Here's a breakdown list of the mufflers: Open headers - 0:45 70 Series - 1:10 Super 50 Series - 1:33 Hushpower Pro Series - 2:00 Super 40 - 2:35 Hushpower Shorty Series - 3:05 Original 40 Series - 3:40 Super 10 Series - 4:10
FINALLY SOMEONE WITH THE BRAINS TO SOW AND TELL HIS PRODUCT YOU JUST MADE MY YEAR!!!! THANKYOU 67 ELCOMINO IVE BEN GOING ALL OVER TO CAR SHOWS AND MUFFLER SHOPS TO FIND THE SOUND I WANT THE 406 EVEN CHANGED MY MIND OF THE ENGINE I WANT THANKS
I have the 10 series on my 1988 5.0 LX. I have Hooker full lengths and a catless h-pipe as well. It sounds amazing. Extremely loud but also very, very deep. Not raspy at all like those junk SLP Loudmouths. Even before I had all the work done to my car the 10 series sounded great. If you're looking for the loudest mufflers around that also have that deep rumble, nothing compares to the 10 series!
Nice vid with a real life engine. I like the hush power mufflers. My neighbors didn't much care for my Borla's on the last chevy, I don't care for the factory muffler nor do I care what my neighbors think.
Like the Super 10 Series! I have Super 40's on my 1970 GTO and a Super 44 on my 2004 Jeep GC 4.7 V8. I love the sound every Flowmaster gives. The perfect tone with the right amount of volume. I will always buy Flowmasters for any car I want to change the exhaust on.
it is more the tone of a sound than the level that is important, bigger is the muffler casing , lower is the tone and more pleasant is the overall sound always remember that noise is an important cause of driving fatigue
should have used a mildly built 350 with a slight cam because thats what the market out there and most of the customers own are slightly built or stock 350s with bolt ons
They all sounded great. If you really listen, there is a different rumble to each one at idle. I put the 40 original on my 3.5 V6 and I am actually stunned that it doesn't sound like a bumble bee. It sounds great and I can hear how the exhaust flows smoother, listening with my window down :) Nice car man!! Engine too ;)
The Hushpower and the Hushpower Shorty for the WIN!:-) the Original 40 sounded great too with the hallow sound, I have the Flowmaster Outlaws and they are beast with the Flowmaster Scaverger Elite Series Longtube headers offroad xpipe the Big Mutha Thumpr Cams 06 Mustang GT
@benii02 Flowmaster has a dual exhaust kit for your car that bolts up to your midpipe and then splits to 2 mufflers and 2 tailpipes. The part number I found using their website is 17276. They say when the car is idling it has a sound similar to a V8.
@69camarodrvr yea flowmasters just have the flowmaster tone to them, lots of people say they sound the same no matter what setup, and that whatever series it is determines the loudness of the flowmaster tone. you can hear what the actual engine sounds like with glasspacks seeing as they are basically a straight pipe
In my opinion I really don't like chambered mufflers because they make the exhaust high pitched. I really like the laminar flow designed mufflers and the ones that are similar to glasspacks in which I cannot remember the name of them. I like a low bass rumble. But it's my opinion.
@michaelmyers1993 I'm simply stating that using a flowbench is not the way to test exhaust, that's what chassis dynos are for. An airflow bench is great for the top end of the motor (carb, intake,heads) but once the 'big bang' happens the exhaust is hot and has soundwaves in the mix NOT cool air. And as I stated last time, if the Flowmaster is sooo horrible why is Thrush making a knock off 40 series muffler??
Have Super 44's on a 79 Vette.Sound like dirt.I think it cause the mufflers on a C3 are all the way on the end ,with no tailpipe after .The 40 series in this test are the sound I was hoping for.I wonder if anyone ever mounted the mufflers in front of the rear axle on a C3 and ran tailpipe out the back.
@wobigpat000 The Super44s were not tested because on video you would not be able to tell the difference btween them and the Super40s. The 44s are simply a THINNER version of the Super40s. The Super40's are 5 inches thick and the 44s are 4 inches thick, the 44s are modeled after the Super40s.
I wish that you guys might test some things out on a ford 302 from the 70's I think that would be worth seeing but I kinda want to find out because I have a 1976 ford F100 custom with the 302 in it but never done anything to it yet it's all stock
@michaelmyers1993 I'm gonna agree to disagree, have you watched the Dynomax video where they test the mufflers on a 502? The video, while impressive to show goers is completely worthless, there's no H or X pipe and no tailpipes! Either way, this discussion was not about sound in the first place, I was only pointing out that a see through muffler is no better than a Flowmaster in performance just because a flow bench says so. Just out of curiosity, what do you drive?
@michaelmyers1993 I dont think the comparisons are that close but Flowmasters do have their own tone and there are like 12 options of series to choose from to give you different volumes and tones. I personally think that all glasspacks sound the same and the only thing that seperates them is the outside material (304 stainless or aluminzed steel). Dynomax, Magnaflow, Borla, Corsa, Thrush...all the same
If you're looking to add a little tone but not wake up the neighborhood the Flowmaster 50 Series Delta Flow would make a good option; it has a moderate exhaust note, nothing too aggressive. If you want something a little louder our newest muffler the FlowFX would also make a good addition. We have over 15 muffler options, it can be a little overwhelming. Try giving us a call at 707-544-4761 and we'll be more than happy to help. - Jason @ Flowmaster
Hi Flowmaster! I love the new hushpower pro series mufflers! Love them so much I put them on my 2003 BMW M5. I have uploaded videos of my set up. Headers, custom x pipe, no cats, no resonators, and two 3" in 3" out Flowmaster Hushpower Pro series mufflers. Thanks for the awesome products!
We didn't use a Super 44 because the Super 40 and Super 44 are very similar in terms of sound. The major difference between the two is case size. Super 44's have a slightly shorter and slimmer case than Super 40's.
Why is super 44 carded as the most aggresive sounding muffler and not the 40? Is it alittle more rasp..or a little deeper sound? Basically how does a smaller case relate in performance and sound vs a bigger case?
I have been analyzing your technology & I have a question, all this presentation= in each model you used the "X" junction or just in the 1st 2 samples? The 2nd point is: I think that the Hushpower & others are connected directly from the engine, what can be the result installing 1st a Hushpower & then a super 40? I wait for your kind respond
Hey Franciso, The 'X' pipe is actually a scavenger pipe that is different from anything on the market, Flowmaster is the only exhaust company that makes this piece. The Scavenger pipe was used throughout the entire video. I know you have a few questions for me, so feel free to call me at 707-540-9448. This is my direct line.
69K, Thanks for the information & invitation to call you, let me plan such ph call, I´m in Guatemala, Central America! About questions, what is the result instaling the Hushpower directly from the headers? I¨m refurbishing a Galaxie 500XL with small block 289 with 4/2/1, I got an idea instead to install an X bellow the driveshaft, very incovenient.
+JohnnyBoy Biggz That's going to be a personal choice based on the tone and sound level that you are looking for. Give us a call at 707-544-4761and we'll help you weigh your options.
the sound of original 40's brings back allot of memories.
I was really surprised by the hushpower round mufflers. Really nice deep tone.
The original 40 sounds good but that super 10 is where its at.
Here's a breakdown list of the mufflers:
Open headers - 0:45
70 Series - 1:10
Super 50 Series - 1:33
Hushpower Pro Series - 2:00
Super 40 - 2:35
Hushpower Shorty Series - 3:05
Original 40 Series - 3:40
Super 10 Series - 4:10
I loved how the Hushpower pros and the 10 sound on that engine.
man this is what i have wanted to see and hear since i was about 14 years old 30 now thanx guys for taking the time
FINALLY SOMEONE WITH THE BRAINS TO SOW AND TELL HIS PRODUCT YOU JUST MADE MY YEAR!!!! THANKYOU 67 ELCOMINO IVE BEN GOING ALL OVER TO CAR SHOWS AND MUFFLER SHOPS TO FIND THE SOUND I WANT THE 406 EVEN CHANGED MY MIND OF THE ENGINE I WANT THANKS

