this isnt the best quality clip.... it was taken with a kodak easy share camera.... it was about an hour after I got it put on, it sounds a little different now that the muffler is broken in.... a bit louder now.... http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...oid=1381771653

whats the difference between the original and Delta flow... They are the same price. Also it says that it its recommended for offroad/race use, does it really matter that I'm just using it for street driving.

The delta series says it also helps increase fuel economy (YAY!)

I dont like flowcrappers, had em on high hp cars and glasspacks have performeed better, with the delta flow you will get a whistle for a while till you "break" it in. the 40 series id only use on a muscle car or at the track, they are loud.

The best ive heard for full systems are dynomax and magnaflows, but if you dont want a muffler put a turn down on the intermediate pipe instead, it actually is the best sound you will get out of the 4.3 and its quieter then those junk flowmasters.
