[QUOTE="moonltgold, post: 1271537, member: 7903"] I won't address the sound issue -- too subjective. I think any of the choices above (if straight-thru design, i.e. SLP, Borla, Mags, etc.) will yield more PEAK hp/tq than the Flows. I had Flows and switched to Magnaflows -- Flows gave me 6 rwhp more at peak over stock, and the Mag catbacks gave me 14 more peak rwhp over stock. But the Flows showed a little more tq and hp below 5,000 rpm, about 5-8 rwhp on average. The Mags passed them out for both hp and tq above 5,000 rpm. A baffled muffler such as the Flows cannot compete with a straight-thru design in the upper rpm's. I've read the Flow was designed mainly for its unique sound -- to replicate the '60's muscle sound, not designed for total performance. As you may remember, most '60s engines redlined between 5 and 6 grand, much lower than modern Cobras, so the Flows would have been well suited to those older cars. [/QUOTE]
