I was going to add headers but then I started looking at twin turbo systems.

Ive had two Flomaster sets , one on a Camaro z28 and one on a silverado pickup truck and they both sound super. Definetely sound better than the borla I had on a 2001 c5 corvette. The vette with borlas sounded like a motorboat and it was a big mistake on my part for paying aloy of money for them.Sure the Borlas last forever ,but the ones I had did not produce the hot rod sound the american thunder Flowmasters do. It is just a shame the flowmasters are not stainlesssteel.

I love my Flows. Have them on my Ram also. Nice Muscle Sound.
Now, if you want LOUD...get the B&B Bullets, they are headache pounding loud! Have B&B's on my Boxster also, but they sound much better (maybe because they still have mufflers, whereas the Bullets are almost straight pipes).

I've heard the breaking in thing too but I think its actually the person getting used to the sound rather than the sound changing. I have flowmasters on my 69 camaro and absolutely love the sound. I have Corsas on my ZR-1 and, although they sound good, they are high pitched and if I could go it all over I would go with another brand. I have Magnaflows on my c6 and they are too quiet. They do sound good but should be louder.

Why doesn't flowmaster make a kit with 40 series mufflers? That is why your Tahoe and Silverado sound better is because they probably have a 40 series. My wife had a 40 series on her Tahoe and that thing sounded mean.

See the funny thing is i HAVE 50-series on my Tahoe right now and it sounds way better than the 50-series i had on my corvette not sure if they are different or what but wasn't too happy with them on the corvette.
