Guys with 80 series / Guys that think theres is too quiet.

In many threads where people said there 80 series werent loud enough, I always said "Mines loud and it growels I love it"

Well we all have different opinions on loud. So I made a wav for you guys who have asked me how loud my car sounds

P.S Never reved it over 4 Grand

The sound file =

Sounds real good... stock L98???

Bet mine would sound real good with that, especially considering I have headers.

I am choosing between the SLP Loudmouth resonator, Hooker AeroChamber or Flowmaster 80 series.

sounds good, i think my problem is, (along with others) is that we just want it REALLY loud. i guess it all depends of preference. my friends say my car is loud as h#ll, and i always seem to set of car alarms all day. i guess i wont be happy untill i run my true duals.

On the exhaust page, listen to the sound file of the 89 IROC-Z that says Flowmaster. That is a really good sounding FM, especially when he gives it 2 quick revs during it, not the crazy 1's at 1st. Sounds good though IROC. Did u record this in someplace or in the street??

89 RS

STILL Looking For:
An 87 IROC-Z28 350 TPI

Yeah I have an RS, but I want an IROC-Z!!

That sounds sweet.

My problem is two things though:

#1 I dont have a 350 so mine won't sound like yours.

#2 My car was lowered and the stock pipes sit no higher than 2 inches off the ground.

I have a 305TPI in my '91 T/A with a stock cat, 3'' midpipe, and an 80series. Sounds awesome imho. (i think the 3'' + 80series is the nicest sounding combo out there) There aint' much whine/drone like the Mustangs got, but daym talk about bass! So it IS possible on a 305 also. In the works of getting a good quality wav... what do you guys use to record your exhausts?
