Hey, that looks like my truck.

Flowmasters sound like a pickup truck with a V-8 that sounds good. What most people mistake for flowmasters are the people who install glass pack mufflers on their pickup trucks backwards. Those are just loud and irritating as hell.

Not including Headers (which have stayed the same) I probably have spent a TOTAL of $600 (including the Cats)

Remember, I have have 7 or 8 systems, but I bought all of them used and sold them of about what I got them for.

I even have a pair of Corsa mufflers I need to try next

And how it sounds presently and on all EIGHT cylinders, lol...all mods above, plus new mild flat tappet camshaft:
