Just finished installing the Flowmaster. Drove it on the highway, city, and country roads, to try and get a thorough experience. Here are my initial impressions...Cold start is much louder and deeper. Even when warm it's way deeper and a little louder, and you can definitely here a slight deep burble when at a stop light and just idling. It's actually not a lot louder on the inside ( but much deeper and definitely somewhat louder) which is just fine with me. From the outside my girlfriend says it's a lot louder than before, and she would know, because she has drove behind me several times before when it was the stock exhaust. As far as drone goes it's almost next to nothing. Even in high gear and lugging along between 1500-2000 rpm you can detect a slight bit of a deep base like sound, but I wouldn't call that drone. Absolutely no rasp or anything like that. Just a nice deep tone with no popping or anything. Overall I'm very impressed with this exhaust. Fitment was spot on as well. When I get some time I'll post some videos.

Borla Atak axle-back with dual black tips for mine. Sounds amazing ! No drone at any speed.
I spend much more manual shift mode (up and down), just to hear those pipes! I did check out Flowmaster...their warranty is not as good and neither are the build materials. |

Personally I'm very happy with it. The best way I can describe it is that it has a significantly deeper tone than stock, while being only moderately louder on the inside, but quite a bit louder on the outside. No drone, and has a nice little burble at idle. At WOT it screams pretty good, but is never raspy. In fact the stock exhaust sounded more high pitched and raspy to me. Is it better than the Atak? Obviously I'll never know, but considering the price I paid, and the overall sound and tone, I'm completely happy with it. I strongly considered Borla as well, but have no regrets with this one

Even though you have a 6, I'm having the same debate for my SS so I appreciate your feedback. I really do think the Flowmaster and AWE systems sound the best, followed by the S-type Borla. The AWE doesn't haver NPP, so that's out for me. Is the Borla really worth the extra money? I guess the better stainless is a plus, but I don't daily drive mine and it does not see winters so the 409 stainless should hold up just fine. I figured the flowmaster will drone a little but I also don't expect my car to be silent on the highway. I'm really leaning towards the flowmasters although a local speed shop is trying to talk me into the Borla. Too many good choices I guess?
