Default Walker Mufflers?

Thought I had a new exhaust system, but the guy sold it on me... so i'm looking at the Walker Exhaust System. I have flowmasters now, but my rear pipe (cat to mufflers) is real beat soI'm going replace from the cat back. Does anyone have the Walker Exhaust System? What kind of sound might I get? Bottom line are they any good?

Depends on what you buy. Walker has been in the business for over 40 years that I know of. I'm sure they still make a good product. Haven't used them in quite a while.

I've got the Ultraflo, they are stainless steel had them for 5 years and they still have a mirror finish. Have a nice throaty sound. (on an 85)

"WALKER" brand is nothing more than stock replacement, but Walker also owns/makes the DYNOMAX brand, among others.

Walker makes very good aftermarket, replacement exahaust products and they generally mix with OEM systems better than other brands. I just pulled a stock Walker muffler off my car and replaced the cat back with a used, original C4 exhaust. The Walker muffler was quieter than stock system. I haven't used any of the performance lines, but a basic Walker replacement isn't going to give you any real sound. I can't speak first-hand for any of the performance exhaust lines they make.

The key word there is "qualifying". Otherwise, they wouldn't likely word it that way. Maybe something to watch for, maybe not.
