All I can say is wow. I love the sound. I started my car without mufflers on and it sounded like a beat up chevy pickup. The backfiring was cool though. The install went very nice, it was easy to install. Took about 30 minutes to do both. Anybody can do this.

I had to rush to beat the rain so I didn't do a detailed step by step like I did on my LCAs, sorry.

Glad you like them. I have them as well. You should here them with an off road H pipe like I have. WhOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

 

I've heard them in person with the H-pipe, they sound really good but my condo association would kick me out for sure.

 

Nice! I love the Brenspeed clip with the Flows and O/R H.

 

My neighbors are not liking me much. Longtubes, no cats, flows,= TO LOUD.

 

My Flowmasters and my H-pipe (plus a bunch more stuff) are on their way to my parent's place in Arizona. I am driving down with the wife and kids from Canada in our Sport Trac to suprise them with a visit and pick up all the stuff.

I have to wait until March when I get home with all the stuff to install it, can't wait!

 

how much lighter(if any) are the flows compared to stock? i need to lose more weight and figured the stock mufflers are pretty heavy. maybe i can drop another 30lbs?

 

The stock mufflers are a lot smaller in size themselves. The chamber is shorter by 3 or 4 inches. Problem is the giant stainless tips on them. I don't know the answer to that

 

How expensive are the Flowmasters ?

 

I got mine used but I think new they go for around 280

 

The FRPP/Borlas are half as heavy as stock (I think). Watch out though, they drone at 1.5 - 2k.

I have yet to hear the flowmasters in person...I wish I knew someone in my area who have them

How bad is the drone with the flowmasters...."if there is any" ??

 

I haven't driven it much yet so I'm not sure. I do have a rattle of some kind though. Under real hard acceleration I get a rattle noise sometime for half a second and it goes away. Might be my license plate frame.

 

I noticed a rattle after installing mine too, but inside the car. Thought it was coming from the dash at first but figured out it was the e-brake handle. Only happens for a second whlie accelerating. Just a little more vibration I guess.

It's louder accelerating, but just cruising on the highway there's no more drone than stock imo.

 

yeah I figured it might be something else. They rattled real bad at first and then I found it was a metal coat hanger vibrating in the trunk.

 

I think the drone is noticible at 1200-1700 rpm. After that its fine.

 

What do you guys use to polish your stainless tips? Since I got mine used I tried using scotchbrite to clean them up a little. Big mistake, I killed the finish on one of them, it isn't shiny anymore, just dull. I used a Meguiar's power ball on it and it shined it a little bit, but not a mirror finish like it was.

I just went to pepboys and got some Blue Magic Liquid Metal Polish, it says it works on stainless. I'll let you know how it works.

 

I havent used nothing yet just a quick coat of Zaino. But its going to need more, let me know how yours turns out.

 

Paper towel and windex works.

I'm not that **** about it... I just wipe the crud off when the car gets washed.

 

Yeah, I'm interested as well. I bought mine new, but even wiping them off almost daily they are not as shiny as they once were.

guess I am **** about it.
