Flowmasters
Anyone running flowmasters on their C6? I have 07 mn6 coupe and it is too quiet. Would like a little muscle car noise but not too much drone when cruising. How do the flowmasters sound?

I like mine a lot. Just enough throaty and deep, but not obnoxiously loud.
keep in mind that I am still running stock manifolds and cats. without them it may be louder or drone a bit.

I have dual tip Flowmasters and they are satisfactory.....much better than stock. They were on the car when I bought it. I originally thought I would switch to Borlas but haven't done that yet and it's been eighteen months since I bought the car. Maybe I like the Flowmasters more than I'm willing to admit.
Me too ! Mine are dual tips as well.They were also on the car when I bought it over a year ago. I liked them from day one.
I have upgraded and modded just about everything on the car , but the catbacks remain the same.

Just installed the Flowmasters.....drone is unbearable at about 1500 to 1800 rpm. I read that someone installed resonator inserts. Need a little more info on that trick. At the rate these are sounding, back to stock, looking for something else.

Seems
equally divided on this topic in this particular thread. I guess you either like them a lot or you don't...a lot. Sorry, I didnt. I ended up taking them off and giving them to a friend. While they sounded great on start-up, at idle, and WOT, the rest of the time the drone was unbearable. Where I you, I'd consider some other system. I must add that I had the older 40 series mufflers.

I also have the dual tips, drone was very noticeable when I first put em on 1500 mi ago , now either im used to it or it got quieter (just the drone that is). No regrets.
As a matter of fact the other day, this gorgeous girl comes over and says I love that sound can you rev it again please, I think her knees buckled
