  • definitely flowmaster

  • magnaflow for sure and a new set of rear tires for sure

  • Flowmaster's were better :D

  • thats pretty sad you had to wet down the street to do a burnout haha

  • tool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

    

  • yea flowmaster sounds better but on a built motor open exhaust

  • whats mopars?

  • @1978montecarlo:

    Dodge, Chrysler, Plymouth, Jeep are MOPAR

  • @Cudatodd- if it seems I came at you at a personal level, im sorry, didnt mean for it to come across that way. I wish there were more comparison vids like yours, I personally dont like flowmaster but thats my opinion. Now I will say, your cuda is awesome, love the wheels, probably be considering those for my RR when time comes.

  • @turbosigns - I wasnt bashing the man personally, I didnt say I hated him because of it, LOL, so why are you coming at me? I simply stated my opinion and will always stand by it, flowmasters sound shitty... I dont have an awesome video (yet) because I have yet to start my mopar project, which is a 74 Road Runner. Im sure ill catch heat but in a few years after I finish the motor, I will post some and Ill send you a link once posted... I do have magnaflow on my daily driver and very pleased.

  • @evoryda ---- I had to read your post several times to get it, but I now see you were just saying you don't like flowmasters... that's fine, I don't like em much either. At first glance it looked to me like you were givin todd some heat, but now I see you were not, my appologies for jumpin your post. I wish I had gone magnaflow outta the gate, but the money is spent and I have to live with what I did till play money justifies more muffler work. The 451 goes in soon and that'll wipe me outta $'s.

  • what magnaflows was on ur car like the sound of them

  • Flows all day. I had magnaflow, scrapped them....too quiet. Had Spintech....too loud. Finally bought Flows and realized I should have gone with em from the begining. The Flowmasters sound way better on your car too.

  • Magnaflows suck ass, flowmasters sound so much better

  • I like the magnaflows because they a make a nice crackly sound unlike the flowmasters where it's tinny and you just hear the car breathe. Thumbs up for magnaflow.

  • What I generally like better about Magnaflows is you can open it up and sound mean when you want, but you can still cruise and blend in with traffic if you keep your foot out of it. Flowmasters sound all right, like, when I hear a car with Flowmasters I usually think "oh that sounds pretty good", but I doubt I would ever get them, just because I like being able to "control" the sound if that makes sense.

  • Stop whining! Even default exhaust is better than 1.4L 8v engine.

  • 10 people like Ford.

  • @MrCordova2013 better than a chevy not as gay as a dodge after the cuda and charger THE REAL ONES mopar has failed on all levels

  • ps i like the mags which ones were they the rounds or ovals and part #??

  • My vote goes to open headers!

  • Magnaflow's sound can't be captured on camera, plus they sound way better under load while driving, much cleaner sound than Flowmaster, but there are straight through chambered mufflers that leave Flowmaster in the dust, like the Hushpower and the Hooker Aerochamber

  • BORLA

  • Magnaflow create much better sound than the Flowmaster!

  • the open exhaust soiunds way better

  • I have a 3" Magnaflow system on My Firebird, Sound Grrrrrreat!!! but cut the tony tiger shit! I know flowmasters would sound a hell lot better!!!

  • When I was a teen, loud = fast and powerful. I know better now. A fast quiet car is way cooler and is not a cop magnet. A lesson you yungins will learn sooner or later.

  • @moparnutjim thus the creation of exhaust cut outs : D

  • Can someone Please tell me the song that was playing in the beginning?!!

  • @Super98mustang

    Tool - Vicarious from album 10,000 days

  • i prefer the flowmasters. and by the way, what is the name if the song at the end of the video?

  • flowmaster all the way! no comparason!

  • I personally prefer MAgnaflow exaust. Best sound out there. I tried putting flowmasters on my mustang but it sounded shitty and made my ford sound even more tiny then it already was. Magnaflow is the only muffler Ive come across that can even make a shitty ford sound good. (sold now, must say that mustangs arent as good as people say they are, its a money pit.

    PS MOPAR RULES!!!!!

