dynomax VT mufflers
The PO put flowmaster 40 on my car, straight from the cats, just two straight pipes, no resonator, or crossover. I now have a stock resonator which I will install but I still want the flowmaster 40s gone. I am thinking of the dynomax VT, they have an internal valve which in theory should cut down on the droning without cutting the good throttle sound.
Has anyone here used them?

I have not used them but my concern would be the spring on the valve coming off or something becoming loose and rattling over time.
If you went that route I would do it w/o the stock resonator and see if it is quiet enough.
The stock resonator is quite restrictive.
The theory is great and sounds wonderfull on the C6 vette.

I 2nd that about the Flapper valve and spring rusting breaking and rattling.
I just cut Off my Magnaflows and waiting for my 2 chamber mufflers to show up.
'
The Magnaflows are to Quite for my taste You more or less dont not have much noise at HWY speeds but around town between 35 and 45 MPH they have a Drone to them.
I took a look at the FM 50"s they say those have litttle drone I wanted it to be Loud at Idel and when your foot in it.
My Vett Is my Toy not my DD it was for a couple Months for a while use as a DD I think if I had to use it as a DD all they time I either keeped the MF or went with the FM 50"s.

I have them on my 91. Went from my long tubes to a center muffler with a built in crossover back to the rear to the VT's and it is as quiet as stock, no resonance. When you get on it though it sounds great. I had the same set up with magnaflows at the rear and the resonance was bad so I changed to the VT's
I've had them on for about 6 months with no problems, but then again it's not a daily driver.
