as our fearless mod says, that the muffler is too far back in the exhaust system to increase flow, hence, no change in your mpg, alls youll get is sound.

 

as I have said before.... we are talking about blazers not high HP cars.....and if you refer to them as flowcrappers, then why would you use them at the track or on a muscle car?????!!!!!???? I do agree that they do not flow as well as glasspacks or the dynomax muffler...... but I dont believe he is looking for performance....... as for gas mileage.... maybe 1mpg..... if that.... the original 40 creates alot of interior resonance in these trucks......... they are not all that loud though...... to be honest with you, I had a flowmaster on a 2.5L ranger that was louder than my blazer..lol its a matter of choice... I hear the dynomax super turbo mufflers sound pretty good on these trucks, and you can get the complete cat-back system for a 4 door for about the same it will cost you to get the flowmaster welded on...... DO NOT PUT A CHERRY BOMB OR STRAIGHT THROUGH GLASSPACK ON YOUR BLAZER!!!!!!!! unless you want it to sound like someone farting on a snare drum...lol glasspacked mufflers dont last very long... they tend to blow out the fiberglass packing and then they rattle and have to be repacked or replaced....

 

Geez! Give it a rest!!! Quit it already!

 

sorry... it just gets to me..... first my tires suck (different thread)... then my muffler..... wow.... i must be an idiot..... ill just drive the POS off a cliff.. hahaha I just wish people could criticize tastefully.... I will, when everyone else does too...


This ought to help everyone out in the future........
Constructive Criticism: criticism or advice that is useful and intended to help or improve something, often with an offer of possible solutions

and


Respect: to show regard or consideration for; to refrain from intruding upon or interfering with

please please please...... I will start being more careful with what I say..... I just beg everyone to do this, then we won't end up offending as many people.... almost every post I have read for the past month has had at least one argument in it due to people (including me) posting before thinking..... lets all just try to refrain from bashing other people stuff.... just offer positive, constructive, and repectful criticisms.....

 

my opinions since ive owned that parts before, was never directed at you at all. I did use them on a muscle car for track purposes, got rid of em after the first weekend is all. They actually do have to do with flow, talk to f body guys that are serious about the performance and dynotune.

Its all first hand experience with the stuff, I wouldnt comment otherwise.


I wish I could give good reviews on all the parts ive used over the years, it just isnt going to happen with em all. Everyone has their own opinions on things both good and bad.

 

sorry man... in case you havent noticed, I have a tendency to overreact.... my bad dude...lol

 

well if i shouldnt use a 40 then what should i use?

 

In the end, it's up to you and what you like. If you like the sound of a Flowmaster 40, then get it.

Honestly, I have Dynomax mufflers (not glasspacks) on my Chevelle and I LOVE the tone! I had glasspacks before the regular mufflers and I don't feel that the mufflers hurt performance one bit. One thing is for sure, the exhaust sounds MUCH better with the mufflers than with the glasspacks.

But then again, I don't like to be obnoxious. The Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers are the right kind of tone for me and not the least bit raspy like glasspacks (to me). When it comes time to do the exhaust on my Bravada (sometime soon), I will most likely go with a Dynomax muffler, just cutting out the stock muffler and splicing in the replacement.

I have also heard a 4.3L (in a fullsize truck) with a 40 series and I do think it sounded nice, but a bit too loud for me.

So to reiterate, it's your choice man. No one can tell you how you'll like it... They can only speak for themselves.

My tone is 47hz

 

i'm sure someone has a clip of the dynomax super turbo..... i have heard it on a sonoma 4.3 single in single out and it sounds pretty good... if noone else can get you a clip, ill see if I can record my friends sonoma for you....

HERE YA GO!!!! I did a little bit of poking around and found a sound clip of an s-10 pickup 4.3L with the dynomax super turbo cat-back system on it.....
