Anyone have the Flowmaster muffler?



some people seem to love flowmaster on their 4 cyls, but in my experience they sound HORRIBLE. tinny, hollow, like a large paintcan for a muffler... both 60 and 40 series.

for reference, i run a $32 glasspack with no resonator and i love it. waste more gas on the overrun than on the acceleration, deep, loud, raspy. hehe. thought it does drone alot at highway speeds, im not a highway guy. 

(i know, a glasspack isnt great, flows bad comparatively, wears out fast...all that, but its what came on the car, its cheap and sounds good)
