You did know that some mufflers perform better than a straight pipe right?

Flowmasters are loud but that also depends on which model (single chamber,
2, 3). I had a set of Flowmasters on my old Camaro as well and they were
pretty mellow at idle but were pretty loud under WOT.

Interesting... I guess what I mean is, the magnaflow shouldn't flow any less
than
a straight pipe, since that's basically what it is. I had a flowmasters on
my 72
chevy impala wagon (400 ci) and they were just too loud. maybe too much
flow, I'm
not sure...
