Well, I put the american thunder back on the car today. My Borla shifted on me for the last time, and now it is sitting in a lonly place in the garage. I had been missing the "I'm freaking fast" sound since I put the Borla on. Nothing, IMO sounds as good as a LT1 on flows, except maybe a 5.0 on flows (hey! Its my opinion) So I am officially loud again. The neighbors should love me at 5:30am going to PT with longtubes, no cats, and flows!!!

Yeah, the Flowmaster sounds really good, it just sucks that it's not stainless steel!! Be careful, though, until you really know your neighbors!!

How much louder is the American Thunder exhaust than a regular flowmaster. I was thinking about getting that exhaust but I wasn't sure how it sounds. |

There are quite a few Flow systems running around, shouldnt be to hard to find someone to hear it. But, I dont know if its louder, just differant. The flowmaster has a real in you face sound and yes it resonates, but I bought a 90's muscle car not a Toyota Camary, I expect some rough edges. The stainless vs. aluminum durablity issue is all realative to the person, If I lived in Miami and took long drives along the beach thru the ocean, then maybe it would be important to me. More likely than not the aluminum will last 2-3 years, and at 250 for the whole kit, that will be fine. Besides, the Borla intermediate pipe, is a carbon copy of the flows, so I can just stick it on if I have to. Later all |

I have a Delta Flow Flowmaster on my car and it sounds nice as hell. I was just wondering the Difference between a Flowmaster and an American Thunder Flowmaster. I have the same conclusion on the borla. The Steel is nice but my opinion it doesn't sound as good as a flowmaster. But thats onlt (MY OPINION) don't want anyone taking offense. Later |

the american thunder is only a flowmaster 80series 2 chamber... the rest is the same as any cat back.............. the biggest advantage, besides the awesome sound is this was my 2nd kit, and each one fit perfectly. |