    Sincerely, A fellow Mopar enthusiest

  • JUST RUN THAT BEAST OPEN!!!

  • Flowmaster 50 series is too quiet. Put a super 44 and you'll see what's muscle sound!! In my opinion, flowmasters are perfect for old V8, and Magnaflow for new V8

  • Flowmaster 50 series isn't good. Put a super 44 and you'll see what's muscle sound!! In my opinion, flowmasters are perfect for old V8, and Magnaflow for new V8

  • people who decide on magnaflow over flowmaster mufflers are really un educated.. not to piss u guys off. but how many different mufflers do magnaflow put out? flowmaster has designed tons of mufflers for guys who dont wont that drone inside the car.. u cant just put one flowmaster muffler on there and decide flowmasters are shit.. ill tell u what those magnflowsare junk they look shinny but with in 2 years they look like shit and the packing burns out..and its a muscle car dont be a pussy...

  • @TheMetalshopmafia Flowmasters do sound good but they've been around forever, and for anyone that's run them any length of time - like me - the Magnaflows are the ticket. Dynomax Bullets are another good option depending on how loud you want it. The Flows sounded VERY good and unique 20 years ago. BUT, they don't flow well, and the sound isn't unique anymore. There's plenty of better mufflers out there.

  • @68Timber i have to disagree with they flow great compared to oem.. and magnaflow technolgy is as old as flowmaster's. people just grab whatever flowmaster muffler and then say ooo they drone. flowmaster makes a ton of mufflers that sound perfect on the highway and for anybody that has magnaflow and says they dont drone are lying to themselfes ive had 4 different cars with them and they all drone..

  • @68Timber and getting back to the flow part of ur comment.. have u seen what flowmaster actually flows? its not much less than a borla or magnaflow.. and for ur everyday street car on the dyno ull never see that differance. i know ive ran thousends of dyno pulls with all these muffler's. but to each is own everybody likes a certin sound. and u can make any muffler sound good with correct piping size and muffler placement..

  • id get the Flowmasters

  • i like the maganflow soo much more than flowmaster.....but imho shoulda kept it open haha :)

  • So what are the negatives for running straightpipes with NO mufflers?

  • @Krieger91 their extremely fucking loud, anal raping drone in the car, illegal, makes it hard to start the car since there is no back pressure due to no muffler.

    reason why people do it is to gain HP, lice race cars dont have mufflers, thats why their so loud

  • slowmasters sound like a handful of pennies in a metal box, magnaflow has a much better sound.

  • I prefer the magnaflow mufflers!

  • shoulda kept it open lol

  • The Flowmaster 50 will sound nice under my Buick !

  • hey which is the part number of this magnaflows?

  • flowmaster baby

  • open exhaust ;)

  • Sure flowmasters sound "cool", but think of all the performance loss; honestly, a couple of V's welded in the middle of a can vs. a straight through pipe? Come on O_o I was disapointed in flowmasters when I put them on my El Camino, so I switced them out for dynomax bullets!

  • @AxonHilock 10hp woooo, not much nor noticable

  • The fagnaflows have to much of a high pitched poppin noise:( bad decision but saaaaaweeeet car!!!)

  • @gadejfan agree 100%. not bad at the low rpms but sound like a cheap glasspack at higher rpms.

  • hay cool vid love the car its amazing hay come and chech out my vids

  • Total honest all of them sounds great off of that car doesn't matter i guess whatever you fell like it works great.

  • This is just what I was looking for, I have 40 series flows and they drive me crazy at around 2000 rpm . Anybody that thinks flows sound good dosen't have a motor.

  • @blubu68 because you can't handle drone? a 390 is plenty of motor

  • @ndubb1 I hate the drone, no doubt a 390 is plenty of motor.

  • This is just what I was looking for, I have 40 series flows and they drive me crazy at around 2000 rpm

  • open headers beats both lol!!!

  • hell ya mopar or no par

  • open exhuast

  • 71 Cuda and &1 Challenger ... BEST looking cars EVER made !

    True ART !

  • should've went with flowmaster 40s or super 40s. the 50s are wayyyyy too restricted and quiet

  • Love the burnout!

