Sounds like 1000hp but actually is 150hp

Thanks for the heads up. I have the DC test pipe on an otherwise stock exhaust now. I'm looking for a catback. Guess I will NOT be getting the Flowmaster exhaust. Now what to get?

Filmed with a potato.

Don't get me wrong. W/o the stock cat it sounds soo good nice and beefy. The tone is deep. It's the sound only flowmaster can give u.

Something about "fat can" kind of turns me off to this system.

Maybe a better audio clip will help.

Got this clip of YouTube but sounds exactly like it.

When I looked at the video, my intial thought was WOW, that part of LA looks so similar to what a house in rural Puerto Rico would look like... Then I read you took the video from the internet and sure enough, it was taken in Puerto Rico by user @Ch3cho86

That car does not sound as bad as the video makes it seem. It's just poor audio recording device.

Hey, my '02 Camaro SS sounded AWESOME with headers, 1 pair of cats, and an SLP resonator for exhaust. I promise that doesn't sound like a V8 Camaro at least.... lol
