I think im going to a different and FINAL exhaust setup.........I'm either going with a MagnaFlow muffler with Borla tip or the Pacesetter Big Bore Monza tip or FlowMaster 40 series with the the same tips.....Which one would give me the louder or loudest sound(i already know either muffler is and /or a good performance muffler) And should i beef the piping to 2 1/2 or keep it a 2 1/4(i had that put on this past summer when i did the exhaust i have now).Any help and intput is welcome.

Keep it 2 1/4"...no need to have it larger unless you will be running 250+ HP. And make sure to have an exhaust shop bend you a pipe without a resonator! :D

Already got cat-back piping yea,no resonator:) Honestly tho it didn't make my exhaust any louder then the first one i had which was just a fart can,almost still sounds the same without the resonator.

do NOT get deltaflow mufflers if your looking for flowmasters, Many people have told me (and i believe them) that they get louder after a thousand miles, but right now mine are really quiet compared to what i wanted, so if you want flows, get original 40's

i dont think anything beat the sound of a flowmaster muffler, so that would be my choice

I was looking at the original 40 series just cuz thats what ive heard some peole say to get.......What about the tip,which tip would help make it sound deeper? if a tip can change the sound at all

Personally, id just go with the regular 2.5" slash cut tips, they look badass IMHO

Single.

But if i had to pick of those 4 id say the second one, it looks the best, I hate those short big tips (and I dont like the yellow on the Monza)

Skip the Pacesetter tip because you will have a rustball in a few weeks. Borla tips are stainless, and therefore you pay for them.

I just got a Flowmaster 80 series. (crossflow like camaro style.) I dont have it installed yet. Im waiting for christmas break to take it in. Ill bost how it sounds once I get it installed. I have/had 4 vehicles with flowmasters on them. They take about 1,000 miles to break in and continue to sound better with time. (My opinion)

Who makes the second tip you have pictured? Im still looking for tips. Thanks

Im going with the second one for now,unless i change my mind when i get money for the stuff........The first 2 tips are made my Borla.I'll prolly get the second one in the 4inch OD outlet.Actually i posted the wrong one for the second,it should have been the straight cut,its cheaper by 10 bucks,but they are the same tip really cept the angle and straight cut.
