Flowmaster vs Magnaflow

I first put a Flowmaster 40 series on my V6. It was so loud it gave me a head ace. It vibrated my feet. I could feel it in my seat. When I went 70mph (2,000rpm) was bad.
I called the shop and told him there was no way I can keep this on my car it just was not enjoyable to drive. My girl would not ride in it. He told me he would order me a Magnaflow it is made different and quieter. The next day i had it installed. WAY BETTER. It is quieter and still sounds good and better then stock. You don't need to order the whole systems. Just have a shop get the muffler and cut your stock pipe and use the stock tip. It saves a lot of money and still has great sound. Don't use the Flowmaster if you want to enjoy riding in your car

I have the axle back AT from flowmaster on my Daughter's camaro. No vibration or issues at all. She loves them. Some folks do get a drone, we didn't.

I wonder if there was an issue with the installation.

muffler

I spent hrs reading everyones response to what muffler to get and so I did go with the flowmaster. maybe I did get a bad one. I went to a good shop that was recommened by another guy. Who knows. I am happy now with the Manaflow so I thought to myself yester day that i would write in and let other know what happen with me. This is a great sight and it is good to share everything. Thanks you guys keep up the good info.