1:00 his neighbors must love him.
10 and original 40
Bingo!
Flowmaster original 40 all day!!!
I like the hushpower sound very mean...
Me too it had more roar and less whistle. It has more of a performance tone.
This video so amped I immediately bought a pair of 40 series after watching it!
Nice video to show the differences. Thanks for posting this to showcase them.
Hush Power sounded good. Very clean and crisp.
Super 10 by far...
You read my mind!
Nice vid with a real life engine. I like the hush power mufflers. My neighbors didn't much care for my Borla's on the last chevy, I don't care for the factory muffler nor do I care what my neighbors think.
my favorite was open headers haha ;D
This is exactly what I was looking for to compare - thanks!
I liked the super 10. That one was the best. Sounded more aggressive and beefy.
Nice job guys. Thanks for taking the time to do this..
Like the Super 10 Series! I have Super 40's on my 1970 GTO and a Super 44 on my 2004 Jeep GC 4.7 V8. I love the sound every Flowmaster gives. The perfect tone with the right amount of volume. I will always buy Flowmasters for any car I want to change the exhaust on.
Original 40 Series FTW
By the way, from the ones you tested, I liked the original 40 the best .
Original 40 series all day. 💪
it is more the tone of a sound than the level that is important, bigger is the muffler casing , lower is the tone and more pleasant is the overall sound
always remember that noise is an important cause of driving fatigue

Super 10 is my choice.. bad ass!! That and a thumpr cam is next on my list for my C3 vette.
I have the 40 series flowmaster on my chevy s-10 1998 & sounds good & I love it :)
I like the open tubes! lol
straight headers!
OG 40 series has a great sound! That motor is SICK!
Love the sound of that motor!!! Thanks for the amazing video
Im still a fan of the flowmaster original 40 series.
its weird how much different an engine under load sounds
Awesome test!
The Hushpower and the Hushpower Shorty for the WIN!:-) the Original 40 sounded great too with the hallow sound, I have the Flowmaster Outlaws and they are beast with the Flowmaster Scaverger Elite Series Longtube headers offroad xpipe the Big Mutha Thumpr Cams 06 Mustang GT
thanks for make this video I like the original 40

