  • Sound comparison between a Borla X-pipe and Atak cat-back in unmuffled mode and a mid-mounted Flowmaster two-chamber Super 44 muffler (Part number 8425454) in place of the X-pipe on. a Vortech supercharged 2018 Mustang GT. Similar sound to an original 40 series muffler, but better flowing. Since this is a single-muffler installation, I wanted the best-flowing two-chamber Flowmaster version, so I chose the Super 44.
    Why did I mid-mount it rather than use two Flowmaster mufflers in the rear location like in Flowmaster's American Thunder cat-back system? I wanted more of a classic Flowmaster tone, and I reason that having a length of tailpipe after the muffler (like in a truck or a Fox body Mustang) would give me more of the iconic Flowmaster tone. Did it succeed? Let me know what you think in the comments.

      I liked the sound quality, but it was a bit quiet for me.

    Wow sounds great! Are you still running this setup? Can you post some more vids on this? How would the sound change moving the muffler back some and adding x or h pipe?

      I didn't keep it on, at it was too mild for me. In retrospect, it might work better without the Borla cat-back as I think the Borla ATAK cat-back still uses the mufflers to cancel out some of the howl...even with the valves open. I need to revisit this.

      Ok so you had the single flow master and a borla catback? I was thinking you had straight pipe after the flow master?

      @@mojo7709 Since I only ran the valves "open" for the Flowmaster, I assume the Borla cat-back didn't affect the sound. But I could be mistaken. That's why I'd like to literally try a "muffler delete" axle-back with the Flowmaster to see if that has an affect.

    That's the closest I've heard. Sounds really good. 3 inch pipes?

      No, the standard Flowmaster 2.5" tailpipes.

      It certainly sounds more "mature" than the muffler "bypass," which is just "noise."

    Does the single muffler instead of 2 seem to be a little restrictive? Cost hp?

      Perhaps, but the Super 44 has larger internal passages versus a 40-series case. I didn’t dyno test it.

    Why when I look up the part number is says super 40 not super 44.

    • @Mustang-Geek

      Part # 8425454. Flowmaster's website says Super 44.

      The factory manifolds and catalytic converters certainly dominate the sound.

      @@Mustang-Geek I have long tunes on mine. I had to replace the H Pipe with a magnaflow xpipe resonator and Magna flow mufflers. I had an Hpipe and Roush axle back and after the Long Tubes it sounded like ass. These Coyotes make awesome power but sound like ass.

      @@freedom6919741 Agreed. I don't think Coyotes sound very good. Long tubes go a LONG way toward making them sound better. I bet a mid-mount Flowmaster and rear muffler delete would really sound better. Easy to try, at least!
