first off different strokes for different folks ...hammer you say that the flowmaster has worse flow than stock...thats true in some cases it depends what application you use for instance true duals isnt always the best if you put two FM's on without the right set up .. and sometimes with the right set up in somecases decreases your HP and TQ keep in mind motors vary in what works and what doesnt so some of you who hate your flowmaster maybe it was not installed properly or possibly to much piping and so forth i personally love my flowmaster super 44 single 3 in inlet dual 2 1/2 outlets dupmped before back axle.. i noticed nothing but good things after i installed it and deleted both reso's gass milage went up slightly motor breathes strong so for you guys that say flowmaster is junk.. remember different strokes for different folks

I would not get a Flowmaster again because after 30,000 miles it has gotten much louder in the cab then when it was new. That said, my wife left with the dak the other day, and it really sounds badazz outside the truck

I noticed a little gain in 5k RPM pep, but like mofaster said, anything is better than stock.

I just put a dual kit w/FM Super 44 on last week. Removed both resos. It sounds like a freakin racecar from the back, unfortunately it also sounds that loud inside and it seems to get louder every day.....I'm thinking of putting a 50 series delta flow on instead....be looking for a slightly used (less than 500 miles) FM Super 44 on ebay real soon.....unless anyone wants to trade....

I left the front reso on, and so far I still like the sound. Gets plenty of looks to. Be interesting to know what is being thought.

I used to have terrible drone inside my cab. It seemed to almost disappear after i installed the 91 tune from my superchips...Im gonna change the tuning back to stock one day to see if the tuning makes it quieter or not.
