All,

I just installed my Flowmaster Axle-Backs... They sound great, no noticable drone and the trottle response seems a bit better... No Dyno reading to prove it... just seat of the pants guess that together with the K&N and the reset (battery disconect) it does seems a bit peppier...

Also note that installation is pretty easy for a do-it-yourselfer in the driveway... Just remember the orientation if the hangers and all should go well... I took my time and it took me about 1.5 hours from start to finish... I work slowly but no mistakes or major problems noted... Of intrest, the instructions state "There are two hangers on each side with two bolts." What this means is that there are two 13mm bolts in EACH hanger, and two hangers per muffler.. that is to say there are four 13mm bolts for each muffler... here are some photos:

How about some pics of the new exaust from underneath and from the side so we can see how much they protrude from the body. Judging from the size of them and the length of the tips, it seems like they would sit farther back than stock and not stick out as far...also, how wide are those tips and are they slash cut???
Thanks, Dave

thanks...looks pretty nice , how large are the tips?That muffler looks pretty close to the body panel, are you worried about the heat at all, tipps are also close and dont stick out very far, are they shorter than other aftermarket axle backs?
Are the the one I was reading about, I think they were called extremes and they were specific for the 05 by flowmaster?

Dave,


Thanks for the feedback..

The tips are 4" O.D... Heat does not appear to be an issue there is approx 1/2" clearance between the tips and the valance... They are the Amercan Thunder series System (P/N) 17410 for the '05 GT... The "Extream" bit I'm unsure of... I can say they are only slighly (about 1/3 - ear-ball guess) louder than stock....

What's the advantage of getting SLP loudmouth's over just having an exhaust shop replace the muffler's with pipes and tips?

Who has heard the Hooker Aerochamber setup. I like how it sounds on their website, but am wondering if the soundclip is with the longtubes and offroad xpipe. Does anyone have it on their cars yet? I cannot even find a place that sells it on the web.

I just installed the Borla Axle-backs over the weekend and they sound great! Not too much louder at idle, but definitely there when you get in it. Also, the sound is much deeper. I would post a clip, but don't have a video camera.

Up in the top left corner of the website they have the sound clips.
