Default Yes... Another exhaust thread

I'm still here everyone just been very sick with this disease and I'm currently in the hospital for the nextb6 weeks with a severe bacterial infection and a mass on my lung.
What I'm asking is I have obx exhaust but want louder. I've never considered flowmaster but I've seen some c5s with it and it isn't that bad. Can y'all post vids of y'all's stock c5 with flowmasters and which fm it is? Or y'all's opinions of it? If I could have my way I'd get the billy boat bullets like I had on my FRC but I just cannot afford it. Thanks everyone

There was a set of dual tip B&B bullets listed for sale for $500 IIRC in the sale threads recently. The seller lives in Nashville if that is within your budget. I’ll look for the link and come back here and post it for you.

I just said a prayer for your healing too brother. God bless you and heal you.

Thanks man. Yeah that's out of my budget at the moment. I've been here a week and a half and they're going to transfer me to a long term care facility.

I'm running Flowmaster Outlaw race mufflers and love them. I use to run Flowmaster 40 series or Magnaflow 4" rounds for years depending on availability and/or room to install. I was also leaning towards the Billy Boat bullet axle backs but wasn't willing to pay the price. The outlaw mufflers you can find off ebay or Amazon for about $100 each.

I just looked up some videos if it and to me it isn't loud enough. But it does sound good. I guess I'm kinda biased towards the bullets since I've had them before

They are loud and really scream above 4000 RPMs but for the price you cant beat them, short of cutting off your mufflers. If you want a cheaper alternative to the Billy Boats I suggest the outlaw shorties over the super 10/40/44 series Flowmasters.

Let me apologize, the videos I've seen are bad quality videos on youtube. Most all videos with the outlaw muffler is mustang or dodge but hardly any c5

Get well, my C5 brother. The Flowmasters are probably PLENTY loud. I have the OEM size, made specifically for a C5, so they're much larger than those pictured here. They do drone a bit on longer trips, say 100 miles+.......

Thanks man, they just moved me to a long term care facility and I'm maintaining. I've been looking alot and the outlaw seems to sound amazing but I still cannot find a legit video of it on a c5.
