  • Just purchased my 3rd Chevy Silverado, a 2019 Trail boss. In the past I've only owned flowmaster exhaust, they have been great, just a little too loud at times. On my 2019 I was excited to try a MagnaFlow exhaust and I was very disappointed.

    I’ve had magnaflows as well as flowmasters. Both have their place but you have to be patient with a magnaflow. It took about 3 months on my Tahoe but after it broke in the sound was second to none. Passing on the interstate became my favorite activity and it was still quiet in the neighborhood.

    I installed a Magnaflow #10416 on my 1997 Ford Expedition 4.6 and it sounds amazing. Way louder than stock but not loud enough that it gets annoying. No interior drone, you just hear it when you really floor it. It's has a very deep but aggressive rumble, it even backfires sometimes if I rev it into higher rpms.

    Flowmasters are just empty cans with baffles so youll get that louder cracky sounds with them, certain mangaflows have steel mesh like steel wool and fiberglass in them so it takes alot of that out but at the same time the good sound as well. You might want to look at a magnaflow magnapack which doesnt muffle it so much and is a more agressive sound.

    I swapped out the factory with FM super44 on my 19' Trail Boss and enjoy it alot. I pull a 12' enclosed trailer for work and man that rumble bouncing on the front of the trailer will have you ridin without the radio on. Ive had FM mufflers on a 79 Z28, 86 Gt mustang and 88 Gt mustang too. Love that rumble tone.

    This is a great video as it truly does confirm the claim that "Magnaflo is indeed quiet compared to the Flowmaster. I am going to proceed with my purchase of Master Flow FX as it's not too loud and not too quite but is perfect as it provides a deep rich V8 sound once you "really" step on the gas pedal.

  • @jgaudet09
    @jgaudet09 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Put a magnaflow magnapack on much more free flowing than flowmaster and much more refined sound. Plus it don't drone as bad and doesn't rust out as quick. I've had flowmaster 40's 44's and 10's, regular magnaflows, spintech, dynomax bullets and borlas. The only one that can compare to the magnapacks that I've had was the borlas but they are also a lot more money.
    Also if you do duals I found an x pipe works best with straight through mufflers like magnapacks and a h pipe works good with chambered mufflers like flowmaster.

    Apples to oranges. Flow master is always more aggressive due to baffles. When it ages, and the baffle welds let loose, ya get the nice rattle and clanging sound too. Makes your ride sound real shhty. Magnaflow takes time to develop sound and is always more rumble. Get louder over time. Mangaflow does make louder mufflers. Flowmaster is the exhaust that will make a stock vehicle sound tough even though it’s not, and they’re easy to spot. Sounding tough and being tough, well you get it. My magnaflow sound woke up when the headers were installed. Best part is I don’t have ear plugs in my cab or the shhty drone sound at 75mph.

    Takes more times to break in, depending on how much you drive. Takes me at least a month for a Magnaflow to break in to where it's noticeably louder.
    If it's still not loud enough, delete the 3rd cat, that'll give it a lot more rumble.

    Chambered muffler always sounds better on a stock exhaust. The catalytic converters disrupt the exhaust pulses, so a chambered muffler brings them back. A straight through muffler only quiets the sound post cats.
    Straight through mufflers sound good with no cats, and really good with an aftermarket camshaft, which really increases exhaust notes.

    You have to be careful with Chevy's and what muffler you choose. Think of Flowmasters as a muffler with baffles designed to produce certain frequencies of sounds. Think of Magnaflows as a filter that filters out the unwanted highs and certain mids, leaving you with the deep rumble. With the new engines that have Dynamic Fuel Management, it's even more crucial to pick the correct muffler. The DFM shuts down cylinders when the engine is under light load/cruising speeds. When it does this, it can dramatically change the frequencies produced by the mufflers. Flowmasters are notorious for producing a very annoying droning sound in the cab when the DFM kicks in and the muffler starts producing higher frequencies. I had a 2017 Silverado which had flowmaster 40s and would do this. When the engine kicked into fewer cylinders being used, there was this droning sound in the cab that was extremely irritating. I also had a 2018 Sierra with magnaflows and it did not have the droning sound. In this new body style, you also have to take the flapper valve(s) into consideration. Especially with flowmasters, cutting out the flapper will almost certainly cause the cab droning. Of course, most people want the flapper gone to have less restriction. The droning will also happen with the shorter length magnaflows if you remove the flapper. From the research I've been able to do on this topic, removing the flapper will not create the bad droning in the cab once you get into the larger length magnaflow mufflers. The Magnaflow 12589 (22 inch) appears to be the best at allowing you to get rid of the flapper and not have to worry about droning. Of course, your other option is to do a complete catback exhaust swap, which is tuned for your specific truck/engine and you don't have to worry about it, but a lot of people aren't wanting to spend up to $2K or more for an exhaust. If you have the flowmaster flowFX you definitely want to leave the flapper in because the people that removed it with that muffler later regret it because of the droning when the DFM kicks in.

      Your not really going to gain anything by just swapping the muffler. You would need to do full exhaust, and intake and a proper tune before you really noticed a difference. If your just swapping a muffler it really just boils down to the sound you prefer. If you plan to go full exhaust and have it tuned, then start getting picky on muffler choice for performance.
