deep mellow tone - no BUZZ!)



I highly recommend Flowmasters for manual Trans cars. I do not recommend  
them for PG cars. The "mellow tone" becomes a "mellow DRONE" at cruise speeds  
with the PG - I am not sure why. It may have something to do with the constant  
load of a Torque converter. On a Manual trans car, I installed a pair of  
flowmasters after tube headers, very important - I added a crossover before the  
Flowmasters. That made the difference. At least for the usage I had, autocross, 
 it sounded fine. Ken Holm - on occasion, a contributor to this list - drove 
the  car from California to upstate New York, where it broke a crank (another  
story/another time)  - He may have a feel for the sound. It was a manual  
trans car. - Seth Emerson
