New Flowmaster Cat back system - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

subzero05 · 08-02-2012, 02:40 PM

i did a bit more digging on the flowmaster system and the part # will be 817596. it is a full stainless cat back system with 4' double walled polished tips on each side with their 80 series muffler . Not sure what the power gains are, but the best news is that it looks to be much less than the competitors at about $500!.. Just an fyi for anyone interesed in another option. Flowmaster is legendary in domestic performance stuff, havent really done alot in the import/tuner type market but I'm sure it will be a nice system if its anything like their other stuff

ha ha, I just told someone about this just now. Actually, I called "Flowmaster" today. It sounds like the power gains will be significant. They also said they will be posting a youtube video advertising it soon.

They would have to convince me it's better than this:

Wow, that Nameless exhaust looks great, do we have any pictures of the Flowmaster? I would like to see how it looks on the back of the car with their 4inch tips.

Thanks,
Rick

This is actually one of the many possible setups I thought about for this car, so I'm very excited to hear Flowmaster is actually making it a reality, and on their own no less

Very curious to hear what it's going to sound like, and for $500, I'll bet cash money this is going to be the system to get.

well just the fact its called "nameless" is enough for me to atleast consider a huge name like Flowmaster in the mix here. I'm sure that is a nice kit no doubt , but the fact we have some options here is the best part

something about me saying to crowds "oh I have a nameless" exhaust on my car or "i have the flowmaster kit" on my car.. I think the latter is much more desireable, but thats just my 2 cents

Says the guy that bought a Scion...

They are very well known in the Subaru community and are top notch just not top price. I would pick their stuff over Flowmaster, go figure.

here is a pic I found of the flowmaster cat back on a car. I'll see if I can get anymore detail

Symbiont · 08-03-2012, 02:36 PM

Yeah, I really don't like Flowmaster, at all. Just my 2 cents.

wootwoot · 08-03-2012, 02:38 PM

I am reserving judgment until I hear what it sounds like and look over dyno results. My 2 cents. If it sounded good and made as much power as the others I couldn't care less who makes it.

Looks good to me. Can't wait to hear what it sounds like.

I had Flowmaster Super 44 mufflers on my G8 and they droned like CRAZY but sounded incredible. Hopefully these are drone free.

The 80 is a little more docile than the 44

Just for shits and giggles, this is what the 80 series sounds like on an old MR-S Spyder:
