You hit the nail on the head man. Next paycheck I am ordering the MAC catback. Screw Magnaflow. Hey how much different will the MAC sound compared to Flowmaster? Are they basically the same? I really love the sound of Flowmaster, but never heard MAC in person. Like I said, if Flowmaster made a stainless system I would be all over it, but MAC looks to be what I should get.

Haha. Gotta love that smell.
But you know what you gotta do with your set up. IMO, it seems like the prochamber was made for chambered exhaust systems. They just sound so good together. But that's JMO. I know different people have different taste in exhaust sounds. And a lot of people are in love with the prochamber no matter what catback it's paired to.
... But when you pair the prochamber up with a chambered exhaust, it just has MUSTANG written all over it.

Oh by the way I've been getting high and enjoying the fumes coming from my O/R midpipe. It smells like heaven! *passes out*

Yea. The prochamber is definately for chamber mufflers. I have it on my flow 40 series and it sound great, just wished it was a little louder. You have to expect some raspyness when going off-road. Im thinking about dumping my exhaust right after the muffler like a friend of mine.

RE: Prochamber installed... disappointed!!!!
I've never heard Mac on a 2V before, but I've heard it on a 4V Cobra. One of my boys has Mac exhaust on his Cobra.
His car compared to mine, as far as loudness goes, is louder when just cruising, and at WOT throttle. The only time I'm louder than him is when at idle. Part of this is because he has an X pipe compared to my H.
As far as sound comparison, they sound A LOT alike in tone and deepness. The only real difference is the loudness and how each exhaust holds it tone. Under acceleration, flowmaster can get "tinny", but still have a nice low and deep sound. Under acceleration, the Mac system holds it's deepness just a tad bit more, so It sounds slightly deeper under acceleration.

I have two sound clips that I found a while backI could post of a Prochamber with flows, and a prochamber with Mac exhasut If you want. They both are on 4V motors though. The sound would be somewhat similar on a 2V...

Mac 3" Cat Back with O/R prochamber
http://videos.streetfire.net/video/1...2a00034de1.htm
Mac LT's, O/R Prochamber, Flowmaster Cat Back.

I took these from the exhaust soundboard over on SVTP. While these are both on Cobra's, It still gives a good general idea of how it would sound on a 2V.

RE: Prochamber installed... disappointed!!!!
I can't believe nobody noticed this.......
:
You have to take a razor blade and shave off the little tabs on the O2 sensor clip. Then it plugs right in. Steedas MIL eliminators said this in the instructions, anyway...
:
Brenspeed sent me two drivers side Eliminators so I need to replace 1 and get the passenger side one. No CEL yet.
