Flowmasters or Pypes Violators?
My wife's birthday is approaching, and I want to get her some louder mufflers...
Money is an object, so I have narrowed it down to these two choices.
I have heard about quality issues for the flowmasters, were they ever resolved?
The violaters seem like a good deal, anybody have these?
Am I missing anything?
Any comments appreciated, my wife likes the sound of power!!

I have Flowmaster and think they are great. Not too loud, not too soft. I have had them since June of last year, (i think)...no issues at all. I got them from Summit Racing...shipped to my door in two days. Good Luck! (oh yeah, easy to install too!)

RE: Flowmasters or Pypes Violators?
I have Pypes O/R X-pipe and Pypesviolators axle back and love them, but my car came with flowmasters. I liked the flowmasters sound it was a good quality, but I wanted an X-pipe and decided to just do the Pypes all the way back. On a positive note I do have a set of Flowmasters that I will sell with less than 300 miles on them. Since I have had both systems I will try and answer any questions you have. If you want any pics of the flowmasters or details pm me.

RE: Flowmasters or Pypes Violators?
I have the flowmasters. Personally, I love them. I didnt want some loud raspy or nascar sounding exhaust.
The flows are a little louder than stock and have a great tone to them.
Again, all responses are going to be biased to ones own personal preferences.
I recommend doing online searches for sound clips. If you search this site - you will find similar topics of this nature.
Good luck!!
