then I went with a larger 8 x 20 I believe.

The Magnaflow sounds okay, but the Borla sounds better IMO.

Here's the 4x 22 - http://picasaweb.google.com/jbrew393...40433327124514

I have only this one of the 8 x 20, It's not much -

Yea, if flowmasters are still chambered, you don't want that. A Dynomax will work. I never paid over $60 for a Magnaflow Muffler. The High Flow cat were free - Actually I sold my old cats for more than I paid for the new ones.

$60 eh??? hmm... its a toss up between the Dynomax and Magnaflow.. Whichever is louder... I was also looking at Thrush mufflers, not the glasspacks... I wish companies would give you a cut open look still
