Default Got flowmaster......

i just got flowmaster 40 delta from pepboys for 85.99. RIght now it is sitting in my room waiting to be installed. it is single in/ dual out.

i hope i got right measurment. it is 3" in/ 2.5" out. i will post video with stock muffler then flowmaster muffler. i know it will be loud as hell but i love it cuz ppl can get out of my way.

does rear resonator reduce loudness on muffler?
should i remove it or not?
i will buy the clamp the connects to muffler so i dont have to replace the factory pipes. i asked a guy from monro shop and a guy said it would cost 200 bucks to install the pipes. 200!!! hell i am not gonna let this guy take my money. ill have a friend install for me on saturday. i dont like to waste money for someone to do something. [:'(] i have a youngetr brother and he said he would install it for me.

NOTE: it is first modification to my truck, next one will be CAI (K&N).

you should be very happy with the sound, I have dual 40's with an x-pipe, but i would definately consider a different CAI.... I love my AEM and i've seen a lot of people that arent that happy with K&N.

I have my resonator....you don't have to remove it...mine sounds almost like a friend's mustang GT...sounds mean and aggressive...I think it'll be too loud w/out the resonator.
