Default Flowmaster mufflers

Is there a difference between the Super 40's and the American Thunders? [&:]

american thunders = super 40s

series 40s are different from the other 2 ALL sound good on an 05+ sixer, If you have a good stereo check out the sound clips section and shop around a bit, flows WILL drone around 2-3k people have had varying sucess using resonators to get rid of the drone, Flows will definatly be the cheapest as many muffler shops can fab you up everything you need about including and H pipe for around 350-450 anything more and your overpaying. Thats a simple setup and will get into the game if you want to change your setup later on i.e. different mufflers or a prochamber. I have the series 40's and think they are the cats ***.

Just a note since the performace gain from duals on a sixer in non-existant you should stick with and H-pipe as they gove the exhaust a deeper sound.
