thanks in advance

ive got a 40 series delta flow.

its pretty loud. has that nice sound at 5-6k RPM when shifting
reminds me of my buddies flowmaster on his mustang, has that deep nice throaty v8 sound to it....
i had an street series 40. it sounded freaking awesome at idle, exactly like a v8, but once you stopped idling i found the sound to be too similar to a stock muffler with a hole in it. so i bought a straight thru muffler and a resonator and i like my new setup alot more.
oh i should add.. i have a glasspack style resonator in line before the flowmaster..

i added it with my old 80 series flowmaster as it was wwaaaaaay to loud. toned it down and got rid of most of the raspyness

the resonator is sitting in the spot where the cat should be. its on there as well with the delta flow 40 series as well.

combined sounds great.
ya, i'm more interested in the 40 series original tho... it's cheaper :D
if you buy a 40 series delta flow dont put a tip on it. it will be sooo quiet with a tip. keep the muffler under the car with no tip and it will sound like u have a 305 under the hood. i just took my tip off the other day and i have gotten soo many compliments on the sound.

do you have any sound clips that i could listen to by any chance?
The 40 series is one of the loudest, my friend has one on his 305 Nova and it sounds like a beast!
I'll mail you a clip of my 1993 Z24 with a 40 series Delta Flow .

I have a 40 series delta flow on my 92 z24 with a free flowing converter and a rolled edge oval tip. It sounds great. You can hear it when you drive but its not so loud that you can't talk over it or hear music.
i have a DynoMaxx and it sounds pretty decent from about 2000 - 4500 then it kinda sounds stock. I wanna get a flowmaster 40 series soon and hopefully find someone around my area that can help me do some stuff with my 3.1

later guys

ya i did. thanks. it sounds sweet.
i have the 40 series original flowmaster and it sounds great, the only difference with the delta flow is that it is quieter. This is what flowmaster says.
