Love the muffler comparison test that dude holding all of those mufflers up for us should get a free chicken dinner. Truck sounds awesome sweet job on the exhaust
One of the things that may escape some people is that the Ultra Quiets have more "pops" to them and I think that suggests that it sounds more true to a straight pipe. The others will color the sound of the exhaust more and drone more. I think the Ultra quiets as resonators and the Carven Rs as the actual mufflers would've also been a mean combo.
You have a great muffler shop. It is really cool to test out various mufflers before installing and choosing the right sound as a customer. Too bad you guys aren't in Southern California. Great videos you make of your business.
I bet the Vibrant Bottle Resonators coupled with a Spintech 6000 down the line would sound excellent; would have plenty of tone when you're actually in the throttle, and be damn near stock sound levels when idling or cruising with zero drone.
The smaller flowmaster outlaws were the best sounding and what the point of having all that work done to engine if your going to put a mufflers on their that makes it sound like a mild cam .
I wish i wwouldve went with the super 10, my flowmaster 40 just sounds loud thru 2000-2400 rpm them ģets quiet again after that it seems. Id like it to be loud theu the entire range. Might do the super 10 dumped before the axle
@@chrishansen7004 hell yeah, im currently waiting to buy a cam until i get some other mods done but i have some short tube headers im getting ready to put on and iv since got rid of the flowmaster for a bullet style resonator dumped over the rear axle. It sounds excellent now lol
Love the sound of the SLP Loudmouth 1's personally. The Black Widow Widow Maker is another favorite. Corsa pro series or Spintech 9000's sound wicked on an ls with headers, x pipe and equal lengths
@@luisbernal8283 probably add a torque or 2 on a stock setup. When cammed it will help drastically. You need to understand how exhaust pulses work in the exhaust stream and how they differentiate between open and chamber style mufflers. You sound un educated on the subject.
Would be cool if you guys did a few more of these where you setup microphones around the bay and outside. Really let the people at home get an in depth experience
Thanks for the demonstration on all of the mufflers. I'm still wondering what to install on my challenger shaker. 5.7 I done the resonators deleted and put 4inch quads on it that made a big difference to the sound. Might get the bullets 🤔love your videos
I’ve got a 2000 silverado with a stage 2 cam kit in the 5.3 engine, headers, mild stall, I’d like you guys opinion on what I should change the exhaust to, it’s got a magnaflow dual in dual out over axle dump..I like the ground pound of the axle dump..so probably keep that.. thst flowmaster dual in dual out or some single chamber flows..I think there called super 10’s..and if you guys were open on a Saturday I’d come see ya and let ya set me up
You're one of the best muffler shops out there you just let this guy hear these mufflers before he made his decision. Over here in my city they don't even want to talk and they overcharge
99-06 are the best 1st gen 5.3's with no AFM. You can get 500k out of these engines. The 6.0 lq4 (basically an all iron ls2) have been documented at 1 million miles on the original engine. Only Toyota has built a 1milion mile gas V8.
LS manifolds are basically shorty headers, longtubes give you more top end hp but not really enough to notice during street driving, and you have to tune the engine to get any actual gain from headers so no reason to change if you don't want to tune it
I thought about putting one of the x-pipes on my Monte Carlo. Right now it just has headers with true dual pipes and. Where is best position for it and what are the advantages of a x-pipe
I have a 2023 chevy rst with corsa catback im thinking adding the carven exhaust. But i also want to add like a valvetronic to be able to quiet the exhaust . What you recommend for this case?
Keep your stock one in one out cat. Add Dodge resonator. Y out two over axle one for each side. effects for the 😜BEST SOUNDS 👍 looks with Y chrome Tips #1 L.Gee.Stock Mud flaps tip protection.
Man I love this channel! Just subscribed. I put up a couple videos on my channel of Dynomax 3" Race Bullets and Jones 3" Max Flow if you want to hear the difference. Race Bullets were too "cackly" to me, Jones is deeper.
I have a trailblazer with a btr stage 2 truck cam in a 5.3L I got a flow fx muffler single in single out with a y pipe and it has this like drowning water sound at idle and I don't like it. Would deleting the Y pipe and do a dual in single out sold that problem?
Ok,I have a question I think you can answer. I have a 2012 Camaro 6.2. It has stage 3 cam,complete dod delete,long tube headers,no cats at all into borla ataks,I’m in the process of installing an x pipe. It’s so freaking loud,what mufflers would you suggest. I don’t want it to quiet,but I have to quiet it down. I want a deep tone,thanks in advance.
Lose the cross pipe and come out over top of the trans support like the passenger side. Use a 90° X pipe and keep it as close to equal length as possible. His work truck would sound more like a Nascar or Corvette.
I have a serious question I think you guys will know the answer. I have no cats on my 5.3 right now. Will high flow cats make my check engine light stay off and will the fuel trims be back to normal and not run so rich like it is right now
I thought the smaller flowmaster outlaws sounded the best.
you are right!
I agree
That’s what I run on mine and she’s rowdy with the cam and long tubes I have
The Outlaw with the 3" inlet sounded better than the 2.5" version.
Love the muffler comparison test that dude holding all of those mufflers up for us should get a free chicken dinner. Truck sounds awesome sweet job on the exhaust
I like this kind of comparison. That said it's going to sound different when they add the turbo.
I will have to agree with him. The Carven R with the Flowmasters Shorty Outlaws a close second. They set off the sound of the cam at idle.

