Bernd, now a little while ago I asked you about the Flowmaster 50 series.
You said the 50 series is the way to go. Now I found out that Flowmaster
doesn't make them anymore so I guess I need the delta flow. But now you say
that you are running a 50 SUV Flowmaster. What would give me better tone
but still keeping some noise. I am not a wimp when it comes to the volume
like most here but I do want a great sounding exhaust. Now remember that I
am not running a SC.

I will run a 2.5" out to a 3.5" tip exiting in the stock location... Do you
think the tip would give me much of a change in sound?

please email me at talthoff@diyannihomes.net (since I plan on ordering this
thing by tomorrow morning)

also if any others have any suggestions please feel free to email me at work
as well.

Thanks!

I use a Flowmaster SUV Muffler (2.5" IN/2.5" Dual OUT). It's MUCH
quieter than the 40 or standard 50-series mufflers...and doesn't sound
like a vacuum cleaner like the DeltaFlow (with boost).

Flowmaster makes a 50 series called the SUV Peformance Muffler. Call
them and ask about it...they recommend it over the 50 Series Delta Flow
for better flow, sound, and less cab noise.

Mine is a single center 2 1/2 inch inlet with dual 2 1/4 inch outlets.
