Flowmaster used to be cool. But atleast on 4th gen's they were proven to loose horsepower over stock, while magnaflow put out one of the best systems for an unbelieveable price. And in my opinion the magnaflows sound much better than the raspy, droney flowmasters. In my opinion flowmasters are just old technology that were only ever cool cuz they were so loud

My car came with Magnaflows, which I didn't even realize until I was looking at my car one day. So, Magnaflows.

Magnaflow. I've heard it on 4 bangers, 6 cylinders, and V8s. It always sounds good. Rumbly, with little to no rasp (on the I4 and V6).

I rocked Magnaflow on my Cobalt. It was loud and had a very small but noticeable kick. Of the 2, I went with them. When it comes to the Camaro, I will do lots of research to decide which system has better performance for my goals.

well, sort of. flowmasters did give a gain over stock. but not as much of a gain as other exhausts did.
