Did you try them with open pipes before you installed the max flows?

I know how they sound.. I used to drive open side pipes for years on 2 of my previous Vettes.. I also raced my race Vette with the 434 with open side pipes...

The only modification was to trim the end of the rocker panels a little bit. That's all..

I actually expected the maxflows to be louder than they are.. I'd say that maxflows are about half as loud as open..
