mufflers

Funny thing is... at least around here.... 85% or better of the hotrods, muscles, etc.. run Flowmasters.... and when flowmaster came out... why is it that everyone tried duplicating that muffler ??? hmmm ?

The proof is in the pudding..... I drive into a car show... and make my way through the grass I constantly have people following me to my designated spot and asking.... Is that a big block Duster ??? I am like ... " no" and they always say...." sure sounds like it ! What you got for exhaust because that is awesome !" But ya all are right... its subjective. we all hear things differently and at differnt tones and levels... I dont have a tinny sound out of my Flowmasters.... so not real sure what that is.. never heard a tinny sound from any of them. So ... dunno..... calling them "chokemasters" is pretty much just your opinion with no difinative prospect of truth.

true sound is subjective to taste i totally agree...and the reason id say most like flowmasters is because thats all anybody knows for mufflers- its like you mention another brand to most hot rodders and they are like what is that? (atleast where im from)...noone looks outside the chokemaster box so no one knows about other mufflers and how they sound...your duster may sound good with flowmasters, not all cars sound bad with them, but id say 90% of them do...oh and chokemasters is not an opinion- the truth is in the flow numbers that CHOKE horsepower almost as bad as stock mufflers all in the chase for "the definitive muscle car sound"...just ask the guys at flowmaster, they can tell you lol
