Default Pypes Exhaust??? on a 4valve?

I currently have magnaflows on my 96' cobra. I was told not to get flowmaster's because they restrict a 4V motor greatly. So I was thinking on getting the Pypes Violators??? Does anyone run these or know anything about them. I want a louder & deeper sound without it being raspy, but at the same time flow good. ADVICE PLEASE!

Thanks For Your Time- Brandon

pypes is a pretty cheap brand. IF flowmasters "restrict" your flow, pypes wouldn't do any better. if you want a muffler that doesn't restrict, get a straight thu type such as stingers or loudmouths. now these won't be quite as deep, but they are louder and won't restrict. i have LMI's and i'm extreamly satisfied with them.

If you want flow and loud then PYPES will do the job. If you want to get the best get Dynomax with Ultraflow mufflers. mark

First 4v's are turds and have no torque, now nothing sounds good on a 4v?

I'm beginning to think you need to keep your anti-4v bullcrap to yourself and stick to giving advice rather than your unfounded opinions.

Depends on the type of muffler from pypes. The VIOLATOR mufflers are straight thru and are reversible for either more sound less flow or more flow less sound. If you don't want the same sound as everyone else, go with the violator system.

Why do you perceive Pypes as a 'cheap' brand? Just curious. Pypes is trying to shake that label. All the new Pypes base systems are the same grade of stainless as Magnaflow and the upgraded line is the same grade as Borla and Bassani but fully polished.

The Violator will flow comparable to both the Stinger and Loudmouth. The sound should be more like a chambered muffler because of the fullsize muffler case and no packing.
