Re: Best muffler for a v6?

I"ve got a '96 Camaro 3.8, and it doesn't sound like crap. I know the crap your talking about, but if you set up the exhaust right, its sounds great. I installed a Flowmaster 80 series, SLP intake, and some pacesetter headers and WOW does it sound good. I don't even feel like i own a V6 anymore. It doesn't sound like a 5.7 liter LT1, but it definitely sounds like a 5.0. Not even going full throttle I can slip the tires leaving a light. THe key is headers though. Just throwing on a muffler is going to make it immitate at idle and that's it.

ditto. Thats the muffler I have, and I have never gotten any bad remarks on it. It does indeed sound good throughout the whole RPM range.

Whatever the case, I think a Flowmaster sounds absolutely terrible on a V6.
