Which muffler

Carnage281 · Jan 27, 2014

Finally about to make my move on some mufflers for my car, and I have narrowed it down to two. Hooker maxflow or Flowtech terminators. The mufflers are going with an o/r x pipe too, so which muffler do you guys think sounds better on a 2v 4.6?

I've heard nothing but good things about the Spintech... Haven't heard the Hookers on a 2v so I can't comment on those. Although they are Hooker lol so I'm sure they sound pretty good

Yeah the only things I have to go on are these videos.

Flowtech > [video=youtube;0WF9dvW5l7g]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WF9dvW5l7g[/video]

Hmm based off those vids I have to say I like the Hooker better.. A lot better actually. Sounds very good! Minus all the background noise and terrible vid quality haha

Spintech is different but not in a bad way. The sound of the mufflers really depend on if an X-pipe, H-pipe, or straight pipe is used.
X-pipe = raspy
H-pipe= mix of blurble and raspy
Straight = blurble

With an offroad X I'd say SLP LM2s.. It'll give you that real loud (nascar loud) tone and imo sound badass on 4.6 2Vs.. I've personally heard a 4.6 with a catted X and SLP LM2s, offroad X and Borlas (idk which ones. sounded like shit to me, but i guess blown headgaskets make the car sound worse).. On a 4.6 spintech super pro streets sound badass.. You gonna want the car like holy shit loud all the time? Might attract some negative attention if ya know what i mean.

OP is asking Hooker or FLOWtech, not SPINtech. Different brands.

If I had to choose, my vote is for Hooker.

Shifty Powers · Jan 29, 2014

I would go with a different brand all together.

And the muffler should be mated with the proper midpipe.

X = bullet style
H = chambered

I can only say so much because I am a 4v. But LM2s are not overly loud. LM1s are the loudest. But both sound awesome

the5.ohh · Jan 29, 2014

Flowtech Terminators are loud.. I've never heard Hookers.. So I'd lean with the Terminators with an offroad X.

Which mid pipe? Catted? Got a sound clip?
I currently have Regular chambered Magnaflows, with a magnaflow catted X. It sounds deep but i wanna go louder and am gonna go slp1's. Slp1 only sound good with cats, if not go with magnapacks with an offroad or slp2

RonBurgandy · Jan 30, 2014

Righy now i have bbk long tubes with bbk o/r x and mac cat back. With 3in tips. And its pretty loud with the chambered mufflers. A buddy has an 01 bullit with shorties. O/r h and slp lm2 dumps. And its amazing so i had.to get me a set. When they come it ill be swapping them out and sound clip.

Lol yeah I get what your saying. I would be the least of their worries, down here in the country diesel trucks are loud enough to vibrate my windows in my car lol. I drive like a grandma anyway, and I just want my car to sound mean while I'm driving. I've considered the spintech super pro streets, and I don't really like that blatty sound they make when paired with an o/r x on deceleration.

Carnage281 · Jan 30, 2014

I wish I could find something that sounds like the frpp m55 mufflers.

Carnage281 · Jan 30, 2014

Or something that sounds like this. [video=youtube;s5_NNPviGoQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5_NNPviGoQ[/video]

From what he told me he has two dynomax race bullets mounted right after the header and two dumped off before the axle. I would go with that set up, but I'm not sure how it sounds with tailpipes.
