  • A quick comparison between the 2 chamber Flowmaster 40's with an X pipe vs 3 Chamber Delta Flows using an H pipe. I made this change and couldn't find any good videos so I made one.

      Too tin canny sounding for my old ears. Flowmasters make everything sound like a 1980’s 5.0 Foxbody. I guess if you grew up in the era. I grew up with glass packs.

  • @overcastfriday81
    @overcastfriday81 Місяць тому

    From the sample, I can tell this is a nice raucous cam that would be right at home in a 60s drag car. The 40 lets that personality out. A cool cop should have no problem with it. On the other hand, if you want to be more lowkey or have a jerk cop citing for noise, the 50 is a better choice. If you use your car for long distances (eg. LA to Pismo Beach and back), you're better off with the 50. Loud exhausts --even when cool-- wear down the people listening. For what it's worth, I can still make out the cam's personality with the 50s. It's just not as obvious.

  • @davidkeeton6716
    @davidkeeton6716 2 роки тому +3

    My vote, 3 chamber and H pipe, always H pipe for the win. Or no crossover. Old school sound with no raspiness for anything older than say '93. Any pushrod motor except a Ford SOHC 427.

    I have 2 chamber Jegs Flowmasters and 3" full exhaust behind a 400+ hp 401 FE. Too loud. What percentage quieter do you think the 50s are compared to the 40s? Like you said, kinda subjective, depending on what it's doing, idling, part throttle, wide open. Mine is pure straight duals, no crossover. Too much of a cracking for lack of a better word, on both a sharp whack of the throttle and medium hard acceleration. I need to find something a bit quieter.

    • @vdrivevideo
      @vdrivevideo  7 місяців тому +1

      It’s hard to describe but the difference is noticeable both in and out of the car. The 50’s are a deeper yet quieter note. Also noteworthy is the cross pipe. It also tames it down a tick as well as adding a smoothness to the lower rpm range. I highly recommend the cross pipe and IMo I even like the cross pipe over the x pipe. Good luck and thanks for watching!