@@ragintaurusmusclemercury7023 🤣🤣🤣
Running 3" through an X pipe, into the muffler then 2.5 out to a 5" rolled end has a hell of a nice sound.
The Vibrant bottles were good no raspy sound but each person has a personal taste all good!
The 2 flowmasters and the last one were the best sound should of tried some super 10s
sounds really good... by the look of the truck it looks like a 99-02 Silverado
You didn’t watch the video?
@@Icutmetal yea. Apparently they did because he says 2004 like 5 times. 2004 is the cateye bodystyle. Not this bodystyle.
Front end is not stock. Could have easily switched it to 99.5-02 front end.
I like the vibrants.
1999-2002 front clip and gauges. The 03-06 trucks has a 120 mph speedometer and the avalanche cat eye front clip and extended bumper.
Think I preferred the bigger of the two Flowmaster Outlaws
I like the two outlaws myself. The longer set has a better tone and the shorter one is louder.
@@ragintaurusmusclemercury7023 yes they seem to have a tone all their own. Weird considering they're all glasspacks at the end of the day.
I like the Outlaws from Flowmaster myself !
They have a low rumble that I think sounds Great 👍 Wish I could get a sound like that out of my Tacoma . 😆
You can. Sell the junky v6 and get a v8 eZ solution 🙃
Wish they’d put at least the 4.7 V8 in the Tacomas then I’d buy one. I’m happy with my ram 1500 though
Carven 💯%sounds good
The ultra quiets sounded really good imo

Sick! Sounds so clean, Love your videos Exhaust Addicts.
Vibrant sounds the best to me I like that deep tone BUT the carvens had the best idle
You guys - WOW!!! What a perfect and amazing video!!! I absolutely love a true 100% comparison like this! THANK YOU!!! 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
You never did let it idle on all mufflers to establish a baseline. What is the decibels when idling???? Jabbing the gas tells us nothing.
Love it, you gotta do more of these comparison videos
I bet the Vibrant Bottle Resonators coupled with a Spintech 6000 down the line would sound excellent; would have plenty of tone when you're actually in the throttle, and be damn near stock sound levels when idling or cruising with zero drone.
I have the carven r muffler and it’s definitely the best sounding one in this video!
I am a fan of vibrant but that carven sounds rawn and nice and the idle sound is great 👍
That's awesome finally comparing many different mufflers at the same time!
It’s about time someone did this comparison! Too bad we couldn’t hear them under load. Great job!!👍🏻
The smaller flowmaster outlaws were the best sounding and what the point of having all that work done to engine if your going to put a mufflers on their that makes it sound like a mild cam .
Preference
I would go with the flow masters too but they have too much drone
Black Widow mufflers are still my favorite and sound the best for cammed motors
Sure if you like to sound like a clapped out squatted truck.
vibrant ultra quiets are the best sounding out of that bunch
The VIBRANT Bottle Resonators sound the best to me, they cancel the rasp tone better.
Flownaster Outlaw has the best sound.
I got a flowmaster super 10 on mine with a 3 inch tip and it sounds wicked, especially with a K&N cold air intake 👌
I wish i wwouldve went with the super 10, my flowmaster 40 just sounds loud thru 2000-2400 rpm them ģets quiet again after that it seems. Id like it to be loud theu the entire range. Might do the super 10 dumped before the axle
@@LandonClimbscam and longtube headers would make that flow master 40 sound good 😉
@@chrishansen7004 hell yeah, im currently waiting to buy a cam until i get some other mods done but i have some short tube headers im getting ready to put on and iv since got rid of the flowmaster for a bullet style resonator dumped over the rear axle. It sounds excellent now lol
In my opinion, Carven exhaust R series is the best on the market.
Aristides, I agree. Carven sounds great.
Carven mufflers makes any vehicle loose power
Love the sound of the SLP Loudmouth 1's personally. The Black Widow Widow Maker is another favorite. Corsa pro series or Spintech 9000's sound wicked on an ls with headers, x pipe and equal lengths

One of the worse unless you like that squatted clapped out sound.
I’m a big fan of dynomax bullets, but you gotta get the baby ones
Vibrant Smooth performance cruiser sound 1 st flow outlaws for performance and cam sound Dynomax sound like mellow outlaws.
Would be cool if you guys did a few more of these where you setup microphones around the bay and outside. Really let the people at home get an in depth experience
short outlaws take the cake. FYI, the Carven R's were on backwards and are directional
Flowmaster outlaw instantly for me
Loved it. Maybe the next one could be on that Grand Marquis on the other lift. The bottle resonators sounded better than I thought
Thanks for the demonstration on all of the mufflers. I'm still wondering what to install on my challenger shaker. 5.7 I done the resonators deleted and put 4inch quads on it that made a big difference to the sound. Might get the bullets 🤔love your videos
The carvins and cam almost sound like a fox body, which I like....
I miss my 05 crew cab short bed 2wd 💯😭😫😢🥺💸💸💸💸💸💯💯💯💯💯💯
I liked hearing the different variations from quite to aggressive. I am a Flaow-Master fan though. Pretty cool clip though

