When u first get it, it seems a little loud but now mine sounds quiet bc my ears are so used to hearing it I guess. At higher RPMS it has a little rice to it but its not too bad. Next time I run it down the track I might try to record the sound. Id like to set up a camera and record it.

That sounds just like my 3.8 with a flowmaster only the thing is that it only sounds like that when I rev it in a garage or tunnel. Maybe that clip was taken in someones garage?

No I didn't take my cat off but that very well could be what makes that car sound so good. My sounds like that only in the garage or tunnel b/c of the echo.

Question

Do you lose power or tor wjen you take the cat off? Is there much of a difference when you take it off? What does the cat do?

You guys with the Flowmaster muffler need to get a bigger intermediate pipe. A 3" pipe will get rid of the high-RPM "ricey" sound!
