I was thinking about it. I've heard really good things about them, but I'm going with the Flowmasters. They tried & trusted. A while back a guy said he was running the Ravins & really liked the sound/power...

The guy at the local Midas told me they were about $130 each. I think I'll stick to the Flowmasters too, unless someone on here thinks they're any good.

my lsat car (which i just sold so i could buy a 80 vette) was a mustang gt and i had the ravin mufflers. they sounded excellent. a very low growl sound that doesnt get high at all like ive heard some flows do at high rpms. i plan on getting them for the vette.

How do they compare sound-wise and cost-wise to Flowmasters?

I heard Ravins on a Mopar 440 and they were LOUD...however he didn't have a full length exhaust system, the pipes just had turn downs under the car which traps the sound. I'm also pretty sure he didn't have a crossover either. The sound was very sweet though.
