RE: Flowmaster OR Magnaflow? (video)
Out of the two set ups, I'd have to pick the flows, but marginally so, just too damn raspy up top. From what I've see, however, Mags aren't quite as good, sound wise, on cated systems. My V6 had mags on an O/R x pipe and sounded nothing like that, neither does my 5.0 with a Bassini O/R x pipe and BBK ceramic headers. But to each their own, I probably wouldn't be so hard on Flowmaster if I didn't know first hand the long term effects of water on flows.

I've had my flows for 3years now, never had a problem.
