Default 2 chamber flows

do you guys out there with 2 chamber flowmasters ever get pulled over for being to loud or get bugged by the cops?

sure dont, i drive by them in first gear going 3500 all the time.. they just look. its a mustang they expect it to sound like that, but maybe thats just cuz im in Canada lol.

i dont find the flows that loud really, i heave some headers, o/r h, flows, and turndowns and it isnt that loud that id get pulled over. when u r cruising and let off the throttle they go really quiet. but if you give it some fuel they really wake up. perfect street muffler.

not really, just dont floor it when cops are around, and youll be fine.
I usually shift into 5th to keep the noise down.
but they sound awesome when you open it up.

Mine are crazy loud all the time. The GT-40 heads and L/T's wake those fuggers up! Wish I could hurry up and access some sound recording equipment so you guys could hear it. I dont have any way to trasfer it over to a computer.

Thats a really good question. How the hell do the Harley guys get away with it? My buddy has a custom built Harley, its got a Hooker header and the thing is the loudest internal combustion engine I have ever heard. It will literally make your ears ring and give you a headache just from it idling. Obnoxiouse IMO. He never has any trouble from police.

I'm in CA and dont have any problems. I think they are loudest at around 200rpm though. They are fun in parking garages at around 2000rpm.
