I like that sound. Reminds me of my old SVO with a 3”exhaust and a Flowmaster.

Can you do some interior full-pulls with the windows up so we can get some data on the frequencies is allows through?

I will see what I can do! I am surprised by how mild this exhaust sounds while cruising under 2k rpm.

What else is done to the car? It has a nice deep tone to it, and I agree with Clint, would love to get some interior shots for drone comparison.

Nothing, this was my first mod!

What’s most valuable is a hard pull from ~2400 to 3500rpm I’m third or fourth. Anyone with an mbrp will be eager to hear how your flowie sounds in that range

Here's a third gear pull. My phone picks up a lot of weird background noise, but I'd say the exhaust noise in the clip is pretty comparable to reality. This was with the windows up and the rear seats folded up and the divider in place. I found with this exhaust and even with stock exhaust it sounds more "lively" with the seats down.

thanks i'll see if i can get a clean spectrum analysis from it..

if i can compile enough spectral analyses I'll put together a thread of the testing from various ones or maybe a little kbase site or something.

Here is another video for good measure. This time it's a wide open 4th gear pull from 2500-4000rpm. Same conditions as the first video.

Sounds really nice.... I've had flowmasters for years on my trucks, they always sound great. My car is in storage for the winter but when it comes out the exhaust is my next mod. I will probably get the Thermal mostly because it is really well reviewed and I'm too chicken to take a chance on anything else. I would love to believe this exhaust would not drive me crazy with drone on the FiST because the price can't be beat! I guess I have a few more months before I pull'er out of storage so anyone with Flowmaster opinions/reviews PLEASE let us all know what you think!!

I'm very happy with mine. Fit perfectly and no drone. Very mellow when you want it to be but loud when you're on it. (Loud to me at least. I've heard others says its quiet)
I'd say the OP's vids are accurate. Sounds just like my car.

I love this exhaust so much. I put about 1000 miles a month on my car and there's no question this exhaust is very easy to live with.

Mine will be here next week! Any tips on install?

Its pretty straight forward. Be sure to hit the stock bolts with some PB blaster or similar, especially on the downpipe.
I did it on ramps in my garage. Pretty easy

Thanks! I assume you just cut the stock exhaust out?

Oh yes, I forgot that part. I used a sawzall and cut it right before the axle

 

[Geebs]

All the pics I see show a black muffler and resonator.....makes me think those two items are NOT stainless. On the the flow master website it only talks about the pipes being stainless. What have you guys noticed??

 

[Clint Beastwood]

if possible, try to cut it on a straight bit so you can easily put stock back on (or sell it) if you want.

 

[Brianmc27]

To those that have purchased this system, did yours have this weird overspray situation on the mid muffler?

Just wanna make sure I’d didn’t end up with some knockoff garbage.

Thanks!
