I Knew It!!!!

I was searching on another ford site, and I guy ran into the same problem as me (actually a few diff guys) When you slap in a nice flowmaster on a stock setup retaining both factory cats, you get very little noise, A guy went on to say that after having High flow cats put on, it made a huge difference in sound and performance. And here I thought it was just me!

When I bought my first Bronco it had a nice deep tone to it with not much exhaust noise (Just right). I soon discovered that the dealer had taken the muffler off and just did a straight pipe from the converter back. Sounded nice by I'm domesticated now and use a quiet exhaust on all of my Broncos now.

Who makes and/or sells high flow cats? I don't want to set off car alarms, but I would like a nice rumble as I drive down the road.

From: Medford, OR
I am currently running a SI/DO catback system with a 40 series Flowmaster and Bassani headers. The headers changed the tone, but didn't make it noticeably louder. I definitely noticed a difference in sound from stock, although it isn't nearly as loud as I would like. I removed the 2nd cat without much change in sound. The next step is going to be a high flow Y pipe to replace the first cat and hopefully that will give it the sound I am looking for.
