I just installed mine last night. Sounds amazing and actually pretty quiet at highway speeds. Was super easy to install. The hardest part was getting the stock muffler off.

Sounds good man...

I love my flowmaster 40. I don't care if I am losing 50HP it sounds so nasty.

I get complements all the time on it. "Like ******** that sounds good".
Buddy at works says it sounds like thunder when I start it up..lol

I agree. Though that Carven muffler is kinda changing my mind.

Yeah, that's very unique but to me it almost sounds like a V6.. I wish it was a little deeper sounding.

Really??? I don't think anything out there can make a Hemi sound like a V6 imo, check out their FB wall they have a few more clips of it!

I understand what you're saying. It doesn't really have that "nasty" sound like you want a truck to sound like. In my opinion it's a mix between a magnaflow and flowmaster. Not as super deep and aggressive as a flowmaster but more balls than the magnaflow.

Yeah, that's a good descriptions. Wasn't talking bad about muffler. Like I said it's very different from any HEMI I've heard but not sure if I like it.

LOL. Reminds me a 350/370Z with the VQ motor. Which btw sounds sweet.

Trust me I have nothing against V6 exhaust sounds, just look at grand prix in the sig..lol