  • TOOL?

  • NOTHING GET OVER FLOWMASTER !!!!

  • @JoNniixD Borla? ;) Flowmaster definitely got the upper hand over Magnaflow

  • that is a sexy ass cuda! oh my lord i would give anything to have this

  • Sweet! TOOL! Rock on!

  • Should have gone with a some good glasspacks. I've tried all three on my El Camino and the sheer sound volume of dynomax bullets or cherrybombs is enough to convince anyone in less than a minute! They're just pure SOUND, what more could you want? BTW they outflow Flowmaster and Magnaflow...

  • Here the Flowmasters sound better to me, but that's just my opinion. But I've seen other situations where Magnaflows definitely sound better. Of course it's not just about the sound, the performance is what really counts.

  • i would personal run it open headers but i live back in the country and know all the cops so but if i had to chose it would be flows but thrush welded series sound good

  • i like the sound of my magnaflows over my 40 series ...

  • no exhaust/open headers always wins for sound on a v8 in my opinion.....

  • The magnaflows sound ALOT better in my opinion!!!

  • Love the car, try Flojo Mufflers to get that deep V8 sound with very little resonance driving down the highway.

  • Magnaflow straight thru are the better mufflers, but open headrers are by far, the best sound.

  • i got a pair of the loudest flows on my 69 roadrunner with a 512 sixBBL in it and it sounds realy sweet a friend of mine can hear me cruising by his town when i go past it on the highway :D

  • I like the flowmaster sound more =)

  • Indeed Mopars rule!!!

  • magnaflow sounds wayyy better!

  • Open exhaust FTW

  • nice

    

  • keep the pipes open!

  • straight pipes sounds the best on it, also WAY louder which is cool + illegal where I live, magnaflow's sound a lot cleaner to me while the flowmasters sounded like a truck its kinda dirty sounding

  • i'll take mine open...

  • hey man how do u burn wheel like that?

    ive tryed but icant seem to do it

  • flowmaster hands the best for american muscle !!!!!!

  • dude go with the flowmasters.i work at imco where cherry bombs are made .lol if you only knew dude.

  • I Like Magnaflow better but i would choose Withought exhaust sound so beast a muscle car!

  • hi there i own a mexican duster and i love mopars you have a great machine !!

  • whats the name of the song in the beggining???

  • hard choice cant really tell from the vid but thats a badass car anyway

  • Modern warefare 2 is better

  • By dronemaster i mean they have a distinct drone at highway speed. which is a low bass tone that resonates in your ears and drives you nuts if you are driving that speed for any length of time.

  • @cudatodd which one performed better? Did you run quarter miles with each set to compare times?

  • @cudatodd what muffler?

  • @cudatodd another reason why ill choose magnaflow. im a car audio enthusiast and i actually like having my vehicle noise as low as possible but im also a guy who loves a good sounding exhaust system and even more so the better air flow and power gains from one too. so ive had flowmasters in the past and they were always loud as fuck, well i want all the benefits from a aftermarket exhaust system plus the better sound but yet still want the sound to be mild enough to enjoy my speakers. magnaflow!

  • @cudatodd flowmasters are good hot rod and track mufflers. I went on a 4 hour drive in my hot rod truck that has flows on it. I was about ready to shoot myself when I arrived at my destination and forget trying to have a conversation during the drive.

  • @cudatodd LOL you're just a crybaby, that car shouldn't be on the highway

  • @Yoshumari

    all i did was post a video that compared the two of the most popular mufflers on the same car, because when i was trying to decide i couldnt find such a video. Just trying to save other guys some money, i learn quit a bit off here because other guys go to the trouble of post info.

    so i dont get your crybaby comment and if you dont like muscle cars why are you watching these vids.

    what do you drive that is so much more road worthy?

  • Got to make you laugh when your smokin em off and the camera backs off and bang there are kids playing. lol Hot rodders in the making.

  • The flows are louder, and to me the magz have a more clear sound for each exhaust note, not as deep sounding but maybe research went into them since they came after the flows? Todd , what do you mean by Dronemaster?