Let it idle
If you buy the stainless muffler, will it weld good to a stock exhaust that’s not stainless?
Awwww mid 90’s to mid 2000’s GM trucks are the best 💯🤙🏾💯😎🤗
99-06 are the best 1st gen 5.3's with no AFM.
You can get 500k out of these engines.
The 6.0 lq4 (basically an all iron ls2) have been documented at 1 million miles on the original engine. Only Toyota has built a 1milion mile gas V8.
Why all this work just to run stock manifolds?
That's what I'm saying too.
he said they were going to put a turbo on it 😅
LS manifolds are basically shorty headers, longtubes give you more top end hp but not really enough to notice during street driving, and you have to tune the engine to get any actual gain from headers so no reason to change if you don't want to tune it
@@AdmiralRustyShackleford that’s complete bullshit lmfao! Don’t sit here and compare a stock garbage ass manifold to a shorty header 🤣!
1st Flowmaster and Carven were the best.
What type of high flow cats do y'all put on that chevy silverado???
Does the high flow cats affect the sound?
The dude in the pedal did not listen at all 😂
😂
I thought about putting one of the x-pipes on my Monte Carlo. Right now it just has headers with true dual pipes and. Where is best position for it and what are the advantages of a x-pipe
9:13 no more revving! 😂😂😂
Part number for high flow cat? Just a guy a in his garage trying to do this builds lol
No gloves or hearing protection for the muffler man under the truck??

The smaller flowmasters outlaws 815425 where the loudest.

I definitely appreciate the comparison!
the vibrant mufflers sounded the best for a daily street ride.
Who did the tuning on it? From Bristol area looking for tuner to do afm delete and tune the btr v2 cam as well
I have 40 series with stage 2 cam,I'm going with the vibrants
They all sound relatively the same. Does anyone still make glass packs or cherry bombs anymore? I have thrush glass packs on mine. Sounds great!
Flowmaster outlaw 15430S the best sound
I think the oval flowmaster flowFX mufflers and no cats would sound killer on that
Carven TR would be perfect!
ultraquiet is the most quiet 👌
Man I love this channel! Just subscribed. I put up a couple videos on my channel of Dynomax 3" Race Bullets and Jones 3" Max Flow if you want to hear the difference. Race Bullets were too "cackly" to me, Jones is deeper.
Let it idle
Vrooooooom ! 😂😂 sounds really good
I have a trailblazer with a btr stage 2 truck cam in a 5.3L I got a flow fx muffler single in single out with a y pipe and it has this like drowning water sound at idle and I don't like it. Would deleting the Y pipe and do a dual in single out sold that problem?
Wow great comparison cam is amazing
I finished my ls swap in my car and would love for y’all to finish the exhaust for me, I’m in the north Nashville area so we can make that work easily
You got it
I'd say a few revs would be sufficient good lord

How is this a "build". It's a scrap 5.3 with a cam and led tails
That custom ladder rack though...just damn.

Well if that’s what you would’ve done, that’s what everyone else should do too.
@@Icutmetal ohh brother, you one of those people
talk to the ✋️
@@albanym Well clearly you’ve got the correct opinion.
Vibrants for sure
Personally like the way the stainless sounds.
I have a loud exhaust I like the ultra quiet
I put a magna flow on the same vehicle and it sounds so good
I did as well. Now I have switched to flowmaster 40's. Is much deeper at idle now, but kinda miss the "roll" sound.
Great Video comparisons
If i was the owner of this truck i would have chosen flowmaster outlaw, but i understand the owner that he wanted to sound perfect to be honest
Should have tried the Gibson MWA
Those Carvens were on backwards
Lose the cross pipe and come out over top of the trans support like the passenger side. Use a 90° X pipe and keep it as close to equal length as possible. His work truck would sound more like a Nascar or Corvette.
Should’ve let it idle for a bit on each muffler
Carven has my vote
Hey will you guys do this with my car so I can decide what I like lol
What high flow cats were used look like slps
I have a serious question I think you guys will know the answer. I have no cats on my 5.3 right now. Will high flow cats make my check engine light stay off and will the fuel trims be back to normal and not run so rich like it is right now
Yes as long as they are good
Magnaflow high flows
Flowmaster takes about a month to break in and they get louder and sound better than brand new from the box
There’s no packing to break in for the flowmasters. They’re just a chambered design.
@@20m340i the Flowmaster Outlaws are a glass pack. But yeah Flowmaster are generally known for their chambered mufflers.
All of them
Would like to see the same comparison on a GM 3.6L. I have a CTS Coupe that needs some love in the exhaust area.
DB will go down ALOT with tailpipes
The last set sounds the best....
She sounds good brother
Flow master sounds the best
Opinions vary.
You mean to you
I’m about to get a 2001 Chevy suburban what would you recommend
Muffler delete
Carvin R Series by a long shot!!!
Flow master 💨💨💨
