MagnaFlow vs Flowmaster vs Straight Pipes

[Iowan]

I don't think they do but the claim resonator tips quite the ride i don't hear a difference when i ride with my friend to work. then again don't have very good hearing but i think i would be able to hear a difference before and after but i heard nothing.

I didn't think they did.

I miss my 70s Trans Ams with the Walker Turbo Sonics, no h pipe, and those glorious chrome turn downs. It didn't matter if it was a 400 Poncho or 403 olds, they sounded sweet.

Yesterday I stopped by the muffler shop to get a quote on replacing the pipes and installing my Flowmaster Bigblock 50 series. $375 and 3 hours!!!
Wtf....

1&3/4 inch primary tubes are WAY TOO BIG.

Dear Naked Emperor,

Are you talking abut back pressure?

Thanks,

Yes. My friend was taking engine advice from his dad and I was trying to talk reasonable sense into him. Dad won and in went the Performer cam..stock 882s..Performer intake? I don't remember..3.48in. Eagle crank and 6 inch rods. /smh.
Whatever. He spent $2700 paying someone else to build that motor and it died in short order.
The 362 c.i. "pile of ****" that I built for $1100 with as many used parts as was possible will STILL run circles around wtfe his piece of crap is today. That was about 1999 - 2001in there..we're not buddies anymore.

He had a great bottom end but the cam/heads/intake - the top end - couldn't support it and that's WAY MORE important. On the street? Stop light to stop light?! Get real. 1&3/4 primaries have their place in uber high HORSEPOWER engines that run at very high RPM sure, but I digress.
How old are you @Iowan?
If you are a kid <25? than no, you prolly don't want Super Turbos right now but know that they are built well and make good power. You will instead sacrifice real & useable torque + gas mileage suffers but it will be loud and everybody will look, which is really what you want. I vote Dynomax Race Bullets. They will ask you what they are.

I cannot speak for Flowmaster 40s without resonators because I have no experience.
I bought mine from a junkyard with the resonator tips installed. They came from a Corvette that's why I have four tips.
They are fiberglass packed, maybe three inches long...certainly it has some effect on the sound. They are mini glasspacks themselves!

I'm 16, and your right, I don't really want turbos right now. If I were going to build a engine id probably do a 383 stroker, because its powerful, but wont crack like a 400.

below is a picture of my engine specs.

I know the stock heads can crack but they were junk anyway, low compression, low hp, usually in a heavy vehicle stock and towing can make the get hot quick and that is what cracks heads.
