Nice rumble at start up. Sounds good all the way through the powerband. Loudest at about 1500 RPM. Not so loud you can't hear the stereo. My wife can hear me before I get to our street. I love it.

I have the Delta 50SUV series. Its just a little louder than the stock with hardly any noise in the cab. The performance gain was very evident though.

Message:
i have a 99 dakota ext cab, i love the sound of my 50 series single in dual out. quite inside but just enough rumble outside to tell everyone you have a flowmaster. but i can't say i have noticed more miles per gallon.

Hey, Dakota Bob. Did you get your headers right from JBA? You have a v6 right? Do you have dual 40s or does it go to a single muffler? I have a 94 v6 reg cab shortbox and am trying to find a decent exhaust. Any complaints about the Accel coil?

They are JBA headers I got them off ebay 94 V6 just a single exhaust 2.5. The Accel coil went out on me yesterday I thought it was the fule pump, my mechanic told me that the Accel coil wasn't any better than the oem coil I had on it. I got it from Jegs it was direct hook up it fit in the same place as the stock coil. I didn't feel any difference in it. The coil I got is not the 300+ system.

Thanks for the input Bob. I was going to get the Accel coil(not 300+ either) for my truck. It's been acting funny since I hooked up my remote start. Thought the coil could be going.

I got the 40 series Deltaflow and it sounds very deep and loud when I really step on it. I get it up into the higher rpm's alot, b/c of my stickshift, and there is no droning, just a good rumble.

Go with the 40 series Delta, the sound is deep and not too loud in the cab. I have the 40 and wouldn't change it to another brand for anything.

I have friends with Flowmaster, and while they are plenty loud, they aren't smooth to me. No knock on Flowmaster, great product, but I found a better one for me...

I just installed a Gibson sweptback single pipe cat back, with SS tip. Looks great, sort of like the RT, and it purrs like a kitten.

Hey, quick question.... What would the difference in sound be if I took off my 3.5 inch tips and put turn downs on right before the bumper? Anyone know??? I would like to get that hidden look to it.

TExas 97 if you put turn downs on your truck it will be almost as loud. if you have a droped dak the exhaust will echo off of the road and sound really good. thatswhat im going to do when i drop my truck this summer. im going to drop it 2 4 and get rid of the echo tip and turn it down

i am also looking for either a 40 or 50 series, whatever sounds best with split duals, but still want to hear my radio or talk to my girlfriend. i want good sound and would really like a little performance gain too. anyone have pics of split duals coming out behind the wheels instead of straight under the bumper? looking for awesome ideas.

The sound and number of chanbers, 50's have more chambers, therefore are quieter, delta is the quieter version of both. So, delta 50s are the quietest.

i have a 40 on my v6, single in dual out. it is dumped right before the rear axle. sounds really good, better than my old glass pack. there is some droning in the cab though.

The best sounding v6 i have heard belongs to ForexFour. i think he has the 70 series. he posts on the off road board if you have any questions.

I didn't get much useful feedback from an earlier post so i did some research on my own.Someone suggested the 70 series flowmaster so i decided to go with that because I didn't want it to loud because I had 40 series on a previous v-6 and it sounded horrible it is hard to get a good sound on a v-6.I like the 70 series it is slightly louder than stock and doesn't have that tractor sound that some v-6's have.I have installed 180 degree thermostat,autolite 3923's,msd super conducter wires,and napa brass cap and rotor,these modifications have certainly helped with spark knocking problem .Hope it is a lasting solution
