We need that 5.0 section on here that I was talking about earlier :icon17:

As much as I disagree with their desision its good to have these guys around:tup: for comparison and what not . Even if they are totally ghey for the Stang. :superghey:

With the Flowmasters, beware of drone.

So far from what I have found the only exhausts that don't drone are the Borla Touring and Sport, FRPP Touring and Sport (same mufflers as the Borlas, just rebranded), or the GT500 mufflers.

I dont know much about any of these companies as I have never personally used any of them. But I would def say Borla would be better than Flowmasters in pretty much every way, no??

Borla is good stuff. They are among the best in the industry.

On average I would say Borla is higher quality than Flowmaster. Some of Flowmaster's systems use aluminized steel which is more susceptible to rusting than stainless. But Flowmaster has improved quality over the years.

you get what you pay for... amiright?

Would expect so at 4x the price

The good thing about Borla is they do a lot of R&D for each exhaust system they build. Whether it be for the 370, 5.0, Corvette, anything... A lot of companies just have generic mufflers they just fab pipes up for. Borla will design all new stuff for each new car if they need to.

Interesting.... I will have to listen to some borla samples on the 5 oh

Def true. They do some epic work

After the Z I wanted to make sure I got something that didn't drone at all, so I did a lot of research myself and that's why I chose the Borla (FRPP) Sports.

Steve, so yours are borlas axle back or cat back? I would like to keep my cats. So how do u like em? Quality and fitment? And of course sound? Got any vids?

I have the FRPP Sport axle backs. I think they sound great. Quality and fitment is great as well, like OEM.

This is what they sound like with the stock H-pipe:



I don't have any good videos with the FRPP X pipe (which maintains the stock cats), but here's the Borla Sport cat-back, which replaces the factory H with an X and maintains the stock cats. It also deletes the stock resonators:

flowmasters and muscle cars go together like America and apple pie. (mmmm pie :yum:)

When I had my '70 Chevelle, I loved the sound with my flowmaster exhaust system, just sounded "right".

TBH I never was a fan of the Flowmasters. I preferred the more high-pitched European tones, which is why I've run X pipe and straight-through mufflers on all of my cars. You'll never catch me with an aftermarket H pipe and chambered mufflers. ;)