  • This video is further proof that Magnaflows sound can't be captured on camera, same with Borla, Aero, Hooker and especially Corsa.

  • i'd rather be the person throwing a peace sign saying 'later' in my rear view window than be the loud ass restricive lover trailing behind looking at my magnaflows ass anyday. NICE car by the way.

  • flows sound soo much more meatier

  • I have to say the flowmasters sound a hundred times better. Nice car BTW!

  • I love how this video shows how shitty fagnaflows sound,especially compared to flows,but it says you switched over to the magnas.Did you not watch your own video?

  • @FATMIKED5183 The flows do sound awesome, and the video represents the sound pretty well but for some reason the magnaflow dont sound the same as on the video. they sound much better in real life. the other factor was i do a ton of highway driving and the dont call the flows 'Dronemasters" for no reason.

  • @cudatodd That and flowcrappers are the most restrictive muffler you can buy next to stock. And sorry i had to join in the doucher muffler names too

  • @cudatodd Then doesn't what you said defeat the point of determining which is better via youtube?Why ask us to help you if we can't?And you have your mind made up anyway?I think the 4 people who thumbs upped you shoulda probably taken that into consideration too.

  • I had flowmasters on my car too. I switched to the Thrush welded chambered mufflers in 3" offset in/ center out and they are almost identical to a 40 series flowmaster (at about 1/3 the price). The "drone" was reduced significantly and the only place i hear resonance inside my car now is at about 1800 rpms. It is a much more tolerable ride than with the Flowmasters I had. I was borrowing the flowmasters from a friend and thank GOD I did, cause I wouldnt have spent $200 on muffflers.

  • @FATMIKED5183 flowmasters sound like shit, sounds like a hollow steel box, whats the use? pinging sounds better than a GROWL? come on... highway driving is retardedly annoying with flowmaster... magnaflow is far better sounding and you can actually hear yourself while driving and the tone at idle is a lot more enjoyable. i think flowmaster makes any car sound like crap... just my opinion

  • @evoryda You're totally right!!! +1

  • @evoryda ----- Hey, why you gotta act so rude dude? He went to the trouble of showing you the two types on his dime, not yours... and he likes the FM's! I don't personaly like the FM's myself, I had to add glass packs to my 69 charger just to tolerate the interior noise. But seriously, where is your awesome ride with the magnaflows, wheres your demo vid? I think the FM's sound GREAT on the outside, better than MF's, but the inside is a different story... Maybe on his Cuda it's quiet inside!?

  • @FATMIKED5183 if u want a true comparision of dronemasters vs magnaflow magnapacks, check the most recent vids of my 94 mustang 5.0 exhaust install

  • Flowmasters always sound better.

  • open sounds best

  • Straits son

  • open exhaust all the way! lol. but seriously though, i prefer the flowmasters just a bit over the magnaflows. nice cuda btw.

  • magnaflow all day. everyone always wonders why my truck is louder and sounds better =)

  • @badboyviper77 flows are definately louder than magnaflow. besides, magnaflow is too airy when revving. its short spurts of noise, unlike flowmaster, when you rev its nothing airy or short. a nice bassed sound of your engine.

  • @sgh091 not when it comes to new vehicles. 5.3L silverados with series 44's on them are not louder than my 4.6 f150 with a magnaflow. and mine is deeper than the rest. i chirp alarms every where i go

  • i would pick the flowmaster but its your car

  • i'm a diehard chevy guy but i love that car (:

  • at first i liked the flowmasters better but i like the magnaflows better cause it sounds just like my dads race car used to.......badass either way :)

  • how about one flowmaster and one magnaflow?

  • @koollikeKenickie Hahahaha...I like that one. Or you can just get a pair of Spintechs. But one flowmaster and one magnaflow might work dumped LOL

  • MAGNAFLOWS!!!!!

  • Thats what we like, had all of em since 1974, and still do, NOTHING like a hard running MOPAR!

  • nice vid and nice car. MOPAR!!!!!!!

