Default I love mine

Of course you will hear that Corsa's, Borlas, and Billy Boats are the ONLY way to go. Mine are quiter during most cruising speeds but they really snarl when I stab the loud pedal. I believe the other ones previously mentioned also get quite a few posts about droning where I have never gotten them from my Flowmasters. Maybe it is because I am not as loud? I love to hear my Flowmasters growl just like a lion when I get my foot into the throttle body, otherwise they just purr like a kitten!

The previous owner of my car installed the C5 Flowmasters. I really like them. They sound great when you get on it and they aren't as "motorboat" sounding at idle as some of the more popular systems.

I am lucky (in my opinion) to have the round tip option, too.
