im not sure what flowmaster is on my truck now was already installed when i bought the truck. My question is whats the loudest meanest sounding muffler by flowmaster? and also i was really thinking about putting the stacks in the bed of the truck but i dont wanna get rid of my hard top... any done this and like cut slots in the cover? i wouldnt think i would have to cut a very long slot. I do and dont like my top but if i take it off i know my mpg will go down a lil so if anyone has done this let me know and if ya got pics that'd be great. its either that or running the pipes out the side in the running boards.

oh please please dont disgrace your truck by putting stacks on it. I know its your vehicle, but stacks on a gas motor? NO!
The loudest muffler from FM would be their Ten series racing muffler.

Flowmasters always seem to rust out with their aluminzed steel exhausts.

Not to beat a dead horse, but please, no stacks... And yes, the Flowmaster 10 Series Delta Force Race is the loudest and meanest...or the Outlaw Series bullet type, both of which provide minimal noise reduction and are for cases where you only have it b/c it's a rule.

The 1 chamber:

nice point about the muffs 2K1, another thing to point out is that the bullets are a "packed" design like chrry bombs or magnaflow, etc. where the 10 series is a chambered muffler, so the sounds are going to be very different.
