Spintech is on the way!!!!
After doing alot....and I mean ALOT of research, I have come to the conclusion that the "nofaster" 40 series I have on my car is not the muffler for me. So I made a little call to www.gofastparts.com and ordered me the Sportsman Street model 3444 and it will be in on Monday!!!! I have always had Blowmasters....nofasters....I mean Flowbastards since I was out of highschool (very long ago) and they have been good. But when I read that Spintech is made to order (no assembly line...each muffler is basically one of a kind) and gives you better flow and less interior noise (except at WOT), I HAD TO CHANGE!!!
Give me your input on my decision...

You won't regret you decison, try and get a sound clip on hear so other people can hear that sweet sound. I've got the 343SC model. Oh, and you're right about the hand-made type deal, they are pretty much all custom, which is why you pay a little more for them. But that $30 more is WAY more than worth it IMO. -89IRO

Got the Spintech put on yesterday......WOW!!!!! Now when I am at an idle, it is deep and smooth (not loud and gaudy like Flowmaster) but when I mash it......SINGS LIKE YOU ARE AT A WINSTON CUP EVENT!!!!! I love it.....I will try to get a sound clip so that you can here it. Oh yeah------The muffler guy (after install) said "Those guys in California are on to something. Get me a card, name , number, something" I think to myself " NAH..I will keep the Spintech to myself!!"

I've got a set of SLP 1 3/4 headers and a Mufflex 3 1/2 cat back with a set of Random Technology cats and a Flowmaster Y-pipe going on as we speak can't wait to fire it up.

---------Spintech all the way. I've had the Flowmaster I'd like to sound different than all the other F-bodies I keep hearing.
Good man. Are you using one of their race mufflers? That's going to sound so bad-***. I'm glad that a lot of other people here are relizing that there is something other than and better than flowmaster and hooker (IMO). -89IRO

Where is the cheapest place to get Spintech?You guys have me VERY interested in swapping my Flowmaster for one of these.I am looking to get a little quieter at idle and cruise but still scream at WOT.And I hate the way mine pops and crackles after I let off of a WOT run.The decelleration is annoying/sounds like *** on the Flowmaster.Looking for a single 3" in and out...single driver side tailpipe Force II replacement muffler.What do you recommend?

I tried the shop around method. There were only a few shops around that handle them & they all wanted the same price or more than Spintech direct. I ordered from Spintech (which the shops would have to do anyway since they didn't stock the ones I wanted).

Yeah, but then you pay shipping, unless those shops included shipping in your quote, then I guess getting them yourself would be the way to go. -89IRO