Super 10!!🔥🔥🔥
HUSHPOWER PRO SERIES “SHORTY” is my favourite sound. And that comes from an AUSSIE
To bad they couldn't run the motor with some kind of a load on it.
I got the 10s on my 70 Chevelle and it's the best
i like them all, but the 10 is ROYAL!
i have a 1997 Sonoma 4.3l with the 70 series cut off just after the cab. Sounds Amazing! :)
Holy smokes that motor sounds mean as hell
all of the mufflers sounded awesome. i have a 50 series delta flow on my 1988 chevy 4.3 and it sounds awesome for a V6
excellent video, the only thing is missing is the DB meter
Thanks for this vid : we can really listen the difference and it's good you propose a muffler which not make too much noise.
@69camarodrvr

very good job...definately shows the different tones.
Saving the best for last Super 10 :-)
Have Super 44's on a 79 Vette.Sound like dirt.I think it cause the mufflers on a C3 are all the way on the end ,with no tailpipe after .The 40 series in this test are the sound I was hoping for.I wonder if anyone ever mounted the mufflers in front of the rear axle on a C3 and ran tailpipe out the back.
Thank you for the demo,I was going to buy some dynomax but I don't think so I really like the
Hushpower Shorty Series
3:10 best sounding ones in my opinion
that's super 10 sounds nasty!
@wobigpat000 The Super44s were not tested because on video you would not be able to tell the difference btween them and the Super40s. The 44s are simply a THINNER version of the Super40s. The Super40's are 5 inches thick and the 44s are 4 inches thick, the 44s are modeled after the Super40s.

Excellent video ... Thank you
Thanks allot! helped me pick out what i wanted!
After this video I'm thinking about getting the original 40 series for my 66 c10
YOU SHOULD PUBLISH A VIDEO AND SEND OUT TO THE SHOPS THAT SELL YOU PRODUCT??????AWSOME JOB!
How about doing the black widow mufflers compared to the flowmaster or any other muffler
I have a Super 10 on my 2015 Silverado! 🙌🏼
I love the Hushpower series.
Amazing video bud! Love the exhaust tones man. I have the series 10 on my 347 stroker =))
Very helpful thank you
10 Series all the way!
@michaelmyers1993 I'm gonna agree to disagree, have you watched the Dynomax video where they test the mufflers on a 502? The video, while impressive to show goers is completely worthless, there's no H or X pipe and no tailpipes!

super 40s for my 89 5.0L Mustang
10 and shorty sound fkn sick.
@michaelmyers1993 I dont think the comparisons are that close but Flowmasters do have their own tone and there are like 12 options of series to choose from to give you different volumes and tones. I personally think that all glasspacks sound the same and the only thing that seperates them is the outside material (304 stainless or aluminzed steel). Dynomax, Magnaflow, Borla, Corsa, Thrush...all the same
anything would sound beautiful with that set up.
Can't go wrong with any of those choices.
nice never really thought a Chevrolet engine could sound like that unless it was open headers !!
Great comparison, Thank you:-)
I would go with the hushpower bro series and shorty series and the super 10 series. those sounded the best to me.
Thanks that did help me alot
very nice video, i think the flowmaster 10 series is for my mustang 2004
Any recomendación for 94 DeVille V8 4.9 engine ,really need the tip before buying anything.just want a bit more muscle sound not the stock no sound
If you're looking to add a little tone but not wake up the neighborhood the Flowmaster 50 Series Delta Flow would make a good option; it has a moderate exhaust note, nothing too aggressive.

Super 10's
Hi Flowmaster! I love the new hushpower pro series mufflers! Love them so much I put them on my 2003 BMW M5. I have uploaded videos of my set up. Headers, custom x pipe, no cats, no resonators, and two 3" in 3" out Flowmaster Hushpower Pro series mufflers. Thanks for the awesome products!
They all sound so ssssweet.
Do you have any probs: in the US with noise regs: on road legal cars?
I like the "Super 50" mild sound 🚗
Why no super 44?
We didn't use a Super 44 because the Super 40 and Super 44 are very similar in terms of sound. The major difference between the two is case size. Super 44's have a slightly shorter and slimmer case than Super 40's.

very helpful thanks
70 series all day long. now do a dyno run of them all as well!
Great video thanks! Super 40's it is!
is a super 40 series alone with no cat back legally considered a muffler?
I got a good one 93 gmc vanndura. super 10 or 40? oh an its a 350 smallblock 5.7 v8.
big family van an at the same time my pops wants noise. it has a magnaflow but its kinda quiet.

I liked the hushpower shorties the best
same here, thats why I just put straight pipes on my 4.6L ford
I've heard they make another video like this one but with a mild motor and 2.5 inch exhaust.
nice video. just what i was looking for to decide whether to keep the original 40s or change.
i like the hushpowers cause you can hear the lope of the cam
SERIE'S 40 AND OR THE 10 SERIE'S 40'S TWO CHAMBER 3INCH ON MY S10 AND MUSTANG I OWNED ..LOVE THE SOUND ..
