back when i had long tubes, no cats and 2 chamber flows, i never once got stopped by the police. pulled up next to plenty at stop lights, theyd look over but never said anything.

now i run almost no exhaust system on my car and the only mufflers i have are race bullets (straight through "muffler") that dumps at the transmission and i still have never been pulled over for being too loud

Why risk it? Wait until after the probationary period. Cops around here would screw you to the wall if you were caught after a prior violation.

Don't mean to ask a dumb question here but Ive heard alot of people talk down on flowmaster and say stuff like there not really that great and not designed to well and i was just wondering what made people come to that conclusion when alot of people seem to have them on their car? Ive tried searching the forum and haven't found and answer and don't mean to highjack the thread or anything.

Flowmaster doesn't flow as well as other brands, especially those with straight through designs. Some aren't a fan of the sound or don't like how many cars have flows on them.

The guy I bought my mustang from said he did have an off road h- pipe with flowmasters and he got pulled over and had to put the cats back on. He lived in a somewhat urban setting too. But now the car is too quiet for me, I believe I have the 40 series. I like the sound, but if it was louder it would be nice, I wasn't gonna go buy another off road h- pipe since all that stuff is new. So I'm putting slp lm1s on in the spring. Where I live though I could probably get away with not having cats, some guys look under the car during inspection and some don't. It depends on who you see or "know." haha.

In testing, Mufflers like Magnaflow outflow Flowmaster 2 to 1. Yes my Magnaflows are a little quieter but they do flow better and I can feel a bit more power above 3500rpm with them.
