You could go with glasspacks, or even no muffler. What Flowmaster do you currently have?

i have a glass and it isn't that loud. i'd assume something like the 10 series would be loud... maybe just straight pipe it?

I bet the 10 series or Outlaw series by Flowmaster would sound great. I've only heard one 10 series. It was on a 1979 Chevy truck and it hurt my ears. I loved it!

is the 10 series the single chamber mufflers that are not rectangular? they kinda have an offset to them. i was considering them because i wanted flowmasters but for them to be as loud as some glaspacks or strait pipes.

The best muffler is no muffler at all

you will pass emissions with no muffler right it doesnt effect your emissions out put, but its simply illegal in most places to have no mufflers correct? i mean that doesnt stop a lot of people, but im just curious...and id go with glass packs if i had a little extra money

You have to go under the race section to find the 10 series. Here's the link:

If I had a V8 I would have the 10 series in a second.

A really really short glasspack or Magum race series. End of story... Flowmasters can never sound as good or flow as well as a straight through muffler, they are like having a hollowed out cat only the cat would be less restrictive.

I'm pretty sure it is legal in most states because it is a "muffler" but they might get you for it being over a certain noise limit.
