exhaust...

[backwoods boy]

i just got an 88 fullsize blazer w/ a 350 and STOCK exhaust anyways im lookin for somethin that will make it deep and throaty not loud and crappy also kinda steerin away from flowmasters it will be a single muffler w/ dual tips thanx for the input

[Da_Mtg_Man]

I've got true duals with Hedman headers ( no kitty) on my 93 full size Blazer and I am running Dynamax's. There are not as loud as Flowmasters but still throaty.

[TRX450R_Racer]

Magna Flow!

[Fox17]

Magna Flow!

Yup!

[backwoods boy]

[Chuck_Norris]

magna flow or hooker aero chamber

[backwoods boy]

what about cherry bomb elites it says theyre designed for the deep V8 sound

[backwoods boy]

Full length. Make no mistake, They are loud, Louder than any 2 into 1 into 2 with flowmasters but they could be louder if I had flowmasters.

[backwoods boy]

how much did you pay for the headers and where did you get em done at

[Da_Mtg_Man]

I got mine in Tampa at United speed world and I don't remember what I paid for them. A place called Raindow muffler on 38th Ave and 28th St installed everything for a couple hundred bucks but this was 4-5 yrs ago.

[Chuck_Norris]

Summit racing & Jegs are the best place to buy parts.
Try and avoid the K&N filters you may want to look into AEM

[yfz122]

Raven mufflers if you can find them. They don't cost a lot and they are quieter than flowmaster. They sound great. Kind of an old school hot rod sound.

[backwoods boy]

thanx guys this is helpin me out i dont wanna git some crappy loud system that i end up changing 10 times

[backwoods boy]

ya i think raven went outta business there website wont work www.goravin.com
what about glasspacks? this is my first chevy but ive had friends run them on smallblock fords and they all seemed to like em

ok, get some headers, and a universal magnaflow cat and a magnaflow muffler and have it put on. thats what im gonna do. maybe without the headers. theyre $500. but the universal cat and muffler arent that much at all and you can have the economy muffler guy put them on with rolled ss tips. you cant get a much better sound than my tundra had.

[backwoods boy]

im just gunna put em on myself  O0rigged w/ clamps

[Chevy1500z71]

why in the world would anybody buy a magniflow universal high flow cat? you know whats even higher flow... no cats at all. and on an 88 the 02 senser is before the cats so you wont get a service engine light or anything, even with true dauls and headers and all. i have true dauls with shortie headers, no cats, h pipe and 2 flowmaster 40 muffler.
heres a clip


if you want it quite, get true daul 50 series. my 40s arent realy that loud because the tips are out the back corners, if you turn em down it makes it 2x as loud.

[backwoods boy]

that sounds good but i dont what flowmaster i was thinkin dynomax or cherry bomb ive heard good things about raven on fullsize chevy.com but cant find a link

what about this intake anyone ever heard of it
its the only cold air i can find

[Chevy1500z71]

raven? thats an offbrand,just because some random hillbilly on fullsize chevy has one dosent mean its a good muffler. if you like the mellow sound of a glasspack, thats up to you but dont get some offbrand cheepo like raven or dynomax or anything like that. whats your user name on fullsize chevy?

[Chevy1500z71]

o and why no flowmaster? and that cold air intake is good becaue it picks up air from the iner fender wich is basicly cold air from behind the headlightes and grill. all the other kits have open element filters that just suck up all the blazing hot air off of your headers.

[Andy9933]

also what about kn airfilter an oem replacement style do they let dirt in who else makes a performance air filter oem style

When ever you open up a filter to let more air in,your going to let more dirt in.My silverado has 210,000 miles on it and has a k&n in it since new but thats my own opinion. Andy

[backwoods boy]

ya i heard that flowmaster has bafflers that hurt your low end torque
also im not saying k+n is bad i had one on my f150 along w/ true dual flowmasters but ive just heard some reports of k+n letting dirt in if you go offroad
i dont have a screenname yet i will be making one though shortly and it will be backwoods boy

[Chevy1500z71]

baflers? baffles produce back pressure wich makes low end torque. no backpressure meens that your truck will be gutless down low and make more power up top(glasspacks) and k&ns may let dirt in if you dont ever cleen them but i doubt you will ever have a problem from runing a k&n.

flowmaster makes more botom end than magnaslow and they sound way more agressive, glasspacks are way to mellow sounding, but some people like that... basicly if your runing  no cats, than you need backpressure(flowmaster), if your runing cats than you can get away with a glasspack and still have botom end power but it wont sound good imo. nothing will outperform true dauls with no cats and flowmater 40s. also dont go to big pipe. 2.25 or 2.5 is more than enough for true dauls, 3-3.5 for a single. if you go to big you will loose botom end power from less backpressure. if your hung up on geting a glasspck than your beter off with a singe system with your stock cat and have good lowend power, but if you want a real exhaust system like true dauls than you need flowmaster.

[Chevy1500z71]

hey, you know what, i have a flowmaster 50 series that bolts on cat back with 3.5" pipe with a single in dual out muffler with turn down tips right after the muffler which is right before the rear fender. the 50 is a quieter muffler but the turndowns make it about as loud as my 40s out the back corners.it sounds real good, beter than any bolt on magniflow system. it fits 88-95 chevy trucks and is in good shape. ill sell it for 150$. i used to run it with a guted cat and it sounded realy good.

[backwoods boy]

thanx for the info i'll prolly be runnin the flows now
i loved the way they sounded on my f150
i'll git back w/ ya on the ehxaust my buddys got an 8'' lift kit springs front and back no blocks including shocks n all for 400 and he'll help install it for free