  • id go with either open exhausts or the flows, my dads got magnaflows on our dodge truck and they give a rel throaty sound to em sounds nice no matter wich way ya go, maybe a different one each week haha

  • sounds nice man

  • Flowmasters definetely sound better than magnaflow. flowmaster sounds like a classic muscle should! nice 71 cuda

  • Nice Burnout and great Car! AWESOME!

  • flowmaster 50 sound better than 40 and 44 anyway.

  • i thought the magnaflows would sound better, but dang they don't. It sounds farty. The flowmasters sound tough and less like a truck.

  • Nothing beats a flowmaster for the deep tone they give. Magnaflow sucks.

  • Yep, magnaflows sound like a farm truck. Put the flowmasters back on.

  • those magnaflows fuckin suck dick make sound almost like dare i say it a ricer?

  • this is it

    OPEN EXHAUST its bad ass

    flowmasters

    dont even talk bout magnaflows they suck

  • @SFFRET spintech baby spintech!

  • your ears must suck, the Magnaflows sound like straight pipes but they pop less

  • Straight is best.

  • amazing

  • friend of mine got a vw rabbit with magnaflows

  • dude thats one sweeeeet cuda, marry me... ow shit im dude too :)) and thumbs up for tool :)

  • I've had few comments about "how could you waste a set of tires" . What you cant see in the burnout is that the rears were swapped for junkyard tires.

  • what engine do u have?

  • Good comparison! I had Flowmasters and liked the sound alot. Got a great deal on a complete Magnaflow system with 'X' and will install on my restoration. From the vid, I think I'll prefer the Flowmasters, but it's all good.

    I'm not sure why anyone would roast a good set of tires, though. Maybe they're already toasted?

  • My mouth fell open when the vid started! That is one badass and beautiful 71 Cuda! I mean seriously!!! O_O I'm still in aw! btw, Magnaflow!

  • magnaflow

  • Flows for the win...

  • i like the flowmaster better.

  • OPEN!!!

  • ppl have differeny opinions, but flowmasters sound awesome depending on the engine and combination. but either or your cuda sounds sick!

  • open exhaust! :D

  • the straight pipe sounded the best.

  • Thats for the comparison video. The Magnaflow definitely gets my vote. I like Dynomax also. Flowmaster sound like a hollow tin can.

  • Sorry, that was supposed to say thanks not thats.

  • i'd go with magnaflow ANY day. ya the flowmasters may SOUND cool but they have no performance advantage. The magnaflows give you the great sound plus the performance.

  • dude its a fucken muffler whats it gonna give you 3-5 more hp you arnt going to notice shit just the sound FLOWMASTER ANY DAY

  • Haha whatever dude. Flowmasters and Magnaflows both sound great..i just prefer the magnaflows. so dont hate...

  • @1970bird

    I have Magnaflows in my 63 Galaxie and I think they sound sweet but some mechanic told me that Magnaflows are for Japanese cars.........WTF ?

  • hahaha since when? I havent once heard or seen a jap car with Magnaflows.

    But 63 Galaxie? sweet! got any pics?

  • @1970bird

    No pics yet, but I'll try to post on Youtube sometime.

  • @1970bird

    haha well magnaflows are just mufflers so you can put them on just about whatever you want. my cousin has a two chamber magnaflow on his scion tc because it makes them sound deeper than the rice cans they usually use. nice cuda though!

  • magnflows the sleeper...Slowmaster is 4 ppl wit no motor that wanna think they got some...lol...seen it and wooped on flowmaster cars many a tyme

  • I agree. Flowmaster's are simply NOISE.  Magnaflows are sweeeeeeeettt.

  • flowmaster is the best

  • FLOWMASTER ALL THE WAY!!!!

    Badass car!!!! Great Burnout!!!!

  • Flowmaster

  • flowmaster... magnaflow just is a low tone hardly any sound.. i love flowmaster cause its awsome sound and loud as fuck!

  • flowmaster - sweet burn out - and yes MOPARS do rule

  • i wonder how it will sound if i put that on my Dakota R/Y 5.9 360? will sound awesome?

  • go stock exhaust dont need some stupid exhaust system on old cars
