Flowmaster or Gibson catback exhaust? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So I'm stuck between these 2 exhausts. I've heard the flowmaster and I wouldnt say it's that loud but sounds really nice. It's also a 3" catback system. I've found this catback for $650 online.

My other option is the Gibson catback exhaust which is a 2.5" system. I've heard Gibson exhausts on mustangs and my buddy has a 5.0 mustang with the Gibson exhaust. Sounds really awesome on them. Apparently they use the same design muffler on the Camaro from what Ive heard. But it'll still sound a little different because they're 2 completely different engines. I can get it for $680.

So what do you guys recommend? Any flowmaster or gibson exhaust owners?

For those of you with the flowmaster catback, are you guys satisfied with the sound and quality? Any problems?

Im happy with the Flowmaster AMT kit....had it for over a year now. But people have their differences on exhaust systems, but for the price and sound, I like it a lot

I have the catback kit and I also have headers and hi-flo cats. Probably be a tad louder without cats ...just a tad

Gonna order the flowmaster tomorrow finally

Love my Flowmaster. Not too loud, but great sound. Headers are in my future with LT's so it should be nice when it's all done.
