6.6 Gas - choosing Flowmaster exhaust

[NWSierra]

There are three kits: 

1. Outlaw - Most aggressive https://www.holley.com/products/exhaust/exhaust_systems/flowmaster/flowfx/parts/718111

2. American Thunder - mid aggressive https://www.holley.com/products/exhaust/exhaust_systems/flowmaster/american_thunder/parts/817933

3. FlowFX - least aggressive.  https://www.holley.com/products/exhaust/exhaust_systems/flowmaster/outlaw_series/parts/818112

 

Who has had the FlowFX?  Does it drone bad?  I know, it's all relative, give me some feedback.

 

On Friday afternoons after a couple beers I'm more along the lines of, "F-it.  I'm getting the Outlaw kit".  The 6 other days, I'm thinking FlowFX.  I hate my moments indecision.

Sounds like American Thunder is your answer.  Haha

I like the Flow FX but I would want either a single 4" exit or if it was duals they come straight out the back under the bumper.

Your links are reversed. I listened to them and was like wow the first one seems mild and it’s supposed to be the loudest?

 

I like the outlaw sound. 
 Isn’t the stock exhaust 3.5” why would these neck down to 3”?

I put in a cat-back from MBRP.  LOVE IT!!

Just wondering, the own muffler being so large, if larger pipes would be any benefit without the little glass pack, or if it would still be to restrictive to matter. Honestly, it's the pipes in front of the muffler at the cats, that's looking quite rusty already.

I like the sound of those too. Dual's are probably half for looks, just partial to dual pipes on what I ride.

I think my perfect exhaust would sound exactly like the factory system but getting rid of that huge muffler.  Does that exist?

[64BAwagon]

I like the sound and with a stainless 4" tip I like the looks, just dont like lugging that ginormous muffler around.

The manufacturers has  done the research as far as noise vs flow. Restrictions cost HP. I’ve seen exhaust test versus exhaust configuration and large single exhaust won. The muffler is large to reduce sound keep flow.

You're right...I had a vision.....lol...it doesn't exist right now.  Maybe someday...

The avalanche is the only one I haven’t put loud exhaust on. I still may I never say never. It actually has some sound stock.

just ordered.  Love the MBRP, put it on everything.

 

With that said, I think I see the answer, but you have to cut it to get the old one off?  

[Cheekster96]

You can probably get away with not cutting it. But I did and was alot easier to remove it around the rear axle.

About 3000 miles on it, still sounds good and I love it!

If you buy Flowmaster keep the stock so in 2 years when it rusts off you can reinstall the factory
