So I'm about to break down and buy new exhaust.

Before I get flamed for not searching or something, I've spent the last two days trying to figure this out, so maybe someone can help.

I'm going with MAC Ceramic LT's with an Off-Road Prochamber.
Axle-backs are the issue. Right now I have SLP Resonators with Pypes Muffler Deletes. This is getting to be a little loud for my liking, so I'm wanting a real muffler :omfg:

I dont quite like the sound of MACs and I want something quieter than a stinger or bassani race, but loud enough to be heard. So the flows seemed like a good choice and they arent too expensive.

I've looked everywhere and I've only found this one video of an O/R prochamber with Flows. It sounds so good, but it could just be this one vid. Has anyone else heard this combo or have it/used to have it?

If you want "quiet" with a full exhaust system, then either go stock GT mufflers or GTA/GTB's........IMO. Very tolerable and maintains deep rumble.

Stingers/Bassani/Corsa's are going to be somewhat loud, and the muffler delete setups are going to be STOOOPID loud.

But I'm old so don't listen to me.:beerdrink:

Well I wasn't wanting quiet. Just looking to see if anyone had heard the prochamber/flows combo. I'm going catless regardless and just want a good tone.

The video with the flows just sounded pretty good but I dont want to base my entire decision on one video.

Wait till you install the LT's , see how it sounds. If to loud barrow some stock mufflers, it may save you some money. I am running stock Bullitt mufflers with my LT's / catted X-pipe and it sounds great.

usually FM mufflers with long tubes on a 3v trumpet very very bad. there are three around here with that setup and when they get up around 3000 rpm they sound like and open header honda civic. Thats just my opinion, I have the macs and I like them. also like the spintechs but those are both pretty damn loud.

Before I had boomtubes, I had 2 chamber flows with o/r prochamber and mac lt's. It did sound pretty good, but it wasn't loud enough for me. I guess I was kinda disappointed since with the o/r h, stock manifolds and flows it was pretty freaking loud and since I put l/t's on, I figured it would be a tad louder. When I installed the headers and prochamber, the volume of the car definitely decreased from the previous setup, but it did have a better sound. Being that I was disappointed with the overall volume of the car, I took the flows off and put on boomtubes and have not been happier with the way the car sounds. Try out your current setup with the mac l/ts and prochamber and see what you get, you may be happy with that.

I couldnt stand the popping anymore with my setup so i put the stock h pipe back on. I had heard that the prochamber was good for quieting down the exhaust and giving it a good tone.

Ill try out the mac's and prochamber and see what it sounds like.

I cant get the price of the prochamber though? About $400 for an off road midpipe? Is there anyway i can use the cut and clamp one with my o/r h? Id much rather pay $200 and to get it fabbed up than $400 for a shorty mid pipe.
